Tony, are you one of the lucky few who have heard a 950 (or have they shipped already, haven't kept up with every 950 thread)? Hopefully so, for to say the 950 is 99% of perfection is a huge statement, and silly to say without having heard the product in question.
Secondly for me, I've got to disagree with your 99% rule. Yes, there is a definant point of diminishing returns, but in my case it does not start at 99% of a perfect score or sound or whatever. For you it is 99%, for me it would probably be about 75%, and for someone else that diminsihing return could be 88.88%
My big point is that someone shouldn't ask others to justify this or that, especially when it comes to money and preference issues. Everyone is going to have differing points of diminishing return, especially on something that is as heard to judge as audio.
The only way to truly judge a product is to give it a listen. Then again based upon your money and preference issues, you alone could determine your own set price vs. performance value for a piece of audio equipment, and finally you could then justify or damn the piece based upon this value of yours.
Hey John,
How much you renting that space for? Looks to be a sweet deal!
