I concur. Especially in cases where the known science says something different than the tweak purveyors, it's up to those purveyors and their proponents to show that their tweaks actually work, not the other way around. As the old saying goes, "there are two sides to every story, but sometimes one side is lying, delusional, or simply wrong". -- totoro squeezebox 3 -> mccormack dna .5 -> audio physic tempo 4 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ totoro's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5935 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29972 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
