Hello benjosef1,
Hah! Well, that explains why I couldn't find any info. Duh.
" I agree with Elizabeth and others who said you have to take recommendations with a grain of salt- a lot of this boils down to personal taste- and one has to judge for himself/herself."
I completely agree, too. It's just such a broad brush statement that I don't know who she's directing it at. Everybody, a few people, me? I don't believe she was referring to me, but who knows? I actually welcome constructive criticism but prefer it to be more directly delivered.
Anyhow, It is good advice that I'm glad you're aware of. I try to be as honest and helpful as I'm able to be. Of course, I realize I may occasionally approach 'fan boy' status when discussing gear that I've personally had especially positive experiences owning or using such as class D amps and 4-sub distributed bass array systems. But I believe this is really just the epitome of honest and helpful advice.
My intent is typically to spread the word on equipment that I've personally used or owned, I've experienced very positive results with and I think is relevant and helpful. If my enthusiasm is misconstrued by others as a strong desire to sell someone something, I'm not very concerned provided all my comments are completely truthful and I have no financial incentive.
I also like to advise others to try and buy products that have generous return policies and free in-home trial periods. This significantly reduces the risks involved. I believe PS offers a 30-day full refund policy and offers price discounts for equipment trade-ins.
Lastly, I strongly suggest you don't even consider that PS Audio Gammonit-2000 amp.
Later,
Tim
