I think one of the reasons today's audio gear is so "bad" has a lot to
do
with the fact that hi-fi audio is not a popular hobby any more.
The difference is that a good $500 amp from the 70's can often be found
at yard sale prices today. Many were built very well and still meet spec.
So the real issue becomes a $50 (used) amp WAY outperforming a modern
$500 amp...and possibly equal to a modern $4000 amp. For my money....
Sure, quite possible. But how does that apply to the assertion that today's
gear is "bad", simply because S/H gear might be cheaper?
