My God did no one even bother to read the smiley?The thing is the two
main protagonists are the very two who defended this "debating?" the
most.Of course an amplifier is a complex beast that is unquestionable
and without differing opinions there would be no advancement. This is
probably a pointless thread,I just had to let it all hang out!
I don't suppose that it will make any difference though.I am genuinely
sorry if I've insulted any of your sensibilities and I did not intend to
be any kind of policeman but I did have a side bet with someone about
the reaction!Thanks for the ride and now back to the technical debate...

Very :) :)
