and a good bit of that came from the magazines. Detail has been the holy grail and stressed over tone and flow, not to mention over aestetics and ergonomics. In the end it killed the industry.
Everyone bought a new TV when they became so thin that they could hang on a wall. But amps are the size of compact refrigerators and have so much detail at the expense of tone that one has to own three perfectly recorded Diana Krall records and call it a day.
Needless to say, I have no sympathy for the manufacturers, retailers or reviewers. Or the audiophiles for that matter, however many of them are left.
