    But the lack of grain alone is worth 10k ;)

    Oh you meant that Dave. It has quite a few fans and, based on my experiences with more affordable (hahahaha) Chord stuff, I'm sure it does well, but at that price I have to wonder about value proposition.

    I was once a huge chord fan and adored dave so much -- at least thought it $2-3k good. Now not so sure.. politely speaking.

    I can do a lot for 12k, like getting a new car.

    I can objectively say you should not spend 12k on a Chord Dave. :P

    Well, I mean, if you pay retail for a DAVE you are a potato. However, yes you are still a dork regardless, but not in a bad way. I *loved* my DAVE whilst I owned it, and if I could still own one I would. Priorities within my set up made me go a different route, but, I still miss the DAVE :)
