Hifi sounds better , shock.

I can almost hear Don LaFontaine saying: "From a long line of very successful hifi amplifier designs came Arkless, the Foo Sleigher.

Rad ,you might look at the definition of sleigh and slay.

If I wasn't a specialist in the field then obviously there wouldn't be much weight to my argument!

Now that's brilliant. If one is not a specialist in audio one is not entitled to a valid opinion even if it is founded on blind tests.

You seem to forget that other specialists in audio with credentials perhaps more impressive than yours have a different view.

Regarding USB cables for example:

Perhaps you should point that out to Arkless:

"It's Arkless Electronics actually but it's too long to have as a user name apparently... and yes I do my best to sleigh foo wherever I find it"

You have linked to an advertisment by a company that makes 'audiophile' USB cables, did you intend to post a link to an engineer?

Oh, sorry, I had the impression they did have some engineers working there, including Larry Ho.

Or do you mean that for an engineer to have a valid opinion he must be unemployed or just work pro bono?

For one thing you won't be able to tell one mains lead from another in a blind test. There is no difference.
For another I note that by providing a link to foo of the highest order you merely give credence to the saying that it's better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt.
Right then... quick addition to the ignore list to make.

(...)it's better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt.

For once I agree 100%.

PS I was able to spot differences between USB cables in a blind test.

PPS don't know if I'll be able to sleep well after knowing that you have added me to your ignore list.

It's quite easy when you have a sleigh.
