Understand you ,we're in same camp , but if someone is happy spending $ at stupid things and he can afford it - let's do it. At least it boosts the economic and create jobs :)
Speakers and amplifiers show audiophiles are confused.
An audiophile buys a pair of speakers for $50K or $100K then asks what amps make them sound best. That’s about as smart as marrying a girl without knowing her personality. What are the specs that will insure your expensive new speakers and amps will work optimality with each other? There’s got to be an app for that, well no there isn’t because there are too many variables and companies don’t present their specs in a standard ways. Why is it that speaker and amplifier manufactures don’t recommend specific amps for their speakers? Beyond power, impedance, and making your own crossovers how do you choose amplifiers to get all the potential out of your speakers?

@donavabdear , this reeks of insecurity. Any car buff knows exactly to the bolt what he is buying. Most of the people who buy expensive sports cars could care less. They are not buying a car, they are buying cloths. Any self respecting sports car buff buys a 911. The same holds true of Luxury Audio. Those buying it have no idea what they are listening to. They are buying jewelry. If they knew what they were listening to they would never spend that kind of money on silliness like chassis that are 2 inches thick. Any HiFi buff worth his or her salt knows exactly what they are doing and has no problem matching amps to speakers. If you do not know what you are doing, love music and know what you are listening to, find someone who does know what they are doing, who is not in the position of selling you ANYTHING. Never buy anything from a human that is trying to sell you on anything. Humans are far too dangerous for that. Know what you want first then get the best price you can. |
@mijostyn Perfect then, what is the objective formula to choose an amplifier that will work in getting the most potential out of a speaker? You call me insecure, nope I have nothing to prove to anyone. Let's hear it. |
Never buy anything from a human that is trying to sell you on anything. Humans are far too dangerous for that. Know what you want first then get the best price you can. DON’T watch TV, DON’T turn on the internet, DON’T read anything with ads, and have someone sort all of you mail for junk before looking at it. This is ridiculous, "If we asked people what they want they would have said faster horses" Henry Ford As for sales people, I don’t own any Apple products but could listen to Steve Jobs pitch them to me and be captivated.
