Didn't this company just come out with a $350,000 capacitor-less amp... saw the ad in playboy... the one with Charlie Sheen's wife on the cover...

:shock:
Charlie Sheen's wife is capacitor-less and cost $350,000 !!!

oh
I mis-read that.

It seems to me that if you are advertising missing parts that the price should go down.

I've seen those amps in a store, the black ones, anyway. They certainly look beautiful, but those gray ones look like they're built into milk crates.

looks like a tube tester on steroids or a DIYer's wet dream. I wonder what makes them so expensive and who would pay for them?

a crate of beer comes to mind, or bottles of water.

Ugly but design

the same people that pay thousands for 12 AWG speaker cable

the same people that believe that placing your cable directly on carpet sucks the high end out, and they buy these stupid cermaic "lifts" to hold cables 4" above the carpet

audio foolery has been around for a long time.
