I would never buy an equipment without a physical volume knob. Nothing beats a physical vol knob.Contrary to what all reviewers think, i personally dislike chunky, fancy, heavy remote. Becos remotes get thrown around, dropped, sit on and prone to ...

You are comparing a $16K MSRP integrated to a $62K (58+4) MSRP combo of mono blocks plus preamp. Compare statement products to make it a fair fight.Nothing wrong with comparing a cheaper eqpt to a more expensive one. I hv done so before and the mu...

Am very sure there are many expensive equipment that sound very ordinary. One should not let the price tag influence our judgement. That its expensive, it cannot sound bad.

To me the Capri S2 has a fat sound.Curious to hear your findings. Would be surprised if u find it differently

Adv fees aside, all Reviews are bullshit becos it’s cast in stone a basic rule that all pricier models must sound better than cheaper models. I failed to understand this logic as far as sound quality is concerned. For products such as cars its log...

Yeah good.Testing out affordable amps $2k - $10k is a lot more interesting than nitpicking on those super hi end amps $20k - 50k.

Not surprising. Simaudio products are overrated, regardless of price.Also, theres no logical reason why a more expensive product should always sound better than a cheaper product. Afterall, resistors are resistors, caps are caps, diodes are diodes...

Cars are entirely different technologically and the luxury trims, brands etc. put into it.Electronic Amps and preamps are simply a bunch of electronic parts put together by a particular topology. Its parts count wud not exceed 1kusd regardless of ...

And i found this to be true with an old usd2k aragon 28k preamp sounding a hell lot better than a modern usd9k simaudio 740p preamp.In terms of transparency, dynamics, soundstage, separation, clarity, etc.My point is, dont let price affect u psych...

People think that a 50k equipment shud sound better than a 40k eqpt, and 40k better than 30k so on and so forth. What logic is this? What has sound got to do with selling price ?When an equipment sells well above its actual parts costs, its the de...
