Fact is, people with heavy, expensive, hot OTL amps like having heavy, expensive, hot OTL amps more than they like music.A year or so ago I got fed up with all this "high end" bullshit, sold my M60s and my turntable with its stupid $1000 cartridge and now stream all my music from my computer hard drive into a $300 digital amp. I can't say that the sound is better, but I can say it's not noticeably worse.
It's a shame what happened to Mr. Karsten, though. I had several occasions to call him with questions and he was always very helpful.
It's a double shame that a company with such beautiful products -- and some of the AS amps are works of art -- is now run by repulsive creeps who pose third-rate tool company calendar girls next to their butt-ugly speakers.
