If you're trying to justify to yourself NOT spending any extra money for the TP, then good luck to you in finding those people who cannot hear difference between the TP and the SB:)
But not from me - who'd spent significant amount of time from stock SB to stock TP to all kinds of mods; and not from the people who have bought the TP and thought that the TP is comparable to a $6k CDP..:) Not that any of these opinions are useful. In fact, I keep reminding people that, opinons are fun to read, and that's where it stops. There's no such thing as "reliable listening test" except your own ears. If you're going to base any purchase decision based on reading the opinions of the others, I'm afraid you're driving on the wrong lane. opaqueice;179419 Wrote: > I'd be catious here.
