Then, that's ok. No, thanks.
Hmm, well, HiFi is a falling/failing market. Today’s high end is yesterday’s mediocre. They need to make it expensive to cover their losses of falling sales. Young people today do not sign up for quality sound. Many are happy with MP3 over their phones. Even my 40 year old son fits this description. I now have his separates to sell off. It’s a dying industry and the only way forward is to make stuff more expensive.
Think expensive Italian sports cars. The dealers only need to sell one a month to stay liquid. Most contributors here I would guess are well over 50 YOA. At least we will see out our years listening to proper sound. I don’t have that confidence for our younger generations. Such a shame but true.
