Does Anyone Buy Schiit for the Sake of Schiit?
After hearing and reading a few reviews I bought a Loki it was a fun buy reasonably priced and it is fun changing the sound of my system. I initially was going to return the product and Schiits staff could not have been more helpful in that regard... 
Warning for Revel lovers
  I wonder if it is the business model used by Japanese audio companies. I have Technics SUG 700 integrated amp and it is a fine piece of gear but Technics support is nowhere to be found. It seems to me after many nonworking phone and www address...

some rookie questions
Fuzztone 80 dB no sweat, 90 dB still below 0 with occasional spikes into -5 region on some notes but I'm only 8 ft away so no need to go that loud even with led zepplin lol. The sug700 may not be a perfect match but man that's is a good integrated...

Two of the most powerful words ever
“"If "ifs" and "buts" were candy and nuts, wouldn't it be a Merry Christmas?" seems to be attributed to Don Meredith (the American football player/ commentator). To rephrase it: if all these reasons why we can't do something were party foods inste... 
More expensive = better?
What I'd love to see is a double blind lineup of various priced equipment in the same category ( preamps, or integrated amps, or speakers, whatever) least expensive to most expensive in a manageable price range played over the exact system and the...
