    It is common practice since the dawn of reviews, but it just made a light bulb flash up for a second in my brain... Why do reviewers more often than not compare a (for example) $1,000 piece of gear with a $10,000 piece of gear and then going on to say that it can compete with the more expensive...

    Budget Giant Killers!

    A little while back I bought a pair of little cheap speakers to use in my test setup. I use that to test the gear that comes in. Just to see if it works. I bought them for $90 on Amazon, used, but in great shape. Can't beat that with a stick, but think about this: New these sell for $120...

There is a perfect balance between the high, mid and...
