General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

Regarding Duntech, the answer is, "Fashion."

Hi-

Twenty plus years ago, "aspirational" magazines in the US such as Playboy and Esquire would run lifestyle articles that would show huge, room-dominating stereos. No longer, and not for some time.

Except for professional engineers (e.g. Sony Music Mastering imported Duntechs direct up to a couple of years ago), most people just do not want refrigerator-sized objects in their living rooms any more.

It's a shame that Duntech has not US representation any more, but, if you see what 2001s go begging for on audiogon ($3500-$6500/pr.) you would understand hat importing new 2001s for sale at full pop retail is not a sustainable business model.

Cheers,

JM
