I think if President Trump was into audio, he'd promote gilding these amps for a yuge, phenomenal expansion of the soundstage and a very, very great lowering of the awful, hateful noise floor.  Maybe blame our bad deals and China for the high price.

If former President Obama was into audio, perhaps he'd secretly love these, but publicly condemn them as inefficient and attempt to institute a policy designed to push the market into class D--to fully take effect well after he was out of office.  Maybe a federal program for trading in tube gear and Class A amps.

If a business can convince a person to exchange his money for a product who should care but the two parties involved in the transaction?

In a purely economic sense this statement would only be true in an economy with unlimited resources.  It doesn't really apply to a crowded small rocky planet circling a medium mass star.  And then there are the moral questions.  Should a 13 year child be able to sell their bodies to adults for sexual purposes?  It only effects the two parties, right?  If one dictator wanted to sell weaponized nerve gas to another dictator, is it still viewed as a closed, private party transaction?  Why can't cocaine and other narcotics simply be sold on street corners?  If someone wants to buy it and someone wants to sell it, it should be okay with everybody else?

We all have a stake in what each other does.  It's the basis of family, community, nationality and ultimately humanity.  No man's an island.

I disclaim my "stake" in another’s purchase of drool-worthy 300 watt class A, 300 pound, two-chassis monoblocks from a premier manufacturer. Congratulations on your purchase and sale.

I sometimes share the bandstand with a piano player who is a hardcore Libertarian. I actually truly respect that political bent---limited government (including the lack of laws prohibiting personal behavior greatly disapproved of by many Conservatives---drugs, prostitution, etc.---at least publicly ;-), fiscal responsibility, etc. If you want government to do as little as possible, Libertarianism is the way. But I don’t think that’s what most Americans actually want. As one published author recently opined, "We’re all Socialists now". To one degree or another, though Conservatives won’t admit it. By the way, that piano player is also a Scientologist. Weird, ay?!
