[QUOTE="pwatts, post: 1187049, member: 146"] Well... yes and no. They have ONE design where they tweak the materials and peripheral circuitry e.g. the input stage where they still can faff around in safety. The core design is a complex technological marvel that they can't dare touch without the genius who invented it or someone equally skilled in both engineering, physics and math. So, while they're still able to remain competitive with these tweaks on a singular design, good for them, but in the absence of new innovation and a more comprehensive product lineup than a mono and stereo power amp of the same design, I hardly see this as sustainable in the long run. To me it just highlights how brilliant that man really was. [/QUOTE]
