At this level playing field, every single little things matter.
My most recent experience being one single wrong fuse (highly regarded audiophile ones btw.), disrupted the whole system (skewed the tonal balance, akin to mild v-slope applied on eQ). Many grating listening sessions and sleepless nights waiting for it to supposedly break, peace only returned after the original was re-inserted.
This is only but one example, there are myriad of others. So I'd only pass judgement on speakers/equipments which I own or had long term exposure to ~ yet, then again are still subjective opinions. Man, this hobby is complicated, more so for an ocd like me.
