That's why Rotel 1062 is such a bless... how can you possible know what accuracy is when, as you rightly put it, the industry deliberately attempt to get a desired sound?

You say you don't like accuracy, but you never listen to it... did you?

As for the speakers and Cd players not being accurate (not so much with some CD players) I assure you that a virtually perfect amplifier, like Tube Dude's amp, still does and will do a MAJOR difference in any system. I guess every system has its bottleneck...

We have to start from somewhere... try the 1062!
