I have read the "wars" between he and Dunlavy along with all
the "stuff" that went on when Schweikert's place in upstate NY got
flooded or something like that. And how he went out of business. Now, he
is back in business (for better or worse). His use of "techno-speak"
eludes my primitive brain, and I wouldn't know if what he is saying is
accurate or not. I leave that to the much more technically educated to
decide. What I do is listen to music. And I enjoy it.



War is something that occurs between opponents who are at least
roughly matched in ability. The Dunlavy/Schweikert affair was a
slaughter more reminiscent of 'Desert Storm'......................


It most definitely appeared that way. Again, I respect Dunlavy and what
he has produced. If he put it together in a garage, it would not have
mattered to me (since it seems that a lot of "hi-end" audio equipment
started that way). Schweikert's achievement with the VR4's "speak" for
themselves. How he achieved this product (and others), for me, doesn't
really matter to me either. As long as it does what it was intended to
do, THAT is what matters to me.
BTW.... anyone familiar with MBL CD players?
