Its cool if you guys live with stock patch and power chords. Everybody spends their money different ways. I have been in this hobby for 40 years and know that EVERYTHING matters. From the vibrations from a power supply that my Stillpoints may clean up to a death grip receptacle, all the small differences add up. The room is the largest qualifier and I have a pretty much golden ratio room. Together with the Personas being a very transparent speaker my system may be able to convey subtle cues that less resolving systems gloss over. I have never heard 2 power chords sound the same in my system. If you guys are around Lake St.Clair area in Mich come on by. We can have a beer and you can prove to me I am nuts
Appreciate your good humor about it.
