Trust your own ears....end of debate. Ignore what is written and ignore what others say.

Written statements from M ? you're joking right ? Totally impossible to guarantee what you will ever hear. Human perceptions....100's of books on that going back to Socrates or one of his mates.

Cost / benefits ? Anyone that already spends money on 8xx M gear has had to deal with this already regardless of the current offers. To some HH, they had 8xx and traded down as they didn't find it was better. Others would not live without their 8xx. Cupholder to some; prized possession to others.

Others will have to have it all because it exists regardless.

+1 no more cars or tyres.
