[sdiy] deprogramming needed from audio-DIY

[anthony]

I read a lot of goofy things in audiophile forums. Trouble is I find myself 
believing a lot of it. Like certain runs of JRC brand 4558's from the early 
80's sound really really good in a headphone amp - better than a regular old 
4558 (which I think sounds pretty good for a nice cheap op amp). This is 
example is pretty innocuous. But I find myself saying "ooh another JRC op 
amp!' to myself (please allow myself to introduce... myself...) when I'm 
scrapping stuff.

I was wondering if anyone could share some of the more common ones. Someone 
referred to them in the context of jokes earlier - I'm curious.

Happillly enough I seem to have forgotten all the other examples at the 
moment.
