This is not a zero sum game. 

Yes and there's no reason why anyone need be influenced by another's preference.

That's funny coming from a guy that writes for Stereophile! Of course we are influenced by other people's preferences. But, that doesn't mean those preferences are the be all and end all. We all need to listen for ourselves.....

Got it.  I was referring, in specific, to the thread topic. I cannot tolerate headphone listening (except when I must if I am on a long flight).  Headphone and speaker listening are different paradigms and it is unlikely that any argument would have any impact on my opinion.
