The question should be asked:
should the opinion of someone who says that all beers (IPA VS stouts included) taste the same be taken when seeking a brew to match your meal? The answer is of course not. Listen to the guy who says that there are differences, and which flavor will compliment your steak, and which to match the hot-dogs at the ball game.

aah, but here lies the "rub":
when actual amplifier comparisons are made like this people sit up and listen:
sp supra VS zana (original, not deux)
sp MPX3 VS dynalo
sp MPX3 VS CI audio VHP-2
The impressions of the reviewer are noted and listened to. Our impressions and preferences dont always agree, but when the amps are given their fair shot against eachother you usually see a fairly civil discussion.
has anyone noticed that the OP promised a review, but did not give one, or even an answer to which tubes he had running in his amp?
When amplifier comparisons based on price alone, how long it takes the builder to do anything, and the like are made it is nothing but bullying and name calling.
Something that IS interesting about singlepower compared to a couple other amp builders that HAVE gone into the memory of headfi (even while still building a good quality product) after their amps got trashed is that people are ALWAYS trying to find a fault with singlepower, and there are things to point at and laugh about. But its never been the sound quality.
