Winston-- You can get scoffer-baloney like this first paragraph from anyone who doubts anything on the Planet. It's easy to splat it out there-- it costs them nothing...!! Anyone can barf on anything.It stinks.
The simple truth is-- some things work, some don't. Emotional outbursts like the first paragraph ARE baloney-- and will not help good audio equipment to get built.
Your job-- as someone engaged in making audio electronics work well-- is-- to get it to work well!
Take a look at the SECOND paragraph though-- the man says to get good Industrial parts for your equipment. I agree totally with him on that-- it's part of how it's done right.
"Dress your leads" can mean anything, just don't ty-rap them together to "look neat". Good wiring layout WILL look neat, but each wire will be suspended in 3 dimensions-- not placed near or tied to-- anything. That's also an Art-- it is very necessary to get top performance.
"look to where the money leads" and "avoid demagoguery" are cop-outs that are designed to mislead and confuse-- and are the products of a negative attitude towards honest people. Both have absolutely nothing to do with obtaining the best parts and using them correctly-- which is the subject here.
This kind of attitude being shoved in-your-face IS "demagoguery"-- judging people or objects without having ever met or used them.
The advice concerning obtaining good Industrial parts stands, however, it is good advice.... and is what we do.
