As you can predict what I am going to say, those horns are the problem, not the GOTO driver.... Why will anyone buy GOTO driver and then not follow GOTO recommendation to use GOTO horn??? I don't think anyone buy a Lamborghini or Ferrari sport car and decide to use regular gas for unknown reason or just want to try something new and different. When the car doesnot perform on the road, it must be the car is the problem, not the driver and not the fuel that you pump into the car just because you don't want to follow the manufacture's recommendation/requirement.

You got my point.

MINGSU, your reference to cars is absolutely irrelevant and serves no other purpose then re-force your own Robb Report inspired vision that Goto drivers are some kind Lamborghini or Ferrari of audio drivers. If the objectives of car owner is to impress the neighbors with a pile of Ferraris in driveway or to pick up more teenager women in his car then I presume Lamborghini would do very fine. However, if the objective is a performance of a car then the brand of the car has much less significance and would be greatly determined by many other factors: skills of driver, surface condition, terrain type, car service level and many others.

In audio the situation is far more complex then with cars. In audio a brand that a person use, would it be a cartridge, driver, amplifier, tube, cable, DAC or anything ales, has absolutely no deterministic value to the final result a person get. In fact the only deterministic factor I know in audio is the reference points of playback owner as anything in audio is subordinate to his will. Those reference points is exactly what I question in many Goto users and from what I see instead of demanding and demonstration of own reference points then embrace some kind of bizarre generic Goto idiocy, presuming that the Goto drivers act as a shield that protect them from common sense and a needs to have a rudimental understanding of what they do.

BTW, your reference to Lamborghini, Ferrari and the similar “moves” is very expected. I think instead of taking about Lamborghinis and Ferraris the Goto user might educate themselves a bit. Otherwise they will remind just the people who glue Lamborghinis emblems to Volkswagen and then push the Volkswagens from the hill by hands.
