| What has your audiophile experience taught you about yourself? "How much bias everyone, including myself, is capable of. I used to be easily lead by subjective reviews, my audiophile friends' enthusiasm or my want for a particular piece of equipment to be "better", either because of the hype or it looked m... | |
| What's the most overrated or overpriced piece of equipment you own, have owned or come by? Odyssey Audio. By far the worst company and the worst products I have owned.
