New D'Agostino Monoblocks...$250,000

I think audiophiles often simply want things that sound good to them, as really, there is no standard (what do these amps do in the quarter mile? 0 to 60?). I think D’Agostino’s "wrist watch meets steam punk" gear looks amazing, likely sounds fine, and like every other mega buck product is often met with a resounding "meh" when contemplated by the proletariat, who just might own a pile of some well sorted unpretentious music reproduction gear that puts coherent sound into the air to provide a treat for your earballs and addled brain.

repluso, Dylan became famous for writing "protest" songs. He soon moved beyond that phase of his career but people kept demanding that he write more of them. Dylan called them his "finger pointing songs" and said that he just wrote them because that’s what people were buying at the time. He understood that aiming his hand in a soldier's stance, to paraphrase "My Back Pages" wouldn’t end war or injustice but made him part of the problem of divisions between people.

His protest songs are great songs but the way to change things is to do something positive yourself, not accuse others of being the problem.

People forget how calculated Dylan's early career path was, from his name change to his singing style to his Woody obsession...he had the chops, work ethic, and charisma to make it all work somehow and the timing was impeccable, clearly illustrated by all the non super famous people from the old folkie scene. 

Makes a 20K amp seem reasonable 

I owned (4) Krell MRA amplifiers at 700 lbs
each.
210 transistors per amp.
Great amps but I’m sure by knowing Dan
that he has surpassed them in every way,
except weight-lol, with his D’Agostino Relentless Amps. Tanti saluti!!! Bob C
