"My Mark VIII can accelerate to 60 mph in about 6 seconds...
No, it doesn't. Try 7.0 seconds. Motor Trend recorded 7.2."
How would I know? I've just driven one for the past 8 years.
"...handles very well
LOL!! For an AARP sled perhaps."
Can't deliver neck snapping whiplash inducing injuries just from turning the steering wheel. Short of that, it does as well as the much more expensive competition from the other personal luxury car manufacturers. That is all a sane person wants or needs.
"...if you know how to use Yamaha DSP-1.
Well, the good news if you like that sort of thing you can buy one for $50 on ebay! They're discontinued, right?
Dime a dozen. Nobody knows how to use them. It become obvious to me that this technology is well beyond what is usable by audiophiles. They will have to learn to live with what they have. Better will not come along for a long while...if ever.
Phony notion of high end audio equipment, phony notion of what the ideal driving machine is for the real world, phony engineering degree and title. That pretty much sums you up E-Stat. At least for me it does. You should move to California. Five years of living there taught me that it is the capitol of the universe for make believe and wanabees. Enjoy your dressing screens. They are probably the best sound reproduction equipment you will ever have.
