While the world is in the middle of a major economic event, the last two pieces of gear posted by Stereophile to their online site average $30K a piece.

If this doesn't make you feel like you belong to their target audience I don't know what will.

Mexico. Big freaking mess. Hopefully they’ve managed to seal off the borders.

I see our very own resident 'critic' could not resist chiming in and calling the writers of the review names and making personal attacks... instead of criticizing the work.  after all, no one can refute the pontifications of the person with the absolute best system (and best ears and brain) on this site.

valid comments about the gear... no problem.  Valid comments critiquing the review... no problem.  Calling names and belittling others... ugly

In Virginia 77% of all COVID-19 deaths are people 70 and over. So, you could say for everyone else COVID-19 is pretty much like a bad case of the flu. Agree, disagree?

As Jello Biafra (of Dead kennedy's fame) once sang "Kill Kill Kill Kill Kill The Poor" ... well, looks like CV-19 and dumb-ass politicians are doing that for us.
Also, in a much earlier posting, someone grumbled about "people who wear $10,000 watches don't do so just for the time" (or something like that). I must take exception to such a slanderous and malicious slur ... my watch cost $125000 (a bog-standard Audemars Piguet, nothing special) and it tells the time quite nicely thank you!
