[QUOTE="Crafty, post: 1186247, member: 1568"] The kick I got out of this video was the big F.U given to this new emergence where manufacturers go out of their way to fight against the right to repair. All modern electronics participate. Louis Rossman said it best. [MEDIA=youtube]qCFP9P7lIvI[/MEDIA] I agree on points 1-3. Notes on point 4-6 Hey says he builds 10 units a year at 500k zar a pop. That is 5 bar a year from only this pre-amp line-up. If he spends just a tiny bit more on manufacturing (and he can afford it) it can vastly improve the perceived value. Think of a pair of tannoy westminsters but the finish looks like the insides of this amp. They will still sound incredible, but there is an impedance mismatch between what you pay, and what you see. The insides of my Geco Vanguard amplifier looks a lot better than this, and was also hand made with component matching by hand, and cost 10% of this. Heinrich and Rudi took their time with it. Cables are neatly twisted, and bound in looms. The printed circuit boards looks quality made. [/QUOTE]
