RE: Legacy Products That Out Perform Their Modern Counterparts

Inmate51,

I don't disagree with your conclusions, but consider this:

A whole lot of the vintage recordings you [probably] enjoy were mastered using vintage equipment, including Altec and JBL. Example? How about most of the Beatles Recordings using Altec speakers. Oh, and tubes, (assuming you dislike them also.)

My conclusion is, take your mother's advice, if you can't have something positive to say, don't say anything. Someone just might have something bad to say about your choice of audio equipment also :P

PS See Tinear's post about "vitriol" below, sums it up I think.
