Nah, the world doesn't need any more TLAs. Just call your new company Placebo Sound and have done with it.

Just curious, why do we believe that soundstage has nothing to do with amplification ? I agree it's unlikely that you would get enough phase distortion from any decent receiver/amp to make a difference (although I wonder if any modern electronics have 20 KHz filters that could play with phase at sub-20 KHz frequencies), wouldn't crosstalk / isolation levels have an effect ? I have also heard that noise levels can impact soundstage at low listening levels, although that was an unsupported opinion.
