I totally agree. I stopped reading reviews after I switched over to Meridian 10 years ago.

I appreciate all the comments in this thread.

I'm convinced about the technology, and I'd buy an HD621 in a heartbeat if I knew the G68/861V4 would not get apodizing. But I'd kick myself in the butt if I bought it today and they came out with it tomorrow. I mostly want it for music, I don't care about improving movies all that much. And there is that complication of now getting SPDIF from Transporter into the HD621 which I'm willing to deal with but it would be a shame if I went to all that trouble and the firmware came out soon after.

If you think listening to music is fun, try learning an instrument.
