Article-I.D.: zehntel.357 Posted: Wed Jul 28 20:39:16 1982 Received: Fri Jul 30 03:42:00 1982 I see lots of stuff on "high end" audio equipment, with the Foobar Labs Macro-diddley AMP having .0000000000000001 % distortion at 10kwatts/chan and so on. What I want to know is, why should I buy anything better than my ears? Why should I pay for what I can't hear? (Quick, fred, get me the asbestos terminal cover...) --Berry Kercheval, Zehntel Inc.
