I agree in principle, but the trouble is that "audiophile" brands are almost all "small outfits". 

 

Indeed.  As I look over to my system, I am pretty sure that my speakers, DAC, and amplifier were produced by companies made up of a grand total of 2 guys.

 

But we are at risk with larger companies as well. If my Sony Blu player has problems, it is off to the landfill.  Same with my LG tv.  Not worth fixing out of warranty, if you can even find a tech.

And, bingo, my crappy LG tv just quit.  Could be the LEDs, could be the input board, could be the power board, though the boards looked fine.  It is going to the curb this weekend.
