**That is not what you stated previously. Do you now admit that a short 
circuit is not zero Ohms?

**Good. Nor do I. There is absolutely nothing mysterious about the 
amplifiers I referred you to. Nothing whatsoever. Just good, solid 
engineering. Oops, I forgot. You don't have a clue about how amplifiers 
actually work, do you? ALL amplifiers are a mystery to you. Some of us, 
however, have some education into the functioning of electronic equipment. I 
suggest you get off your butt and do likewise. After you've spent 4 years 
studying electronics and 30 odd years with hands on experience, we'll be 
able to converse at the same level.

**Of course you don't! You're an idiot. I've patiently explained how SOME 
cables can affect SOME loudspeakers in SOME systems, many times. You can 
ignore facts and figures all you wish. It still does not make you right.

**And yet, you speak from a position of extreme ignorance. You have no 
technical abilities to understand what sets some amps apart form others. You 
have no experience with the amp in question anyway.

**Exactly. It has as much relevance to all of us, as your comments about 
audio equipment. You have no real knowledge about what you speak.

**About the lies you wrote about me. About your incorrect assumptions. About 
much, much more.
