Dave, you wrote:
Better audio quality has NEVER been the goal of the engineers since.You seem to differentiate between EE's hired to design audio and EE's doing it for themselves. Do you think there are no EE's building valve amps? I meant to refer to EE's building their own, and not industry led folks.
I do like your ref to WE/Bell and their results obtained( by EE's ) when operating with few financial constraints. These gentlemen were working on discovering the best audio. Do you really think that any sort of positive reputation would have been bestowed on them if they hired unskilled laborors?
Ultimately it's all about working to spec and budget. I know what my spec is, and it seems to be rather expensive( and heavy ) to achieve. I think the fault you describe is of the consumer and not the engineers. They're just following orders; they don't have any knowlege of the direction their work is actually taking us.
