In your opinion, who has been the most influential person in the history of high-end audio? Was it an engineer or inventor? An audio retailer? How about a reviewer or public relations person?

I would imagine that most of us have spent our hard earned dollars on our equipment to try and increase our emotional connection to the music we love.

From my perspective, I tend to spin music from genres where the lyrics require minimal processing from my brain (blues) or where there are no lyrics (jazz instrumentals).

While artists such as Bob Dylan and many of the other great "wordsmiths" are obviously a valid way for people to get an emotional hook into their music, for me... I want to process my music with the least amount of effort.

Using "error correction" in iTunes - yes or no for best fidelity?

In JA's article

http://www.stereophile.com/mediaservers/1008servers/index.html

he states: "We recommend that, for serious listening, audiophiles use uncompressed audio file formats such as WAV or AIF"

There is no mention of using error correction or not - will this affect the overall quality of the sound?
