The Pass and Rossi would be my choice if $$ were not an issue. Those pieces are beautiful to look at.

I know this is total rubbish, however, the Ayon’s (which are nice units) reputation dwindles (with me) due to all the ads for USA Tube Audio here on AG, etc. PL is not far behind. Kind of like Adcom back in the day. Everywhere you look.....an ad. Again, that does not make the products inferior....and I know advertising is a must.....It’s almost like a ’Ronco effect" or "as seen on TV effect" (people my age will know what Ronco was).....everywhere you look.

Again, it’s petty on my part....however, I’m just being honest. It must work or the ads would not be popping up everywhere

Aberyclark I remember Ronco which was right up there with Popiel. Never fell for the pocket fisherman though.

Cincyhound....I thought Popiel founded Ronco...I could be wrong. The pocket fisherman was a hit with some. My buddy, who was into fishing,  tells a story when him and another buddy were teenagers. They drove to a local lake and my buddy had a big Zebco fishing rod/reel. Fancy set up. My other buddy just has his grandpa's pocket fisherman. Guess which one had fish biting all day.

Aberyclark I think you are correct. Ron Popeil was involved with both. Slicing, dicing and thousands of julienne fries..,,,,,,
