Well yes, except that in this case it's nothing to do with spending
money on gear.

One of the claims made is that a CD ripped at one speed sounds
different to the same CD ripped at a different speed, when played back
on exactly the same system, even though they verified that the data in
the two rips is identical. Given that there are several asynchronous
buffers between the hard disk platter and the digital stream delivered
to the DAC, this makes precisely zero sense. (Not close to zero -
exactly zero). What ARE these guys smoking?
