I'm not getting anywhere, I'm fine & happy where I am, Somewhere in the middle of what I understand as 'Flat or Round Earth' I will, & always have, used my ears to chose my Hi-Fi but I also read the measurements too. I want 'PRAT' but also the 'Hi-Fi' attributes!
LOL... I meant "getting somewhere" in terms of seeing how we (AoS) define the term 'flat-earth'

The systems belonging to Steve and I major more now, sonically and musically, on traditional 'flat-earth principles' than they ever did when we used Naim or Densen - two brands synonymous with the stereotypical 'flat-earth' sonic approach to audio.

That is largely the point we're trying to get across.
