Re: This is to Phil Tower and whoever else cares....

Well, I have yet to see a message or a messenger I would describe as perfect, but that's for another day.

The thing that baffles me about Dr. Toole is that both JBL and Infinity produced pretty good speakers before H-K and Dr. Toole got ahold of them. Now, their primary claim to fame seems to be that they are heavily advertised and heavily marketed by Best Buy salesmen making all kinds of wild claims to unsophisticated consumers, the very thing that objectivists claim drives the high end market.

Yet nothing in high end audio that I'm aware of can even hold a candle to the degree of advertising and marketing hype that drives the sales of JBL and Infinity speakers at Best Buy. So I often have to scratch my head when I see objectivists singing the praises of Dr. Toole. I find myself scratching even harder every time I'm in a Best Buy and spend a few minutes trying to listen to a pair of the most recent JBL or Infinity speaker coming out of Dr. Toole's highly touted lab.
