Ever Bought an Audio Product that was Stupid Good for the Money?

1 Chromecast Audio, for convenience at a bargain price.
2 DSpeaker Antimode 8033 room eq unit for best sonic improvement for a modest price. Room acoustics is where the biggest sound quality improvements can be had and this one does a great job taming in-room response of subwoofers.

The David Berning designed Linear Tube Audio Micro ZOTL2. Nothing sounds like it for the price and it’s an audio Swiss Army knife. An incredible preamp, head phone amp and a 1 watt integrated amp, used with high efficiency speakers sounds like nothing I’ve heard.

Apogee Duetta Signature speaker for $0. One of the speakers was damaged while air transported to US from Europe and the reputable dealer returned my money.
Cost about 5k to repair the pair so it is now just for look only and I do not know what to do with them yet.

Have you considered using them as tables?

it is a good idea :)  The new Apogee table will match well with my Ethan Allen cabinet.

Just think about using the good condition one for the center chanel  (will need to display both speakers to avoid the sore look of one odd trapezoid speaker). Am just curious what difference it would make to offset the time searching for good amp and surround preamp.
