Regarding the price - despite what some of us would insist - this thing cost an arm and a leg, no, many arms and many legs to develop. Not only that, the manufacturing and assembly are state of the art. Even the components are top notch (no expense has been spared, as in there are NO CHEAP/SHORTCUT COMPONENTS, NOT EVEN A SINGLE TRANSISTOR HAS BEEN BOUGHT AT BARGAIN) and highly regarded within industry. The thing is built to last and the intention is and has always been "buy with the confidence that you will NEVER worry about it ever again".

Well put Steve. Good analysis. However, I think looks and performance can go hand in hand. I have a design for a unit in mind which would look really sharp and perform really well. Just don't have the time and capital to do it right now


BlueTang<3, looking forward to your review and hopefully PAR measurements too.

ahh, I never said thoes two couldn't go togeather, but add cost to the mix... if you get looks and preformance it isn't going to be cheep as it takes conciderably more work and effort to combine thoes two.
