Thanks Strateahed. Really.
Don, your point? So what. When did it become a crime to post about something you are a fan of and pass that on to inform.
Look, no interest then move on. No one is saying you have to like it or read it.
As far as the markup on Audio products. Well that all depends.
Apple sold something like 40-45 million ipads and around 85 million iphone in the first half of their fiscal year.
Now tell me an Audiophile company that sold only two of their products in that quantity for a full year.
The amount sold by some Audiophile companies requires a certain markup. True some over charge. But many charge a far price considering the cost to really run a business for the amount the sell.
You know this is a very small market. Most people I know are NOT Audiophiles and would never care about better sound, unfortunately.
I have had both the DIY Hypex NC400 amps in my system and the NC1200. I could have easily built the NC400 with a great case, footers and parts (with right ones it would improve the sound, I know as a few of us tried it out) and I heartily recommend that to anyone who can not afford the NC1200 based amps. But for those that want the better sound that the NC1200 offers(and it is not just a matter of more power) and can afford them...well it will put a smile on your face. Well both will but from a different point of view.
Can we all get back to AUDIO and recommending stuff.
