RE: What you do claim

"that only *marketing* separates mid-fi from the best available. Such is not the case."


Obviously there are some hi-fis better than others. My beef is that the hi-fi world did fine without marketing terms like "mid-fi" and it wasn't until vain and deluded Baby Boomers came into dough that such nonsense (and much other nonsense) started. I don't call a modest hi-fi a "mid-fi". I also don't call patch-cords "interconnects".

"To suggest that the finest systems, however, are merely a marketing spin, ignores reality"

Obviously. I own the finest systems myself and there's no marketing spin involved at all, at least not since 1976 or so.
