I wasn't holding the Parabees as a paragon of unequalled excellence. I meant that $1600 gets you "pretty damn good" in the rarefied 8 WPC universe, and that someone trying to sell some funky salvage amps for $80,000 (no pix, weird details, no feedback on the site)has some serious cojones trying to charge ANYTHING for an audition, let alone $250. Yes, yes, I know that the Fantasia-spec system could be considered salvage, along with any Western Elec. etc. These submarine amps could be treasures.... but they could also be boatanchors in the most literal sense of the term.... 2nd best to a small block chevy for keeping something moored.
