Pants on fire

I sent him the following message:

"FYI -

I wonder what he'll do with the info?

Thats like getting smacked by God. :biggrin2:

He ignored me, so good chance he'll cover his ears while yelling "Can't hear you!"

Sadly, he will probably defer to Romy.

Have you looked at his website?

Does ANYONE actually BUY anything from him????? His prices for pure audio toiletries are OUTRAGEOUS!

Here's an idea.... grille cloth speedos, for the audio to slide past aerodynamically.

Probably try to sue us because we snickered at him. :D

It may be that he is "in" among the extravagantly pampered class. If he's built a client base among those with truly limitless buying power, then dealing with the stuff he's selling, and being fairly clueless about VOT's would make perfect sense.

I know that if my buying power were limitless, i'd be making an offer on those Westlakes. I have a pair of small Westlake monitors, they are the real deal.

Here's an interesting thread and a rare peek inside the Westlake loudspeaker shop:

I am pleased to announce [tour of Westlake]

They've got this turntable for $650,000! It has a built in microscope. Just out of curiosity, why would a turntable have a built in microscope? Will it play my grandpa's old 78's? Gives a whole new meaning to that Beck song "I got two turntables and a microphone".

AV DESIGN HAUS
Dereneville VPM
Ultimate turntable, electronic microscope built in, tightest tolerances ever, amazing, HigherFi is the world distributor for AV Design Haus

Sadly with Altecs priced the way they are now,they are coming out of the woodwork.
