So how many people oil their snakes? It does seem hard to get a good
Hi Fi system nowdays with all the snake oil parts as you have just so cheap

any useful specs now days -- THD is done into a dummy load never a
real speaker. What about IM distortion too? PS. I listen to regular music;
classical I find too heavy.
Gotta love it when the golden-eared folks apply
RF transmission-line
theory to speaker cabling. My scepticism towards audiophile
snake-oil comes via heredity (my late father spent 40+ years in the
industry).
The snake-oil industry?
