Good points? Many, (I especially Nos. 3,4,and 9).But like all purely subjective reviewers his comments lack backbone. This comes into focus on Nos.5 & 6.
Re. No.5: Darko ~ "We should not underestimate the thirst for giant killers in the hi-fi community. They do exist, but they are excruciatingly rare.".
No, they are not. We need look no further than Purifi and Hypex amplifiers for example ... that is, unless you like distortion.
Re. No.6: Darko ~ "Translation: 'Despite having zero experience with this product, I can't afford it, so anyone buying it is effectively throwing their money away' ".
OK, no, people who spend vast amounts on hi-fi equipment aren't idiots, (not at least unless they don't start with vast amounts of money to spend). The folks with vast amounts of money are perfectly entitled to spend it as they choose and may do so on hi-fi equipment for any of the reasons people buy luxury goods.
NOT the 51st state, eh!?!
