The Porsche Boxster is made in the Czech Republic in the Skoda factoryI very rarely do the lottery
However if I ever won the first thing on my list would not be hifi it would be a Porsche Boxster S...not because it's a Porsche but mainly due to the German engineering.. and the fun, of course

seriously ? is that correct ?
ou might slip, you might slide, you might
Stumble and fall by the road side
But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
Remember you're walking up to heaven
Don't let nobody turn you around
… Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
And don't you let nobody drag your spirit down

“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

Nope, I got the country wrong.
It was Finland.
Production has shifted back to The Fatherland

I'd not go for a Boxter.
My tastes are more rudimentary. For fun an older Caterham 7 with an old low tech engine with carburettors that I can play with (wonder if a 2.0 twin spark Alfa engine from a 75 with a couple of big Webers could be shoehorned in?). For trundling about the countryside with the dog, an ex-military LWB non-turbo Land Rover, in drab matt Army Green would suit. A comfy modern MPV for carting family about too.

There are underlying truths which almost certainly limit the extent to which Hi-Fi can improve as the technology currently stands.
Let's assume that we pay whatever is needed for; perfect drivers, be it single, two, three or four way, absolutely flat, zero distortion and perfect phase, throughout the Xovers as well.
We still have drivers in a box, spaced apart, with different F ranges coming from different points, feeding us a signal which is itself from a mic, which captures a small angle of forward directed sound which is itself already containing some room effects from the performance room.
These latter compromises themselves are an inherent limitation which will be heard and cannot be overcome even with the above perfection.
So in the real world position we are in, the results of design aspirations are limited by this and are asymptotic to it, and we pay more and more to get nearer the driver perfection, if we are lucky, and if not we get lovely finishes and industrial design jewellery for £ks.

With the idiots out there on the roads today, a T35 has great appeal
