This hobby is for hedonists, not scientists

I am not an hedonist nor a scientist...I dont indulge in gear price and appearence or in engineering ecstasy...

I just wanted to optimize a low cost system to enjoy music more...

I suspect the OP  is more like me than anything else...

More knowledgeable on many aspects  than me for sure if i remember his posts...

Thank the gods. Scientist have no business in this arena. 

I am neither. But I sure ain't an audiophile

@newton_john  - Sir, I know how you handle that test equipment... 

What do you mean? I have no test equipment. 

Excuse me..., I'm a retired scientist.
