New upper trim level Corvette or seven year old used amps?


Recently I have experienced quite a few people I know either passing on or being diagnosed with some type of cancer. And as I have never strived to be the richest guy in the graveyard, I was thinking of buying one of the new Corvettes. I also started to look at my older tube amps, good, but I had had them for about nine years, and the whole tube thing....then I started to think about some SS amps( I know, I’m going to hell). TAD M600, Dagostino M400, and then ventured into Dartzeel territory. Long story shorter: I came upon a pair of used Dartzeel 458’s, totally crazy price, totally crazy good. I have had them about a month and have enjoyed over 100 hours of listening nirvana. Had I bought the vette and drove it 100 hours, I’d have lost my drivers license, and spent thousands on tires, fuel, fines, etc.  
myth buster: it’s all worth it! Expensive power and speaker cables, interconnects, speakers, and Dartzeel 458’s.
Anyone that tells you otherwise is using cost not quality as a determining factor.
Enjoy the music and Life

I tried the Cayman and found it to be the best handling car I had ever driven. The downside was virtually no boot which precluded carrying my golf clubs. So if you need to carry people or golf clubs try the Camaro Hellcat.
After driving around like a tool i would still want to come home to a stereo of a certain caliber. 
Hi, this is far from an audio thread input on my part but I could not resist the subject of CBD and weed.

I don't agree or disagree with the two individuals fighting over cancer and cbd and weed.

But others reading may get confused. Nowaday you don't need to smoke weed to get high. You get high from the substance in cannabis called thc. You can get it in non smokeable  formats.

CBD does not make you high and you don't smoke it. It is being heavily studied because it seems it may have beneficial effects in many medicinal aspects, including helping fight cancer.

We all know how to Google. Just choose quality places to get informed.

I'm of to listen to some music. FYI, I never took any drugs or even smoked a cigarette. Not advocating drugs. Am advocating knowledge.

Happy Holidays to all
Not over cbd and weed ... just weed. CBD no issue, smoking weed is smoking.
A question to the Porschephiles:
Why didn’t they go head to head with the Ford GT40 way back or more recently, the Audi R10 diesel? Instead they go to LMP2? Really? They always wimp out against dominating competition. They make great cars no doubt, but they do not like competitors, unless it’s them.


Baffling, sophomoric questions. Not surprised. Hardly anyone knows motorsport, let alone Porsche. Let me fill you in on just a tiny little bit:

From the beginning and for most of history Porsche was a very small company that could ill afford to spend much on advertising or racing. Porsche never did race for fame or glory nearly so much as to prove designs and reliability directly applicable to production. That is why the first epic Porsche wins were races like the Targa Florio (where Porsche trounced Ferrari and all other much more powerful cars, and for which the Porsche Targa is named) and the Carrera Panamericana (same deal, and from which the Porsche Carrera and Panamera take their names).

Then and to this day Porsche has focused on endurance racing. Porsche does not race against Ford, or Ferrari, or Audi. The competition for Porsche is perfection. 

The 24 hours of LeMans is the pinnacle of motorsport. Porsche has more outright LeMans wins than anyone. Its not even close. Porsche so dominates LeMans they maintained their historic record despite not even being there for many years. Then despite their long absence very nearly won on their first year back, proceeded to win the next 3, and in 2015 established a motorsport record never to be equalled by anyone, ever:

17th overall victory at LeMans

ALL GT titles in the US Sports Car Championship

FIA WEC GTE Pro Manufacturers', Drivers', and Team Championships

FIA WEC Drivers Champion

FIA WEC World Champion

So remind me again, what was that question about Porsche being afraid of competition?
