Some good ideas come from trial and error, and usually the best ones become known due to the error. I've also found that technological breakthroughs happen not from the constant improvement of the leading technology, but the stepping back and looking at something in the past and making it better with currant resources.

For some stupid reason, modern man is so arrogant that he thinks if he can't figure something out then his predecessors just got lucky...

Fact is Audio Designers are always better with age unless they studied the old guys and their methods from a young age. Why should it be different in ancient Memphis than in Modern Memphis?
