but common, a $500 receiver with “new” technology can not compete with a $12,000 Lexicon Pre/Pro.


Can't it, though? You may not be able to easily lift the Lexicon Pre/Pro with one hand, but I'm willing to bet you'd have a hard time distinguishing between the two in a double-blind listening test. You just gave us a perfect example of how seeing a piece of equipment affects your opinion of it.



Actually your comment is a perfect example of someone making assumptions to support their position.

I called it a POS not simply because of its weight. It has CHEAP everywhere. Cheesy plastic speaker connections, a volume knob that wiggles, light gauge case, light gauge face plate, very thin and cheap display panel plastic….and weight. And that’s after a quick one minute look over.

But again, I’ll get to “hear it” this weekend.

If anyone has already passed judgment and unwilling to accept truth, it would be the One-Watt-Is-Enough club.
