Dan, this is very helpful. To an extent, I have built my system around your preferences. Actually, I believe they are my preferences, too. That's one reason your writings are so helpful. Based on the few components I have heard that you reviewed, I think we have very similar tastes in sound. Lucky me, of course, I can read your reviews as an ersatz audition of the component. Geez, Dan, I could go on and on about this, but I fear being demoted from a devoted admirer to just a silly fanboy
Thank you,
ron
