Re: Save BIG $$$ on Beauhorn Virtuoso Ref... sort of.

Posted by meta on November 10, 2000 at 07:26:17:
I think that your observations hold not just for Beauhorns, but also for speakers in general, for tube amps and preamps, for interconnects and speaker cables, for audio racks...
Kits and DIY guides exist for all of the above -- if you have the time and the expertise, and enjoy building things from scratch, why buy commercial versions of any of these components?
Of course, not all of us DO have the time or the expertise -- I would rather spend what little audio time I have listening to music than swearing at plywood! And while many of the products in my system may be produced in (small) quantity (e.g., Beauhorn speakers, Air Tight amplifier), I consider them to be works of audio art, not just musically but also visually. Just looking at such pieces gives me a great deal of pleasure (as I'm sure it gives you, judging from your "Lust" pages), and I know that I could NEVER build anything that would look as good.
