look up the term STATE OF THE ART. sure hobbiest can build some damn good gear but its not state of the art stuff. try building a cartrdige as good as a $5000 cartridge for $5000 yourself, ditto for Turntables CD players, etc. Its just not possible to match the very best stuff yourself at same or lower cost, only at more cost.

You're obviously speaking for yourself John, consider that other people may have the skills and resources to design and build top end hi-fi components. Heck where do you think all these little boutique brands sprang from?
