Hey Garfish: I think JA can make that statement because reviewers get equipment so cheap/free. I wish reviewers would keep an online record of things they get for free or the at steep discounts. I think that would add to their existing credibility. I do note that Mike Fremer is honest enough to refer to a reviewers 'accomodation' price once in a while. I like the chickenwire purchase - made me laugh out loud. My old killer kitty commandeered one of my old vandersteen 2C's as a lookout post too. I just put a nice towel on top of the speaker for her and a climbable bookcase next to it. Worked out fine for everyone.
I find that I have quite a bit more invested in equipment than in software. I just added it up, and I am at a ten to one ratio of equipment cost to media. I buy 75% of my cd's used, and 100% of my albums used. The software is nearly free compared to the cost of equipment.
