Why aren't hipsters allowed to like compact discs?

What a great lecture. Can I have my diploma now?

Oh, you're not done pounding your chests and grunting? Okay, I'll wait.

I will give you the fact that they don't say RMS for that amp, how about this one that it replaced ? I only assumed the 7400 was 400RMS because the amp it replaced WAS 400w RMS.
And Bob Carver's Speaker line is not indicative of the majority of the home theatre market. They only recently started making speakers to fill a niche for Electrstatic Ribbon speaker fans. If you are looking at most of what is offered by B&W, Legacy, or even cheap brands like Cerwin Vega you will see they all could eat up 400W RMS without a second thought.
On your thoughts of people just going for the highest Wattage possible, this is one of the reasons I like brands like Sunfire a lot more than brands like McIntosh. They have good, quality components that focus on efficiency and quality, rather than simply throwing more power at the problem.

This is a thread about hipsters, nay ? What would a hipster community be like without arguments about what is best ? ;)
Scandanavian War Machine:
You're right! What a fool I've been!
Carry on, gentlemen.
a pack of wolves:
There's more to it than just the frequencies. I have neither the refined hearing nor the equipment for there to be a sound quality difference between CDs and vinyl that I can detect but given the option I always buy vinyl. I prefer the greater physicality it brings to listening to a record, and the bigger album art and booklets. All the great woodcuts in the booklet for 'Sackcloth And Ashes The Ostrich Dies On Monday' by Submission Hold wouldn't look nearly as good in a CD booklet. And then there's the separation of the sides which some records use to great effect. 'Lift Yr Skinny Wrists...' by GYBE is a good example, or of course any split release.
