i agree.
it's the wrong kind of thinking to say something is not worth it because it is not "x" times better than something else. that kind of logic if applied rigorously would lead one to stop at an ipod + stock earbuds.
in audio the value of the improvement should not be judged by its cost, since what is affordable or reasonable is entirely subjective and relative.

Look at the 12au7 tubes I got...they sound awesome, I wouldn't swap them with anything else, but do they sound 4 times better than, to say, Telefunken smoothplates? Ofc not. That's not what you have to expect when dealing with high-end gear. |
