| $510.00 for an Aluminum cover for the ARC Ref. 10? Like Mitcht said" spend 30k on a pre-amp and they ding you 500.00 for a cover" spend 10 times that on a Ferrari and pay 3500.00 for a carbon fiber coffee cup. The bottom line is they are laughing all the way to the bank. | |
| why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable mapman,You brought up that the difference between a Ferrari and a Toyota is easy to understand. That's why when you buy a Ferrari you are not hearing guys on car forums arguing that the Toyota is better. On the opposite side of the spectrum when a... | |

| The New Audio Research Reference 6 Statman,Are you saying you bought a new ref-6 for 10k? That would be 30 percent off retail. I can't imagine ARC offering a 30 percent discount on a new product. If you are talking about buying a new ref-5se for 10k. That still doesn't make sense t... | |

| "All Things Must Pass"-Tower Records Documentary Oregonpapa,I stopped going to Amoeba when I had to go to the bathroom really bad and a security guard told me to go across the street to Jack in the box. Who's runs a huge operation like Amoeba with no bathroom. Terrible management. | |
| "All Things Must Pass"-Tower Records Documentary Oregonpapa,You are correct. Tower had a store on Topanga Canyon bl. Shelleys had a store on the same street but it was half a mile south. In between the 2 stores was a Toys are us and a see's candy. | |
| It Was 40 Years Ago Today... Riwainwright,I agree with you 100 percent! I grew up in Detroit and saw J.geils band many times in the 70's. I have seen a lot of the greats Stones, Zeppelin, the Who, etc, etc. By far Peter Wolf was the greatest front man I have ever seen. It has... | |
| Tone of Muisc, SF - worst hifi experience. Yours? That's high end audio for you. Limited customers, cut throat dealers. I love high end audio but from a business point of view it has to be one of the worst businesses to be in. | |

| The New Audio Research Reference 6 I can't see buying a new one when you can pick up a mint condition Ref-5se for about 7000.00. And I doubt they are selling close out one's for 40 percent off retail. | |
| Shopping for speakers at $1500-$2000 is a chore. I will say Fritz is one of the nicest guys in the business. I wish the retailers in Southern California were half as nice. |
