So doesn't work for the manufacturer, not a dealer, just an ordinary shill. I knew there was something amiss. Whine all you want Hifial, your cover is blown.

Yes, us trolls don't care for you shills. Peddle your wares elsewhere.
Again for the last time you inane bunch of idiots. I am just a freaking fan and nothing else. Please go and infect another thread or better yet dry up and blow away.
Hifial,

One thing I've noticed is that if you really are a fan of a piece of gear, probably the worst thing you can do is to start posting over enthusiastic responses about that equipment all over the forums. Regardless of your intentions, it often makes the poster look suspicious and can even hurt the overall perception of the product. I know there's been at least one instance of a manufacturer actually asking a "fan" to tone it down because he thought the over enthusiasm was hurting the perception of his products.

Just trying to help.
Hifial,

You can publish reviews of equipment and even music here on Audiogon. Less chance of getting bashed promoting something you like that way if done well.
["Mapman I suppose once an innovative cost effective product or technology catches on in the high end audio world, it is ripe for a big markup if its performance is competitive with much more expensive gear. Class D amps fit this bill perfectly. I doubt that the much larger potential markets other than "high end audio" will go unserved though, so I think there will be many competitive offerings with excellent performance at a range of price points. Some will be more luxury minded and others more value oriented."]

Absolutely, I agree.

The reviewer mentions the manufactures attention to detail as if some unique changes in design have been made other than the exotic use of anodized aluminum casework. To me that remark smacks of what many switching amplifier manufactures do by simply using of the shelf switching modules and power supplies from manufactures such as Hypex and B&O.

For what its worth, long before the Hypex offshoot Mola Mola actually had a completed prototype they eluded that their amplifier prices would be somewhere in the $5K per mono range.

Again, I'm not complaining, just considering the historical value of previous non proprietary designed class D offerings.
