| Very Bad purchase from upscale audio Acoustic Zen Adagio @joegator81 I must say Mr. Deal is one polarizing dude!

| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic All the macro and microagressions in this thread would endanger collegiate safe spaces! 😬 | |
| Diana Krall @czarivey You have your own proprietary truth? Your truth is factual? Wow. I feel diminished.😢 | |
| A lot of hype about PS Audio, deservedly so ? @jzaz +1 Lucky you getting the BHK 300s! Paul McGowan is one of the nicest guys in audiodom. | |
