Oh, please, would you just relax? I'm not saying they're not legitimate -- Bob Neill, with whom I sometimes disagree, has written some great reviews. I think some of their reviewing techniques can be a bit silly, though (the score cards) and, like any rag, there's a lot of fluff.
I am not pumping anything. I don't need to. In fact, you are not even in my marketplace. Lavry? Good point. Currently, it is pretty much the most highly regarded DAC amongst mastering studio types. Very little experience? Okay, I guess that 25 years of pretty serious audiophile time doesn't count for much -- but, how would you know? I mean, Raja, listen to yourself -- you're going around and making assumptions, as facts, about people you have never met. The PSU for the Squeeze Box isn't really defective. Defective, Raja, means that it does not work. It works and, for $300, the SB is an incredible package. Of COURSE it can be improved upon. Sean Adams is the first to admit that one of the things he worked hard on was a significantly upgraded power section for the Transporter. According to these ears, and many others, he succeeded. Look, would you please read my posts? I agree with you that there is a legitimate area for mods. I commended you -- I was positive toward you, in a way you seem to be incapable of being toward people whom you have decided not to like -- for your skills. But, the fact remains that mods are a small, teeny-tiny sliver of the market. Tiny. People spend tens of thousands of dollars on audio and don't mod one single item. I've never heard of people going at McIntoshes, ARCs, or what have you with a soldering iron -- or at least not in any numbers that count. The same goes for slim products. The majority of users don't get into this. They are happy with what they have. If you're into it, then more power to you. But, please, quit being so defensive and insulting. It's annoying and you're managing to wreck, once again, a perfectly interesting thread. I hope you find some peace. rajacat;150562 Wrote: > Okay, if it is so funny, what makes you such a great authority? At least > they listen and compare what they criticize.
