Default The Phallacy Of High Dollar Cartridges

The LP is only so good as a medium of signal (don't be like the ass-
sniffers at one local audio saloon and say "INFORMATION") transfer and
preservation. Modern high dollar phono carts often cost more than the
cutter heads used to cut the all-time classic albums (at the time they
were new, adjusted for inflation) but really the curve of diminishing
returns strikes early in the price point shuffle.

Boon thinks price and performance in phono cartridges is inexorably
and somewhat linearly related. Arny hates vinyl so much that he no
longer can function in addressing the issue. Boon and Arny are like
the Republicans and Democrats. The small percentage of people William
Pierce (and absolutely aside from his beliefs on certain groups one
may disagree with) correctly called "the thinking minority" either
don't vote , vote third party, or vote only under protest for either
major party which are both more alike than different.

Republicans and Democrats, that's what these two are like. They are
really just the same. Neither seems likely to produce progress.
