yes, fancy cables measure better... marginally. so marginally, as to being totally inaudible as we're talking literally fractions of a decibel. why would i try to "prove you wrong" when that's what i'm talking about? wth you on?
you're telling me my arguments are "ridiculous" when you had to go out of your way to construct an example by using headphones on a speaker amp with no headphone out just to try and prove a point? lol
the audible benefits are super marginal and very very very niche in an already niche category, but can be found even in the speaker world (given by people, even in this very thread, iirc)
i stopped reading here because this is taking "ridiculousness" to whole new highs
the whole point was that calling this amp "the best", and i'm repeating myself for probably the 10th time here, when it's inaudibly better than what people consider "the competition" in roughly 99,999% of the use cases, but is actually audibly worse (less gain, less power i.e. will clip sooner) in a lot of use cases... is counterproductive and is just changing one cult for another.
not to mention that 99,99% of the people into high end audio wouldn't be able to tell the difference in blind tests between this and your average flat fr "big brand" integrated amp with a sinad score of 80-90 with orders of magnitude more features, often at a fraction of the cost
