^Hesson11 - I have always seen other forums stamp down on political correctness regarding spelling and grammar. Personally, I like people to highlight my gaffes - but I take pride in what I write and that is clearly not important to others. I do have to add, however, what on earth is the comma thing?
regarding this thread, I see little point in such constrictions. Does the OP consider that one cannot achieve synergy outside of that price bracket or that digital synergy does not exist? Synergy can be achieved at any price level and with any gear! I see the attainment of synergy as almost a dark art - part skill, part informed and part sheer luck. I have also seen many, expensively acquired rigs, made up of highly esoteric equipment, all highly respected and often critically acclaimed items, that when combined together, do anything BUT achieve synergy. It is quite clear to me, and I infer nothing regarding any user here, that even experienced audiophiles assume that the random combination of fabulous items will necessarily produce a superb end result.
