New upper trim level Corvette or seven year old used amps?


Recently I have experienced quite a few people I know either passing on or being diagnosed with some type of cancer. And as I have never strived to be the richest guy in the graveyard, I was thinking of buying one of the new Corvettes. I also started to look at my older tube amps, good, but I had had them for about nine years, and the whole tube thing....then I started to think about some SS amps( I know, I’m going to hell). TAD M600, Dagostino M400, and then ventured into Dartzeel territory. Long story shorter: I came upon a pair of used Dartzeel 458’s, totally crazy price, totally crazy good. I have had them about a month and have enjoyed over 100 hours of listening nirvana. Had I bought the vette and drove it 100 hours, I’d have lost my drivers license, and spent thousands on tires, fuel, fines, etc.  
myth buster: it’s all worth it! Expensive power and speaker cables, interconnects, speakers, and Dartzeel 458’s.
Anyone that tells you otherwise is using cost not quality as a determining factor.
Enjoy the music and Life

When I saw the title of this thread I was wondering why you would want to replace the audio system on the upper trim level corvette with a seven year old used amp... lol

"This is why functional designs are so beautiful, so calming."

This is beyond racing. This is beyond cars. This is Porsche.

Toss the Amps, Toss the Vette, and get a 911, When U pass they will all be fighting over it !!!
I learned a valuable lesson having survived two separate rounds of cancer, perspective. When you have a life threatening illness you tend to have a frame of reference to compare with. Much like great speakers, it's life's measuring stick.
Enjoy life in good health with loved ones and do the things that brings you joy, with no regrets.
Millercarbon: wow touched a nerve, eh. You did not address my questions though. After just two years the GT40 engine was determined illegal by the FIA, so Ford pulled out. Where is the FIA based? Europe, where P and F cars are made. Why didn’t the FIA disqualify the 917 or 935 engines after a decade of dominance? Look at the early 80’s pics of Daytona 24 hrs. It’s like the 24 hrs of Porsche, with a mustang and two beemers. Also you didn’t address: why didn’t Porsche go head to head with the Audi at Lemans? Because they don’t Ike to lose, that’s why.
Fact: Porsche has made some of the best cars in the world. So has BMW and Bentley and Mercedes, and FORD!
Fact: the FIA is very political, and biased.

Sophmoric? That’s my line. And I want what you are smoking

happy holidays to all and to all a happy, healthy new year!
