Guilty of being over enthusiastic.
The thing is, I found a guy on my doorstep, making stuff that battered my (then) dream amplifier.
It was amazing to me. Yes, I probably got a bit carried away and probably boring but hey, I was new to this and it really did amaze me.
What pissed me off about this post is whenever there is a speaker question, I can predict with regularity who will recommend Tannoys at every opportunity. Are they shilling Tannoys? Or are they simply relaying their absolute recommendation for a speaker solution.
There are multiple threads where I can demonstrate that the same people recommend the same gear but because they are "big brands" it's perfectly fine. Do this with a Trader or a cottage industry manufacturer and it's shilling.
What it is, is bullshit.
