How many audiophiles do you need to change a lightbulb?


Only one.

But ten to discuss whether you need a 60W or a 100W bulb.

Ten more to discuss the relative merits of screw-in vs. bayonet fixture.

Ten more to discuss the relative merits of LED and halogen.

Ten more...…………………..

Changing the light bulb is all well and fine but we audiophiles all know that you have to change the room first. It's a must.

The type of bulb natters too. Forget this eco rubbish, I can tell you that NOS light bulbs are best but they're not cheap. Russian / Chinese replacements might well be acceptable....or they might not.

You might need 2 for stereo or perhaps even 4. Mono light is best left to the sun.

And whilst you're at it, don't forget the switch - faders are out!

Of course there are some who will always insist that scented candles are better.


Ah the age old question. I have researched all opinions, trials, studies, controlled lab testing and I have found out the correct answer and there is only this one answer.  The answer is.....  Oh, you thought that I was just going to give you my years of research here.  Not a chance.
