I would imagine Simon will be discussing this issue at the source, he will not be responding to your views just giving information regarding the test, maybe lay a few myths that often circulate on forums, everyone is susceptible, even the most intelligent amongst us.
I have had the pleasure of dealing with this company on numerous occasions, they will answer honestly & accurately to my request as do any company I have dealt with over the years.
Just for clarity, I would imagine I was one of the first to lay a complaint at The Russ Andrews front door many years ago, I too was an absolute sceptic as I am with most things in life, i decided to try it out instead, it's much more fun.
OK. It will certainly be useful if he can arrange to let people now have access again to the documents I originally referenced and gave URLs for. Plus it would be welcome to have more info on the tests run at the time.
But my key points remain:
1) That the results presented to us/me at the time are consistent with the standard model of a mismatched line. i.e. nothing particularly surprising, or really needing any new 'effects'. beyond that.
2) That the measurements were done on a bench setup without much evidence wrt how likely that would be to represent a typical home setup in use. Particularly given the variability factors I've mentioned.
And to repeat something I've said before for the sake of clarity: I'm not doubting or questioning the honesty or intent of those involved. I'm interesting in the science and engineering and allowing people to judge that as a possible basis for making their own informed choices.
