I once owned an Esoteric X-05 and couldn't wait to get rid of it. A beautiful machine and I wanted to love it, but after 6 months it still sounded dry and harmonically incomplete. I sold it locally and I insisted the buyer listen before buying, but he bought it anyway and sold it shortly after.
What's the most overrated or overpriced piece of equipment you own, have owned or come by?
This hobby of ours is extremely rewarding, but can also be very expensive. I don't mind paying the big bucks (if I can afford it) for better sound. But many companies out there take advantage of us poor bastards and sell us snake oil equipment at exorbitant prices. Well...This is your chance to share with other Audiogonners.
