My 375 horsepower 350 runs on 87 octane, but it
kicks ass on 93 or higher. And it definitly sounds
different.
If I wanted to always run 87 octane in it, then
I wouldnt have spent the exTRA BUCKS ON the "goodies
on the inside"
My point is that any high performance equipment
(hot rod, audio, whatever) works best when all
the right components are used. We have all heard
the saying "its only as good as the weakest link"
Would I use "2.00 rca's on a walmart system, sure,
would I use the same ones on a Krell system and
B&W 802's? I dont think so.

I don't quite agree with this analogy. 87 and 93 octane are proven to perform differently in their intended application. A simple dyno test will show the difference. Try and find any way to reliably compare the audible difference in copper.
