Well Del, I guess it's true

I really am not an expert/ connoiseur of fine audio systems. My ex super from the wheelchair joint was in a band when younger, still plays guitar, and fixes and builds guitar amps. He is always sending me some silly website of nonsense beliefs in the "audiophile" world, stuff like "ya gotta have braided speaker wire, etc." By that I mean HE is making fun of. He's pretty well set

Some of the so called sound is pretty suggestive, and lots of the old geezers who are into it can't hear that well anyhow.

Another example is the nonsense about better and best manufacturer runs, brands, and versions of tubes. On some tube type, the internal structure of the tube has to be so and so to make them, uh, "better."
