| Coincident Frankenstein mk.2 amps Joe,What were the main differences you noticed or had to accommodate /adjust to between the First Watt(25watt SS) and the Frankenstein amplifiers (8 watt tube) if any ? Very different designs that I find interesting. Charles, | |

| Best Amp for Timbre, Depth and Spatial Resolution? My goodness fellas! Why not just skip Bo's posts if they really bother you to this extent. He's hardly the first or last person to have passionate opinions on this site. Censorship? Really? | |

I'd suggest Coincident speakers as another easy to drive and very balanced and honest sounding speaker.Zu seems to be very polarizing brand, there doesn't appear to be a middle ground.

| Does anyone really need to spend 10k on power Chayro,Exactly! High end audio is such a good example of free market freedom. If it's worth it in your opinion you buy it . If it isn't worth it then you simply don't buy and move on. I wouldn't spend $40,000. for an audio component but have absol... | |
| Does anyone really need to spend 10k on power Onhwy61,The answer is a resounding yes. You can't disregard the fact that value of these luxury items are relative and unquestionably subjective. For example a particular woman of means and a certain level ofhigh fashion but little or no interest ... | |
| Does anyone really need to spend 10k on power Onhwy61,You miss the" point" the entire context of the OP is based on the premise of cost/value of a product and what others are comfortable spending. The analogy of BMW vs Magico speaker doesn't change the original assumption. The worth of either... | |
| Does anyone really need to spend 10k on power This topic is recurrent, someone is offended and critical of how another adult chooses to spend their own disposable income. We all set our individual limits which vary greatly among us. If I find an item too expensive I don't buy it. You could ap... | |
