I don't know if so many of us doubt that. What gets to us is the "it's newer, so it has to be better" mentality. That just sounds immature and very ignorant. I'm sure guys like soundhound and maybe a few others have (or know of) some items which are a decade old or more that would still sound as good as a lot of stuff today.

I don't remember where I posted it, but I purchased a new CD player for my car that's about 4-5 years old (brand new, but the design is that old) which can play more clearly than most anything (not everything) you'll find today.

My last post was really from a collection of posts all over the board. No one thing or person really set it off.
