That's terrific!
I hear they're coming out with a set of ten ton headphones for Paul Packer.

I've already started building a reinforced steel structure to support
them. Can't wait. :-)

they covered "high end" audio rather stupidly

anyone who knows the very high end, knows that the finest audio systems in
the world utilize tubes (valves)

DUH!

(and that ain't Krell, etc)

"Among the best amplifiers, according to Franassovici, are Krell, a
Connecticut-based manufacturer whose Evolution component series would
require an outlay of almost US$ 150,000 -- a price he says most hi-fi
enthusiasts would be happy to pay."

What's missing from this sentence? Other than common sense, that is.

No, the words "well-heeled" between "most" and "hi-fi".

I fearlessly predict that on the same day that Packer or
Middius could pay $150,000 for Krell audio gear, there will
be huge piles of snow in downtown San Diego.

Turdborg tries desperately to score a debating trade" point.

Speaking for myself, you're absolutely right. If I had money to burn, I'd never
spend that much on an amplifier. I'd spend $10K at most and donate the rest to
charity.

Now I'll predict something: If Arnii Kroofeces suddenly became a millionaire,
his pedophilia victims' families would line up to sue him.

Lessee, $150K for perfect audio playback electronics vs. $2K for perfect
audio playback electronics. What's to eat your heart out over?

If you think any of the so-called Borgs are envious of people who spend the
money it takes to own Krell gear when we can buy audio equipment that sounds
identical for $148K less, you are an idiot.

Oh wait, that's redundant.

What did you have to pay to keep your victims quiet?

I just got back from SD last night.
Alas, no snow this visit, but, on one
previous visit I did see big piles of snow in downtown San Diego.
It is absolutely true!
Ask Scott, maybe he can explain.
I would, but I despise you too much.

Hi Clyde,

I think that was Arnii's father's favorit line. Now follow up with a punch
or a kick and it'll be deja vu all over again for Arnii.... :-)

Cheers,

The true piquancy lies in D'Agostino, Krell's designer saying in a
"Stereophile" interview last year that he's still striving to equal
analogue? 500.000 $ anyone? I have a spare Dynaco 70 in the loft,
