With this logic everyone would still be using 1970's technology.

^ the overall SQ from the 80s/ 90's was not inferior to todays, I think it is much easier for less money to sound good now... but has the bar been raised?

Amplifier, tuner, and speaker technology has had mild evolutions in the last 30 years, few revolutions.

Digital has been the revolution

Yeah, the basics of amplification and electro-magnetic transducers go back to the 30's or whenever, but things like CD's, DSP's, optical links, etc don't.

Why not be honest and just say "I don't like soundstream gear because of my opinion on the company."

actually, CD's were out of date in the '30s (at least the bitrate used was out of date then) ans square speakers were tried out and abandoned in the '30s as well, but we have those back too.

Now that's interesting for a guy who lives in the Okanagon I can tell ya, it's nice living in an area like the Ok or Lower Mainland where mosquitos are very few compared to the Prairies but holy freakin' crap are the spiders ever bigger! I understand the Ok has non-venomous black widows. I once saw what I think was one in Penticton many moons ago on the side of a house. With the legspan, it was easily bigger than my outstretched hand.
