Apologies if my comment came across that way. It was meant to highlight this aspect of equipment which should most definitely be considered when spending sizeable sums on audio products. IMO, if you make a product everything should be addressed, the design, the construction, the performance, consumer safety and CE. Over the past 40 years that I have been involved in audio, I have seen and witnessed poor build quality in equipment which has given this industry a bad name, especially to small companies who specialise in offering performance that the bigger companies can't match for the price. No one mentions it, not even the reviewers, probably as most wouldn't know what was good design and good construction, and most audiophiles have no clue either, especially today. Ultimately, it is up to the buying individual to make the choice, but they should be aware of what they are buying. There is no excuse for poor build quality.
Note: before I started manufacturing, I used to service and repair all of the top high end HiFi for several shops and distributors. I was totally horrified when working on some of this equipment how poor some of it was. This was one of the factors in why I started my own manufacturing brand. I remember opening up a 300B amplifier made here in the UK and I was aghast when I took the bottom panel off, as the outside of the chassis was sprayed black, but on opening it up the inside was full of rust. They had painted the outside of the case but not the inside. It would have only cost pennies to run the spray gun around the inside of the chassis. Also, to fill up a few holes in the back panel, 2 pence pieces were glued to the inside of the chassis and filled and sprayed on the outside. Thankfully the company that made this didn't last very long. Occasionally I was pleasantly surprised when something good arrived and it was aways a pleasure and a privilege to work on such equipment.
