Which is really weird given that far too many of the "high end" ads show very pretty women with the implication that they will have wild sex with the "product" if they buy the appropriate speaker cable, tube amp, etc. The current (Sept 10) Stereophile is a bit better on this, but the current TAS has at least two gratuitous pretty ladies: Vincent, Renohifi, At least the high end brandy and cigars are likely not to run away from the middle aged white guy who is into stereo stuff. -- Pat Farrell http://www.pfarrell.com/ _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
