Actually, as long as you are speaking in very loose generalizations, that and the subsequent statements are true. Whether you accept the conclusion drawn from it is another matter. I hardly think however, that his reply is worthy of the derision you inflict.

Of course there are transformers that don't roll of starting at 8k, but look at the iron used in most 50's and 60's hifi stuff, and you'll see that this guy isn't too far off the mark.

fidelity transformer tested by itself rolls off the very high end

beginning about 8khz, and rolls of the low end beginning about 50 Hz.
