Actually I haven't. That's why I asked.

OK, you don't want to be responsive. That's fine.

I am NOT perfectly aware. I don't think I've EVER read anything from
you regarding hear-to-head dbts of CD players. The only thing I
remember from you is something about having a lesser Denon CD player
in your kitchen (lesser than the one I had for years, that is).

No, you're not obliged to supply anything. And if asking you about
details of controversial statements is "whining", well then Stewart,
that's a perceptual problem from you. If want to bring your ground axe
to this discussion, you're welcome to. But, absent any relevant
details, I'll just take your comments as unsupported opinion.
