Can we please have this fight in just one thread? :-)

Personally, I'd like to have someone explain to me in as straight as possible terms why and how (electronically) the $1500 players are so far superior to $100 players that us mere mortal poor bastards cannot possibly ever hear good sound.

In other words, we've heard from engineers (albiet second and third hand, in the case of JohnK, who has linked to many articles) on one side, but not the other. Give me graphs correlated with charts of human hearing tolerances and limits.

As for that last sentence, why not? Is music something so mystical we cannot hope to understand it with science? Or is it a collection of waves interpreted by the sacks of neurons in our heads?
