Seems like something to celebrate, to me. Actually, the field is quite crowded. Breaking in won't be easy. You may be integrested in a recent Stereophile review of a $350,000 powert amp. Performance and specs were mediocre to poor. Had it cost, say, $1000, it would have been pooh poohed by the venerable reviewer. Did he tell you this or did you read his mind? To most of us it's obvious that the OP was speculating. Sorry that this shading of meaning flew over your head, Scott. Obviously he was speculating. He stated it as fact though. I guess my sarcasm towards his attitude went right over your head. Every time you try to look smart you end up looking stupid. Since it cost a seriously obscene (not to say, ridiculous) amount of money, the reviewer went out of his way to justify the price... Or maybe he liked the sound. Sighted evaluation, right? ;-) Yeah. So? Didn't you evaluate your speakers that way? I read Stereophile for amusement and this was one of their best efforts, right next to their review of the Hacro $25,000 (or was it $24,000?) amp whose silence (so they claimed) was better than the silence of other, less expensive amps.. All this talk about prices of amps and yet you waste your money on a magazine you don't like. Somehow most of us perceive a tiny difference between Stereophile's $12.97 subscription price and the $25,000 price of a pair of Halcro monoblocks. Does that mean 12.97 spent on something one doesn't like isn't a waste of money? Once again your attempt to make a logical argument leaves you looking foolish. Apparently $24,987.03 means nothing to an award-winning Hollywood makeup artist. Well then good for you, Scott! No, it means something even to this award winning makeup artist. Probably not as much as it does to a loser living his life on Usenet (that would be you if you didn't get it) but it still is a meaningful amount of money to me. It explains why you were so willing to waste your money on sueing me for libel, I guess. It didn't seem like a waste of money until I fully realized just how small an impact your words have on the world. Then it was clear to me that it was a waste of money. Funny that you would take so much pride in being so unimportant. Scott Wheeler |
