over and over again.In case you still don't get it - you're doing great disservice to Accuphase.

Buzz Off!
You are just another aggressive imbecile, who decided for some reason to lurk here, stinking up the air.

Because you think the Accuphase E-550 is the best integrated in existence doesn't make it so.Am I a moron too ?
"Because you think the Accuphase E-550 is the best integrated in existence doesn't make it so."I highly doubt George has heard every integrated amp ever offered to the public but he certainly has a trained ear. Whether that agrees with your ear, or anyone elses ear for that matter, is certainly up for debate.
He is just excerting his opinion over years of use with varying products. Hell, I currently think that the Pass Labs Aleph 3 is THE best amplifier on the planet, as did many people when it first came out, but that does not mean it is the best amplifier for all people/systems.
This hobby is full of opinions and it is the true audiophile that understands that the very same component will sound very different in a variety of systems and to proclaim one component as the end all, be all of musical interpretation is certainly mentally myopic.
There R situations where any amplifier could be made to sound like shit, but one must have a certain understanding of component compatibility to be able to assemble a musical system within it's design limits. For example: one would not choose a 300B SE amplifier for bass heavy rock or technical music even if the 300B amp was paired with 100db sensitive speakers. The output device will just not deliver the stomach crunching goods that a good SS design will provide, musicality aside.Different strokes for different folks,

Since George Mann hasn't registered, and he hasn't relayed ANY of his experiences, we have no idea who he is: although his posts are very opinionated and inflammatory, - which would lead some to conclude that he is an ass. Calling someone a "Moron" on these boards is simply unacceptable, - and he should not be defended for that.There's no rule here against being a troll, - or in his case a shill.
Where the real problem lies, - besides the fact that he is behaving as would a coward, - is that his tone appears to pass off his opinions as facts. By making such inflammatory and wrong statements similar to: Accuphase builds the most neutral and/or accurate amps; at worst he's lying, at best he's confusing his subjective opinion as a provable fact: when we all know that we cannot agree on the definition of those terms; (and those terms when undefined, are moving targets, what about Halcro)?
You're absolutely right when you say, "to each his own." George Mann would do well to follow that great advice, - he certainly doesn't appear to in any of his posts....

Now would you kindly remove your head from your mothers ass??!!

Reading my reply would certainly indicate that I support George but my intent was to hightlight the fact that just because a component sounds good in ones system, does NOT mean it will sound the same when implemented in another system.I gave George the benefit of the doubt but I certainly didn't know the extent of his history of being abrasive and inflammatory but even still, being of a differing opinion does not make one wrong.
I agree that calling someone a "Moron" is unacceptable solely for the
reason of disagreement and this would certainly point to a mentally myopic viewpoint.Cheers
And so is anyone else who feels the need to virulently attack my posts!
I find most of this rather offensive.
To think, I actually defended one of these guys a few months ago.Actually, the Cntent Rules state...
Hasn't this thread violated them somewhere along the line?
Can we stop this now?
B. No defamatory statements:
Defamatory statements are, for example, statements that contain certain kinds of untrue factual information about a person or a company that is derogatory. It's okay to say that the Belchfire amplifier sounds "flat and uninvolving." It's not okay to say that the amplifier doesn't meet its published specifications, unless you back the statement up with proof. Likewise, it's not okay to accuse a person or company of being dishonest, committing fraud, etc.
As a general rule, avoid repeating vague and unsubstantiated rumors about someone or some company. Stick to your experiences and your opinions, based on what you know not what you have heard on the grapevine.
C. No flames, personal attacks or contentious off-topic comments: The idea is to make this a pleasant environment to discuss audio, not a schoolyard, or name-calling and rock-throwing festival.
As I said, you shouldn't really skip your medication. I recommend you talk to your doctor about dosage increase.Meanwhile, until your condition stabilizes, it's better for you to refrain from posting here - it can make things worse.

"his tone appears to pass off his opinions as facts"His statements lead me to the same conclusion.
