750$ Intel NUC vs $6000 Aurender N200: I don't hear the difference

The Big Misconception About Electricity
Well most of them come across as nutcase clowns,  and the quality of analysis they apply generally indicates they are nutcase clowns. Not exclusively, but the vast majority.  
SET the best?
absolutely I need to confirm the GaN Fet AGD uses for the Audion, Vivace, and Tempo (either in the AGDGaNTubeKT88MKii or in the new GaN power module for the Tempo) were optimized specifically for Class-D application hence for Audio. The article ...

You can let it fluster you.   You can ignore it.   Or you can use it to your advantage.
