Top three most over underrated eqpmt??


Throughout my 17 and some odd years of being into this hobby, I've had numerous equipment with some being so so, some being great, and the rest being bad....Just curious to find out what other people's experiences are with changing from one component to another...Well, for me here are the list for my top 3 most overrated equipment: SimAudio W4070 amplifier, Aragon 47K preamplifier, a tie with Kimber PBJ interconnects and Linn Majik integrated amplifier....my top 3 most underrated equipment: Chiro C-200 amplifier, Roksan Caspian integrated amplifier, Straight Wire Chorus interconnects....comments anyone???

Roger Modjeski designed(s) the Music Reference products, his cousin Paul, the Pumpernickel.
My list for the underrated:

Discovery cables -- reasonably priced, very performance
Sony SSM7a speakers -- yes, Sony makes a great speaker
JBL LSR28 powered speakers -- great design & build quality
Tandberg open reel tape decks -- better than most Revoxs
Sumiko OCOS cable -- strong performer, well built
Vibrapods
I would say the McCormack DNA-2 or 2DX are the most under rated amps in the world. It seems that a huge number of DNA.5 and DNA-1s were sold, but ulike these smaller McCormacks, the DNA-2s were never reviewed by a major mag. and they were being produced about the time the company was "going under", so it simply didn't get much publicity. But I've owned the 2DX for 2 years now and it's a fantastic amp-- they can drive anything and still have great finesse. Also, because they aren't well known they sell for pretty reasonable prices on the used market. I greatly preferred the 2DX to the Levinson 331, and SF Power 2. Cheers. Craig.
What little hifi experience I have tells me that equipment synergy determines an enjoyable or disgusting listening experience. With that in mind I only have one contribution, that being in the underrated category. I have used a McCormack ALD-1 Deluxe preamp with external power supply and phono stage for years now and found it an easy blend with just about every piece of equipment I've hooked up to it.
It's various configuration options allow it's owner to tinker (I don't mean modify) with inputs and outputs till even the least acceptable (in the hifi community) piece of source equipment, cable etc. becomes more than just passable.
