Yeah, not much of a hobby if there is no improvement to be gained and no decisions to be made. Hell, I improved my system just be getting advice on better speaker placement and doing some work with the graphs. I picked my AVR based on those damned magazines, and have been very happy. But if the "one-size fits all, its all the same" approach works for you, all the better for you.
For the rest of us, we'll keep tweaking and trying to find values and improved sonics.

My point is that for every person like you and I, audio buffs, there are ten or more people who simply don’t have the same interest in the high quality sound you and I do. Younger people today seem to care more about the social status the hardware carries. Case in point, Apple has sold in excess of 170 million iPods, and while the iPod is definitely Hi-Fi, I personally don’t consider this product of convenience high end as it pertains to sound quality. I always feel there is a loss of dynamics /transients even when playing WAV files. The majority of people who buy an iPod, and I assume other players as well, claim storage as there first concern, then looks/convenience and thirdly, sound quality. (Sound & Vision Magazine)
Now Zimm, take something for those nerves of yours!!
