Your own statements are full of implication that any & every serious audiophile ought to prefer SET + high efficiency speakers: this is ridiculous, and insulting. As Mr. P suggests, it's made only more tedious by the relentless insistance that AN is necessarily the best of the best.
Yes but then people who get insulted usually are the people that have never bothered to listen to any of it. Rather than get all defensive about it why not hear a few elite samples of it for a period of time. But I get it the guys on AA several years back got on me for not trying such systems and I ate my words and sold my speakers.
