"What good reason can you give to buy the fritz when you can buy better for a fraction of the cost?"
Got 5 good reasons. Experience matters.
Until a novice has -
1. Built them,
2. heard them,
3. compared sound,
4. in a group setting,
5. with experienced listeners...
...It’s all just talk until then.
Kinda like trying to convince oneself that frozen pizza with the same ingredients heated up at home is as good as a hot fresh pizza cooked in a really good pizza oven made at a real pizzeria. No comparison.
Talk is cheap. Best of luck.
