Re: Get real, Jim McShane !!

Some quotes from Jeff - his OWN WORDS:

"Its YOU cats who are trying to find reasons. I just LAUGH at you, because you all don't know - and yet you THINK you "must" explain it. I NEVER TRIED. I am smart enough to KNOW that I DON'T KNOW WHY. I'm no enginner, I'm a dummy."

Another:

""Gimme scientific proof" is all you say.!! "If I don't have proof, its not true"....... is your mindset !! Don't you understand that audio is beyond anything we can meagerly measure, let alone FULLY reason and explain??"

Another:

"The best device for progress in audio still remains - an open mind and a discriminating ear."

Yet another:

"I TRUST what I can hear but I am suspicious of thinking I really know WHY it sounds that way."

So tell me how you applied those statements YOU made to the layout of the amp being discussed. Or does your grand wizardry only apply when convenient?

Don't try to lead this off track. This has nothing to do with the low DCR discussion.

In light of what you yourself said - how can you sit in judgment of that amp since you've never heard it?

In light of what you said in the first post I quoted above, how can you possibly sit in judgment of the amp? Read that quote again everyone - if that's true then Jeff's judgment of the amp layout is invalid - and by his own admission:

"I am smart enough to KNOW that I DON'T KNOW WHY. I'm no enginner, I'm a dummy."

And if you are saying you can look at the picture of that amp and make judgments about it, then tell me again why I should put any stock in that quote above.

You can't have it both ways Jeff.
