…Is when they call me idiot then they attract my attention. Wojciech Pacuła, the 6Moon’s reviewer extraordinary published the following:

So, when I read a text such as the one below, I just give up, because it either demonstrates a complete lack of understanding of what audio is and what it is not, or—quoting the text below—idiocy:

[… ] It is NOT THE PURPOSE OF A PREAMPLIFIER to inject different colorations into sound to mask out the imperfections of the previously located components. By enabling users to do pick the tubes for different sources and putting those objectives into the initial design is an indication that either the designers were Morons who had no idea what they were doing or the unit was meant to be used by Morons.

You know what it reminds me? There was a guy in California, I do remember his name now. He is an orchestra conductor and he has a web site where he writes about different aspects of audio. His writing is not foolish and generally is good if you definition of audio is a Sony receiver from “Best Buy”. The Conductor Guy one way contacted me and informed me that he read my site and he would like to give me a tip. He instead that I should not be listening any audio if playback does not employ 1/6 octave parametric equalizer. I asked him if he was kidding but he was grave serious.

I understand that in the world of Wojciech Pacuła he need to have a PREAMPLIFIER that “corrects” or “balance” the specifics of individual front end by having an individual buffer for each line with own option for tube rolling. However, I am considering this appraise absolutely foolish. When I say that in today world many manufactures do not produce audio for sake of listening benefits but ONLY for sake of reviewer objectives I meant exactly the case like this. It is not surprise that Mr. Pacuła loves it, I am sure my Conductor Guy would nominate the preamp designer for Noble Prize. I am nominating Wojciech Pacuła for lower entry of Draven’s evolution hierarchy – he is an audio industry reviewer. Keep roll the tubes, they were mane for the people like you….
