Fella, like your leader Middius, you have a wonderful
command of the obvious.

You paraphrase me well, grasshopper.

First and foremost sound quality. But reliability is a close
second.

IOW Fella, you are a no-show when it comes to personal
experience with that which you are critical of. That follows
from the fact that you have shown yourself to be highly
unfamiliar with a certain high end integrated amp whose name
you just dropped.

Is.

Since you exposed your ignorance about the BAT integrated
amp, this claim is obviously bogus.

Why quote prices of used equipment when they can vary all
over the map?

Sometimes its interesting to do a little fact-checking
Fella. See how nicely it exposed your ignorance and
posturing.
