I keep buying expensive gear only to sell it as my home brew stuff sounds way better. I need not to buy anymore expensive gear but instead concentrate on DIY.

The guys on DIY Audio have owned all the great gear but cast it aside once they discovered they could build far better for far less. There is no magic in ultra high end gear to justify the price. But without it's mystical allure the author of the article wouldn't have an audience to write for.

Back in the early part of this century I sold a Sansui tuner to a guy in Florida. We became internet friends and he sent me pictures of his DIY speakers. I thought he was nuts as he kept saying how his speakers sounded better than commercial speakers selling for thousands. Now I know he was probably telling the truth.

Few if any on this board realize the level that's attainable with DIY speakers. DIY Atlanta would no doubt make some believers.
