What's the difference between these statements?

>It is the golden ear wackos who claim all components sound different ... but have no proof beyond "I know what I hear".<

And

The burden of proof is on the person making the claim, which is the mantra of every good objectivist, yourself included. Logically I don't disagree with this statement although in practice I accept no such burden.

What's the difference? A lot, on the surface. But let's dig:

When objectivists are asked for proof that all wire sounds the same, they correctly respond that there is no way they can prove this because to do so would require them comparing each and ever wire in each and every system.

Now it appears you're asking us to prove that all components sound different. Unless I'm mistaken, we have the same problem of proof for the same reason. There's no way we could prove that all components sound different. I figured that now that you're The King (thenkya - thenkya verra mush - thenkya!) perhaps you can explain this to me, Yer Highness! And you're right - being king of something isn't necessarily a good thing. The Bonzo Dog Doodah Band sang a song called "King of Scurf" which was about a guy with a hellacious amount of dandruff. :)
