the quest for the best--within limits


many threads appear on these forums of the following type:

what is the best (fill in component type) that costs less than (fill in the price point) ?

i am curious as to why there are so many threads of this type, when, i suspect, the originator of the thread probably realizes that there is no definitive answer to such a question.

Don't care. Rarely bother reading any thread with that word in the title. Actually, I highly encourage using "best" so I don't waste my time.

Yet, you wasted your time anyway!!!!
The answer to your question, MrTennis, should be obvious.

What fascinates me is the flip-side to that question when the erudite types provide the non-sensical response,

"There is no best component or right answer. Whatever is right to your ears is what's best."

That's always a classic.
