There are "giant killers" out there in every price category.....My point was in general, - people spend too much time paying attention to their speakers and not enough with their amplification. And, - IMO, - there are more "giant killer" speakers out there than amps.
For sure it takes a great deal of engineering talent to build great speakers and great amplifiers. But, the costs and R&D and beautiful, clean, dynamic sounding amplifiers that MATCH well with your favorite speakers are more rare. Good, clean, high current, well balanced amplification commands a pretty penny, and there are fewer shortcuts.
Again, maybe there are one or two giant killer $1,500 amps, - like perhaps, - the NuForce that folks are raving about, - but they are very, very, rare breed.
