One Amp To ‘Rule’ Them All....

@noble100 nope I’m not looking to buy an amp. I am looking for Audiogon users, audio pros and audio consumers, to come together and define an amp by which all others can be measured. That amp does not need to be perfect, but it needs to be competent, consistent, reasonably affordable and something we all can/could/will have a chance to hear.

Like I said before, so much talk about audio reproduction is like comparing apples to asteroids. You’ve got $100,000 setups and $1,000 setups. I am not rich, but by starting to work to define our language and descriptions better it’ll be a lot easier for the masses to gain entry into audiophile land. Our descriptions will have more meaning and choices will be easier to make. 

@mirolab and @mikesfinest  Thanks guys!

Just a guess here, but has anyone looked into Lamm or Dart Zeel? I mean, let’s get real, guys and stop futzin around.

Noble100 has given the best advice. Your first answer had me on the floor laughing. Your second answer much more diplomatic and polite.
Thank you Noble100.

It just seems like people really don’t care about taking care of each other anymore...  Much easier to mock and dismiss. Fend for yourself, good luck, audition, try, buy, buy buy.... Very very comfortable spending money for the next best thing. 

Some of us are not wealthy. Some of us are audiophiles out here on our own. It is not an extravagance. It is something we simply must do. And I think it can be done way more systematically from top to bottom.

....because there are so many types of bread and ways to slice it we need at least as many knives? I think we can do better.  

And if we want this industry to grow and to support our favorite designers we constantly need to bring new people in and help to educate them.
