    Audio Absurdity Award Goes To....

    I hope to make it to Axpona this year. Maybe I'll get to hear what absurd sounds like. Hoping to hear all kinds of absurd, ridiculous & unnecessary. It'll be awesome.

    APT Holman preamp notes

    From time to time I wonder about trying something else but I don't feel I'm missing much if anything. If I improved the rest of my equipment, I'd probably have to look more seriously at moving upmarket.

    Suggestions for an especially detailed power amp under $1000, new or used?
