Some don't know much about audio either. An RS salesdroid denied the
fact that RS no longer sells Hi-Fi equipment. He didn't understand
why a loudspeaker system with a low-end frequency response of 50Hz
isn't considered hi-fi. Not one loudspeaker, or woofer, sold by RS,
has a low end response of 20Hz or lower. No little charts anywhere in
the catalog showed any freq. response curves. The distortion ratings
for some of the "good" amplifiers sold at RS are rather high as well,
but the RS sales clerk didn't understand that little problem either.
As far as he was concerned, RS is still selling hi-fi equipment.
