Cambridge Audio CXA81 S2 vs Rotel RB 1552 Mkii

I would have tend to have agreed with the majority here, but experience has shown me otherwise.
Perhaps this is not the right place for you? No one here is ever going to believe your feelings even though we can see you believe in them strongly, and you are dead set on not learning how measurements work. Maybe we should just part ways?

Have you read the FAQ? It is the opposite of everything you stand for.

 
but the fault lies in the idea that all amps, mics, speakers
Transducers: microphones, cartridges and speakers ALL sound different. There is nobody on ASR would claim two different speaker designs sound the same or two different microphone designs sound the same.

Line-level electronics, with low noise, low distortion and a flat frequency response, level-matched to within 0.01V will be indistinguishable in a blind test.
