I believe things that physically move (voice-coils, speaker cones, disc drives) will run in - like a car engine or motorcycle suspension.

I believe things have an optimum operating temperature window. This is achieved some time after switch on.

I believe components age and go out of specification. Occasionally out-of-spec components may change to being in-spec - but that is luck not design.

I believe that voltage drops at changes betwen metal types can create oxidation and change the electrical behaviour of a connection. Sometimes that is audible.

I believe that one gets psycho-acoustically more accustomed to the sound of a system over time.

I would never express my beliefs in the way that web-site does.


In the spirit of Spinaltap, I would like to confirm that I am not involved in the corrupt theft of a global sport.
