I hope so!
I just read As We See It from Nov. 1994.
Thanks JA! Gives hope to us poor guys that we can get High End equipment that we can afford! Of course it helps that you review "budget" components fairly often(like the Infinity Primus P 162 this month). BTW, I don't mind you reviewing expensive stuff that I'll never afford.
It's nice to dream and I'm sure there are readers who can afford such stuff. I'm not your only reader! You have a good balance; keep it up! P.S. I wasn't sure where to post this, sorry Stephen!

My wife likes to tease me about Hi Fi and how I disappear in plain sight on the evening that Stereophile arrives each month, so I told her that I really read the magazine

I just wanted to thank JA for this column.
I know much has been said on this topic, but I found it interesting. I am a former subscriber to Stereo Review(it's true!)and I must say that while I did learn from them, I like reading the"other side"! You guys make me think!! I've read this twice now & still am learning from it. Glad I subscribed!

Something happened in the mid 1970

Greetings. I'm interested in assembling a system that I will use only for listening to music (mostly jazz). I would like to have either an integrated tube amp or separate tube pre-amp and tube amp, and a turntable. I have a budget of approximately $3,000 - $4,000, and I already have speakers picked out (which will not come out of my $3,000 budget). So, I have $3,000 - $4,000 to spend on amplification and a turntable.

I would appreciate any recommendations you may have for makes and models that might be suitable for my situation.
