Re: [OT] hifi was:[OM] Lens TestI would liken Leica to Audio Research or
maybe Jadis
Olympus would be more like Naim or Linn

  Oh, that's *bad*. Olympus is *much* better than that Pianear crap. Let me
see, working backwards, I can say that the "Leica" of audio gear *has* to be
McIntosh. I'd say that the "Olympus" of audio gear is probably more like
Luxman or Nakamichi.

  Be seeing you.
