No matter what MY opinion is, on a particular subject i always on this site, try to be non-judgemental, and tolerant, in regard to my comments and opinions and exchange of ideas. Far be it for me to claim to be so wise to call anyone a fool just because they have the means, and self indulgent passion, to spend whatever they see fit or hear what they hear. I know whats foolish for "ME", i'll leave it to odin to decide whats foolish for others to spend on their gear. +1 ;D

That's just my opinion, worth about what you paid for it. No disrespect if you have a $250K stereo at home.

Hi guys, I don't really know anything about high end audio equipment but I thought I would say something. Firstly I think everyone is entitled to their opinions. Secondly I see no reason at all to trash anyone whether they are on this board or not. If one is going to judge someone because they might do something one might not, then perhaps there is something deeper that is the real issue. Seeing the world as having better or worse people, or right and wrong people, or smart and foolish people is draining and promotes negative energy. Again, I am not trying to change anyones minds here, but at least lets try(like Jason Gleaton) to have some levity and keep this fun and non-judgmental. I found everyones opinions about the products in question valid and informative, but the judging of certain people I find leaves a bitter taste to this thread. This board has always felt very caring like a family. I hope it continues too. Peace and blessings. Arun

Well said Arun, !!! Very insightful comments. This thread has some echos of the fender or marshall site, where there's a lot of labeling and such goin on. One thing that brought me here (to the Z forum) was the level of maturity, and deference to the fact that there are many varied OPINIONS. I hope it stays that way! Thanx to all for a great site

Arun Aruntang, I need you to explain this concept to my wife, as she certainly has judged me a fool for spending so much money on guitars & amps !

I never took any of the previous posts to be overly harsh. I thought those parts were tongue-in-cheek.

Hey guys, I don't mean that the previous posts were harsh, just that things were starting to get a little personal. Just wanted to make sure that this is about the gear not about what people should or should not do. That being said I am not a big fan of materialism, but I can't judge people for what they do. It just seems sad to me that someone would own a fleet of Bentleys or other expensive cars while there are soo many who need help in this world and are in situations where they can't help themselves. After all you can't take this stuff with you right? I guess we all need a little love and tenderness to quote Otis Redding.
