  We must accept that the human body is equipped with very poor measurement instruments in the form of eyes and ears, etc.  Fortunately, the human brain is exceptionally powerful in compensating for this poor signal quality.  If you doubt this, please let me know and I can provide you with some experiments to prove how your brain fills in the missing information and vainly attempts to correct for errors in measurement (negative feedback if you prefer).  The downside is that this correction process is so automatic that we grow to ignore it and some would even deny it exists.  As our measurement instruments age or we suffer from mental illnesses the brain must apply even more corrections and the overworked brain is further stressed.  In order to maintain the self esteem required to prevent breakdown the conscious mind often compensates for incorrect information by externalizing the sources of the errors.  In other words blaming the world for ones ever increasing biological shortcomings, inflating the ego, and convincing oneself that the rest of the world is wrong, deaf, stupid, or whatever.
What particularly interesting in this view is that you put yourself outside the pattern that requires mental corrections…

  Subsequent to my initial posting I have spent a couple of hours reviewing a small fraction of your nearly 5,000 posts.  I am sincerely concerned about your state of mental health and hope that you take some time to consider that you may be in need of a slight “tune up” … 
Yes, you are right. Are you selling bibles, cocaine or the erectile dysfunction medications?

   How many cats do you live with?  Have you ever had complaints from neighbors about your animals?  If you have more than 3 cats you may have animal hoarding tendencies.  If you are not familiar with this condition please do some research on the subject and consider that you may suffer from the syndrome.
I have 17 cats. I do not know what the hoarding tendency is but each of my Cats has very cognitive function. 3 of them I use to bite of my neighbors. 2 of them I use for sex. Another 5 are my private security team – they keep Jews, Negros, Mickey Mouse’s dolls and Homosexuals away from me. 3 other cats care my guns with me when I leave my house to make my annual trip to pharmacy. Another 4 cats I use for my weekly reinstating the Pharsalus battle on my kitchen floor… I hope you understand me, brother

    How is your income derived?  You stated that you were a software engineer, but your website is so large I question whether you have the time to hold a professional job while maintaining a normal social life, allowing time for physical exercise, etc.  Have you ever had your employment terminated despite your protestations that you were a superior employee?   Since you clearly have the funds to pursue the audio hobby I’m wondering if you are living off an inheritance or other funds while living a reclusive life in isolation of healthy human interactions and relationships.
Income!  What income? The employment terminated? Is any other ways possible? Do people in your part of universe merry a job?

     Are you able to review and understand your postings from the past?  You demonstrate an extensive body of knowledge regarding many aspects of music.  However, frequently paragraphs within your postings are incompressible despite repeated readings.  Some of this may be due to careless spelling and diction or English being your second language, but so much of it seems to be nonsense to those outside your world. 
Not always.

     While you are demonstrably convinced of your infallible expertise, the truth is your statements often contradict the accepted and undeniable body of knowledge of physics, acoustics, electromagnetic and acoustic wave propagation, signal theory, and electronic signal reproduction.
….and something suggests me do not have curiosity in your point of view regarding your “undeniable body of knowledge”…

      Are you generally happy?  Do you have hourly or daily mood swings?  I congratulate you on a very comprehensive website presumably dedicated to the enjoyment of music reproduction.  Unfortunately, most of your postings are full of virulent attacks on outsiders and attempts to prove your own omniscience.  A healthy mind cannot be so obsessed with proving oneself as the holder of all truths while blaming and lamenting the exterior world for being so inferior.  If music makes you happy, why are you so full of anger and resentment?
I think if I talk with you about music then I might tune to be suicidal

      Again, I apologize for my earlier posting as it was an attack and I was wrong to send it without taking the time to better understand your situation.  I’m sure most of us in the outside world appreciate your monumental efforts in creating such an admirable tome.  I only wish it were more constructive and conveyed the joy of music instead of the wasted attempts of an obsessive compulsive to prove his superiority. 
There is no apology necessary. I have a demand however. The only one regulation that gardens this site is that posts must be in relation to the subject of the thread’s topics.  I agree and appreciate your initial post – it was in subject. Then you went soft on me and I do not think it related to SS amps anymore. I have no interests in your psychological confessions. Really is the subject of beholder’s eye mindset. If your perception does not fell belong this site a valuable for youself level of “advanced audio and evolved music reproduction techniques” then feel free to move on.  Let see how “psychologically attached” you will be to this proposal…
