Maybe Tony who brings these things to our attention is in on the clickbait income stream? fair do's, we're all here voluntarily...
If you're referring to me (TonyRPH) and not Tony1963 - I can state quite categorically that I have no financial interests in any of this snake oil.

I can see how you think I might have a vested interest though!

We probably agree more than we disagree!

But as you said, “… after a certain level” and that is fairly important.

To others, yeah yeah, I’ve been around long enough to understand testing methods. I’ve also been around long enough to know that I like my system, I love listening to the music, and I don’t have long enough left on this planet to make trying different bits of wire a good use of my remaining years.

Lots of assumptions can be made about anyone who likes to try different things and spend what the rest of us think is an obscene amount of money on items. Who cares? None of the people I know who do that were born into money. They’ve studied hard, generally in science and/or engineering, made good money by being smart, have run successful businesses by being clear-minded and just bloody clever. But yeah, just slag em off as if they’d just left prep school with a £5m inheritance.
Why on Earth are you trying to bring wealth or social class into this?

You both seem to have an interest for sure.
Maybe we're all missing out on commission? :-)

To me, it's fun and thought provoking, no offence intended when I challenge people.
