Latest Absolute Sound


I just got it yesterday and they are reviewing amps from 12k to 97k. I sat back and thought who is really buying this stuff. I know the average audiophile Isn't and the one's that actual have the money are always looking for deals via Audiogon. Is this just audio porn for the readers or are people actually buying this stuff.

I really like the sound of Ferrari under acceleration. It's like an orchestra at La Scala. I've never driven one. If I do I'll want one and won't feel too good. But Koenigsegg appears to sound more primal and powerful, like a message from prehistoric times.
I think extreme high end cars are cool, and I drive things that make me think I'm sporty (turbo Mini, older straight 6 BMW 3 series, slightly modded Triumph Bonneville T100), even if my cars aren't McLarens. This clearly is what my hifi gear is about, and I still think a hobbyist who finds fun, high performance but relatively inexpensive things will have MORE fun than "mister insecure moneybags" who has cables costing more than my car. I collect interesting automatic watches (warning…do not get into this…you're welcome) and recently got a new old stock Oris Titanium diver for about a fourth of the cost of my second choice, a Tudor Pelagos (also titanium, into these because I figured I could melt it down for a future hip replacement)…my Oris is more fun…I swear it is...
