...on any given day there could be so many variables that affect the users oppinion.

was this double blind tested using different equipment but with the same settings? was the same audio material used for each setup? were listening modes involved? what crossover freq. was used? was the user in a good mood or bad? does the user have any bias torwards specific manufacturers? ...and the list goes on...

Granted the oppinion could be spot on...but like MPDIEHL said, different people have different tastes.

Granted im a Pioneer Elite man myself, but the Yamaha RX-V863 is a stellar performer.

my spark-o-matics don't have the same "punch" if I don't use 12 guage Monster cable.......
