Ball lightening is an unexplained phenomenon. I have witnessed it twice. Just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. This post is sinking and going no where.

How come that every tweak is positive? Is it possible that something actually influences the sound in a non-favorable way? Is burn-in of the cables always something that should be positive, or does it have a negative impact on the sound, too? It might have not been said explicitly, but all the reviews mentioning it are glowing. It is always for better. What are the chances?
