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

Those horns certainly wouldn't fit in my space !!

In important ways you & I are opposite ends of the audiophile spectrum. Ultimately our choices are a matter of taste and it is fruitless to argue which is better.

You like vinyl, tubes, AN boxes (or horns maybe). I like digital only with room EQ and an ultra-low distortion amplification chain plus very flat, low distortion speakers. (Granted, I'm currently using Sonic Frontier tube preamp but offers minimal "tubeyness" and high resolution compared to most tube components.)

I admire AN amps and preamps in some respects, albeit they are tube. The top model are over the top but, for prestige products, the mid-range use high-quality components and are no more absurdly expensive than, say, McIntosh.
