So much of the hype of what we hear on what the very expensive gear will get you. He pretty much nails it. Your gonna get a Lot of amp at 5K that's more than likely just as good or even better than some if not all of those boutique amps in the 10K and up. Hey but, so your a dude with a ton of money to buy very high-end gear. Guess it's better than the IRS getting the money. His take on those dude's that throw around marketing BS is spot on. Anyone who's been in the Audio games can easily spot the BS. I especially like the way he calls them out. And gives the uneducated consumer a word of caution on what to watch out for when shopping for gear.
