Well, well, well, I have to say that I'm blown away by the standard of discourse that this thread has generated. This started off for me, as a way of generating further discussion on the Sig 70s by highlighting the article written by Mike. It has evolved from that into dissertations on the very premise of reviews, subjectivity Vs objectivity and personal insights into how an audiophile develops the facility to wander alone into the forest of products and come out the other side (financially) unscathed.
Life is short and the sooner that people stop listening to the siren song that is the pursuit of the absolute sound then the happier they will be. Manufacturers and reviewers have their own vested interests. We as audiophiles have ours. The twain sometimes meet but for the most part, they do not.
Vinnie runs this forum for the edification of his customers (and prospective customers) and to promote his products. But what has been written in this thread, within his circle, elevates not only us but him as well. That such learned and erudite people are willing to contribute their thoughts not only on his products but on audio in general speaks to the esteem in which we hold Vinnie, his company, his circle and each other.
