Things on that site would still be a rip off if the prices did not have a 0 or two at the end. Has the US gone bonkers. Easy to see why Trump was elected.

What the feck does that mean. Is someone making our national grid pylons smaller, stealing some of our lecky

This thread is good, keep it up, I for one never realised how much shite slurp there is out there, and it is a growing disease by the look of it.

At the low margin/zero slurp end, where I tend to look these days, I see Yamaha in their specs for the very humble AS-201 quote 100WPC into 8 ohms - at TEN PERCENT distortion. Now, why don't they just quote say 60 - 70WPC long-term, which may be nearer the truth.

Specs are all bollocks and lies as they are never qualified correctly. They have just become a marketing tool, sadly this industry / hobby is dominated by marketing bullshit both on the objective and subjective side.

Some matching specs can be useful, but in reality they are not understood either.

It is..regarding amps/speaker..All i want to know is a rough estimation of The Power an amp kicks out & the Efficiency of a pair of speakers. Only because i always buy low power amps & Highish Efficiency Speaker. Turntable wise i buy Low Mas arms/High compliance Cartridges, thats all i wanna know apart from the recommended tracking weight.. Why make Hi-Fi so Over complicated.

Why people insist on Knowing specs that they really dont need to know !

I have been looking for publish measurement specifications for NVA amplification and Cube speakers in particular, any info on these Richard ?
