Realistic sound = tubes and analogue

yeah I didn't think you'd want to know how much the parts are in a Magnepan. I did not insult his gear - read it again. I said that someone who builds it himself has a bias - I am not hunting down the quotes and articles to satisfy you. If you can't see the basic psychological logic of it then I can't help you.

No I really DO want to know what it all costs, since it's been about 10 years since I bought my first repair kit from Magnepan. ($46.50)

While you at it please give me the markup costs that your dealer told you. I hope you know that divulging proprietary info like that can cost your dealer more than his Magnepan dealership. I'm sure a lot of other manufacturers will want to know that he's giving out their confidential info to punters like yourself.

Actually they can't because we're talking about the cost of the materials not overall costs. Cost of materials is far eaiser to find. Simply rip it apart. The "general" information provided was not specific to any model. Since other dealers have said the same thing - it is not like this is confidential knowledge. Several manufacturers have admitted it on AudioAsylum as well. The owner of Merlin speakers and PQ among some others.

Just saying when you say a product uses cheap parts you should look at the level of parts that are in the speakers in your stable.

And you need to put your magnepan fanboy views aside when moderating. You are sending e-mails to them, you are attacking an audio manufacturer that you have never once auditioned, threatened and implied law-suit against an audio dealer? And calling forum poster's names. And basically because someone doesn't like the speakers you own and only brings them up because you attack a speaker you've never heard.

Just as I thought, never did know the markup did ya? Next time you CLAIM to have info be prepared to get called out again.

Well what i know and what I will tell someone who will attempt to use it against me is another matter.
