Long ago I asked fundamental questions on audio components (I was a practicing scientist for ten years). I quickly realized that the published parameters and explanations frequently bared little bearing on sonic reality.
I have been startled at the impact of cables, interconnects and power cords. Nordost interconnects have been the very best I have ever heard in my system (look under my ID)… but I had to take them out because they cost as much as my component ($17K) and one of the worst… an $8K interconnect that for some reason fought with my system.
One of the the most cost effective purchases I have made for my system was a $2K Audio Quest Hurricane power cord for my amp. I am sure the more expensive Dragon would sound better… I have to save up.
I gave up long ago (45 years) thinking I could logic this out. You have to systematically evaluate stuff of appropriate cost to determine what works… or if you really want an explaination talk to an electron.
