That's just completely unfair: it's not that the people against things
like the s-booster are anti-progress, it's more like they are anti
wasting time and money on things that have been clearly shown to make
absolutely no difference in the sound.

Progress comes from correctly identifying exactly where best to
concentrate one's efforts. Think about all those years wasted as
alchemists tired to change lead into gold versus all the progress that
came once that worthless pursuit was abandoned. Same principles apply
in the advancement of audio, as in a bad power supply should be
replaced with a good power supply but beyond that there just isn't any
real improvement. Replacing a good power supply, as in one that doesn't
introduce noise into the audio chain, with a "better" power supply just
doesn't enhance the sound enough, if at all, to justify the cost.

Progress has nothing to do with it.
