Re: Again...

Jacques, would you use a Porsche on bumpy roads and in the rain? Get real! A Porsche might drive in the rain and on bumpy roads, but being low to the ground, it is difficult to see as far, and the low ground clearance means that you will be hitting bottom more than you would like. Still, Porsches are sold, and are great to drive on good days and reasonably good roads.
It is the same in hi end audio. We do not think that too many audio products are happily coping with AC-RFI, but one does not expect much from the cheaper models, so we just ignore it. Even if you cleaned up the input RFI in many components, the switching power supplies in the component itself could generate more internal RFI than ANY outside source. Then you get that mid-fi sound. Please learn about the audio business before making strong comments condemning our approach to audio design.
