My point exactly... who cares and can you prove otherwise in either case? Note that the comparison isn't "A is better than B" nor even "A should be avoided" - simply "I tried both and preferred one". Would it be easier if it was the Benchmark AHB2 vs PrimaLuna ProLogue? There shouldn't be any doubt that there are some pretty significant audible differences likely there!Unimpeachable? Ah, but an opinion put forth with zero evidence to support it,, did he do DBT to ensure his opinion is based in fact, or simply cause his exwife bought him the amp for a anniversary present in 06? Does the amp exhibit some abnormality in it's measurement?
I could do an ABX 100 times of a country song against anything else - and always prefer "anything else" (and 0% probability of guessing). Does it matter if I was raped by a cowboy in 06 or I just hate the sound? Is there a need for evidence in a pure preference? Now if I were saying "no one should like country music because it's not music"... then you'd have plenty of grounds to dispute that opinion.
