We do it all for one very simple reason which is that we are attempting to keep budding audiophiles from falling down the same rabbit hole that you did. Oh and to try and save them lots, lots and lots of MONEY! Now please understand most of my posts and rants are against individual audiophiles but against what I will call the audiophile establishment - the magazines, web sites and manufacturer's marketing departments who throw reason and science under the bus in an effort to make money from fools. If you would like to write something that would change my point of view then please explain to me how a full time magazine editor or writer could possibly afford to own $1000 USB cables, $1000 power cords, $2000 speaker wire, $1500 interconnects (several sets at least), $15000 DACs, $20000 pre-amps. $30000 power amps and $150000 speakers. Inquiring minds want to know.
