In Reply to: Re: I've heard significant differences in ICs, when I did not want to. posted by Dogface1956 on June 28, 2006 at 16:11:05:
But I have clearly heard the difference between the ICs that I own and those that have been loaned to me by dealers or given to me as freebies with a purchase. Some of the freebies have been really good.Count your blessings if you can't hear the difference and just be happy. It doesn't mean there isn't a difference, it only means you can't hear the difference. Remember, people still exist who believe all amplifiers (with similar specs) sound alike. So each to their own.
I can't hear the difference between cleaning solutions either. ;)
