Teajay,
I echo David_ten's comments regarding your contributions to fellow Audiogon members. I believe that quite a few people appreciate you discovering exceptionally good audio components and bringing attention and exposure to them. Keep it up.
It's bewildering to me why some people take such offense to the idea of affordable, high value components that are capable of providing high quality sound. This really seems to bother some people for some odd reason. While I subscribe to the idea (in a general sense) that you get what you pay for. I've learned that in High End audio there are clearly exceptions to this axiom.
There is not a strict linear relationship between price and performance in the realm of audio products. When someone such as teajay who has vast experience with upper tier products and then touts a lower cost product as competitive, this should be greeted with joy and appreciation.
What is particularly peculiar is the immediate derision and negativity from people who haven't heard the product at all but dismiss it due to its affordability. An unreasonable and unjustified reaction in my opinion.
