>>smaller companies stuff is comical. kind of the audio equivilent of that quirky<<

Quirky companies such as Plinius and Supratek for example?
Just curious.

Slinkylinks cables, great value, Perreaux & Plinius amplification, Osborn speakers.

Lotta of this kit around the world, I don't think most of the owners find it very "comical".

Comical is right. My Supratek Grange is so good I can't stop laughing when it totally destroys every other preamplifier heard alongside of it. Honestly it is so hilarious and such a real knee slapper!!

Jaybo, we're all waiting for your wisdom and guidance here. Don't talk trash without backing it up.

well, of the brands mentioned, there are none that sound bad, or look like they are built by the guy who flys the plane in those 'mad max' movies, but assuming 'state-of-the-art' is just that, my 'quirky' comment stands. and yes, the insides of some do qualify as comical. i would howeverjaybo consider the osborn or duntech loudspeaker lines as state-of-the-art.
