Don't you remember at the sales meeting this morning they told us to act like we don't know each other? I'm not sure posting to my thread was such a good idea pard... they might catch on that we're in cahoots with Dared - posting from a net cafe in China!

Seriously I read your whole thread the day after I bought the amp and I was really not able to tell the true from the false about this amp because it was so emotion-charged, the whole thing. I was a little stressed out wondering if it would arrive, if it would play when I plugged it in, and if it would sound like doody.

Now seeing it for myself, it's apparent that there is an ultra-vocal and psycho minority who cast the Asylum in a really negative light with their racism and mean-spiritedness. So many people were convinced out of the gate that I'm not a real customer... and I imagine some others remain convinced that I'm a shill or partner of Joe or something. I guess these people are out there in the world - being mean to co-workers, being mean to store clerks, being mean to dogs, spouses and kids probably.

But then there are some people like Thorsten who are genuinely helpful and sincere. Some others too - who maybe can chuckle to themselves when a new guy gets carried away and writes a "review" too fast, and not act like the American Way is under fire and have to take up arms.

It's too bad about some of the meaner people - so anxious to slam this product and its distributor that they lose all rationality in the process.

Well, it's been fun in a way. I think I'll upgrade a few parts with helpful advise from experienced audiophiles - and just have some fun at it.
