Sad when moderators sell out. Still, I hope Ashley gives you a decent price for the DM5s. He should, after all, selling your soul shouldn't come cheap. Certainly more than a free meal down the local.

Mate, I know fa about this, but even I know you have to add in development, design, marketing and production costs into the price. Your markup is a heap of fiction.

Surely metal is a sub category of rock?

Maybe it would be best to define the categories first. in fact, maybe categories and sub categories. For example, main category rock, sub categories swamp, folk, pro, creative, metal etc. Then there's fusion, rock and roll, etc. You might want to have rock ballads, too. it's a can of worms...

Define metal. Are Nirvana metal? led Zep? Green Day? Rhcp?

Steve, mate, you're on a hiding to nothing here. Those who are still interested in this are all on your home active apeaker forum, so why not stick to that for educational topics? HiFi is about having fun. Also, does owning a certain brand of speaker mean you automatically become an anorak?

Ever thought of listening to the music instead of reading about it? Lots more fun!

Lpv, the op doesn't have a £4000 amp, that's someone totally diffrent on another thread. You've also got your calculations screwed up. The amp was made in China, so it's a £4000 amp with £800 speakers. You've a weird way of working things out. Two amps selling at say £1000 each, one made in...

Yes, but that's how it is and how we enjoy it. Imagine how sterile and unexciting it would sound without that distortion. The chillies aren't about sonic perfection.

Nah, the rest of us live in the real world. Life's to short, mate, and that's the honest truth.
