yesteryear?? Peeshaw. I'm in Dude, Whoaa! Merv: How've you been? Spicoli: Outrageous, Merv. Nice to be here. I feel great! Merv: I was going to say... your eyes look a little red. Spicoli:I've been swimming, Merv. .. Seriously, Merv, everything is great. I was thinking about picking up some hash this weekend, maybe going up to the mountains.

My father liked the orginal, Shaw and Matthua have it all over Travolta and Washington. No over acting in the 1974 version. Gesundheit.

Whoa... around my neck of the woods, very sad. -
I prefer to fine tune myself, while I listen to music.

Can you provide any examples of caps that measure the same, but sound different? That would be the first time I've heard that claim. I've come across caps with the same capacitance that sound very different, but those differences can easily be accounted for by other measurements (whether it be the Q, dissipation factor, ESR, temp coefficients, microphonics, etc...). I want to make a point and I really mean no disrespect by it, but since you mentioned you're not an engineer and don't really care to be (nothing wrong with that), I kinda find it amusing that someone not familiar with measurements has the audacity to say that hearing and measuring never correlate. In fact, it's really the same irony as the engineer saying you don't hear any difference because of the measurements he's taken If you've not done the measurements yourself, then I really can't see how one can make any qualitative comments about measuring....including the fact of things measuring the same. Btw, the same goes for wire....any time I've heard a cable make a difference, it's been readily quantifiable with existing measurements. You just gotta make sure you're taking a meaningful measurement....for instance, the gauge of the wire isn't meaningful....nor is the color or the factory it was made in, or the price, etc... I also wanted to throw out a quick thought.....if you can hear large differences between wire, then isn't it possible that there is something wrong with the system? Systems are designs with specific input and output impedances with the goal of negating any effects from the wire. If the sound changes with the wire, then the gear has failed at one of the most fundamental design goals. I think many would be surprised by just how much "audiophile gear" out there doesn't even come close to adhering to the standards.....and I think a lot of the system synergy stuff is a direct result of all that ambiguity. I just wanted to throw that thought out there as it really helps my engineering mind rationalize some of the adament audiophile claims. Btw, I also agree with the notions that some differences aren't necessarily readily heard in a quick A/B. You need to have source material exciting the area of difference in order to hear the differences. Music is all over the place so as we dial in smaller and smaller things, there is less time where the difference can even be heard.... Dr. Look you're not talking to just plain Jim, this is HiFi Jim, the whole hifi is part of his persona. He hears things and more importantly he hears things from his cables, sure he is not an engineer, he didn't stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night, but that is ok. Heck I spent the last 2 months working in a lumberyard. He does not want to be bothered by science or numbers, just music being delivered by shiny great looking cables, so whats wrong with that? Nothing by my book. Just my .02 from a hopeful Kimber Rep, I need this new job, cause the lumberyard sucks and I hate splinters.

What? You mean grass does not grow to be just 2 inches tall? You actually have to cut it? I say BS on that one!
