Technical and scientific discussion of amps, cables and other topics.

You've been posturing so long

you can't even remember the question! Let's back up the thread a week and examine what you said originally that triggered my question in this post

Of course when one says "bad sound = bad system" he is going to touch a nerve with this crowd.

None of your references make the "bad sound = bad system" correlation. Obviously, there are bad recordings to be found. And Morricab pointed that good systems can't fix that:

but an accurate system should tell you that they are bad recordings without sugar coating them

Bad sound can result from bad recordings, bad systems, or the combination of bad recordings and bad systems. Bad sound, therefore, does not necessarily mean that the cause is a bad system. I played a Dead Can Dance recording on the phenomenal Sea Cliff system. While I like the music, HP wasn't very enthusiastic hearing much of it. Indeed, the system quickly revealed that the recording was utterly flat in perspective. Was that a "bad system" because the recording was bad? Of course not!
