Wells Audio amps....any experience?
Firstly, "moar is bettah" Repeat this mantra at least five times a day until it is etched into your psyche. You can't have too much of a good thing. It is more acute when the good is GREAT..... Secondly, being manufactured in Berlin by child labor is no different to the same problem in most parts of asia. How to resolve this problem is to listen for the plankton. Thirdly, the hoi polloi decrees that better goods need to be produced as cheaply as possible to feed their insatiable appetite for change. Hi-Fi seems to be out of step here due to the prevalence and proliferation of purveyors of snake oil, angel dust and unicorn tears that infest it. Everyone knows that snake oil, etc is rare and imbues a magical quality which enhances the good whilst eliminating the bad of any part of the chain of sonic reproduction it is applied to. This is a win-win situation. The buyer wins a new appreciation of his audible comprehension, and the seller drools over his inflating bank balance. What's not to like.....

You just need to reset your sarcasm filter, re-tune your senses of humour and the ridiculous, and enjoy the site for the endless hours of enjoyment that can be had sifting through the hype, trolling, rumour, innuendo, false information, logical disconnects, and fallacies which infest the threads in copious quantities. It is advised that, for your sanity's sake that you abstain from entering the Sound Science forum as it is a grossly fallacious abuse of that once renowned and respected term.

Yes, that sound of the surf crashing in and causing all that quantum foam which also muffles all that plankton detail is a real downer. I'm working on a new multi-layered comb filter to act as a brush and sieve so that all the plankton can be free of the Brownian random motion that pervades all of existence. My next project will be to stifle the sound of the jackboots of inexorable progress as they trample over the obsolete and useless inventions and concepts which despoil the technological landscape.

Expensive and/or raved-about headphones that actually suck!
I like both. The one I listen to is the one I like best at that time. Remember. Anyone's opinion is their opinion. Whether it coincides with your opinion or nor doesn't make that opinion intrinsically right or wrong. It could be that all who agree with your opinion are raving nutcases, or even (gasp) aurically correct.
- Happy Birthday Dan!

I'm Prout to say that the philosophies of Foucault and Derrida make me mad. I'll just stay with the Thomists and Hegelians. They make me Searley (Surly) Those Hegelians speak in another dialect. http://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/02/19/bridging-the-analytic-continental-divide/?_r=0
