Audio Science Review = "The better the measurement, the better the sound" philosophy

It’s about their malicious campaign against audiophiles in all audio social sites

I guess I have never noticed this, maybe because I do not know who "they" are.  Is Amir a poster here, or at Audio Asylum, or at What's Best Forum, or another site?  Is there an organized cadre of ASR members who purposely campaign against subjective evaluation of audio equipment?  I am not arguing, but I just haven't seen it outside of the typical back and forth that goes on here.

'Science brought us cellphones and high yield crops to feed the world. Pseudoscience is politically charged technobabble that benefits the few.'

Once upon a time scientists toiled away in their spare time hoping to leave behind them more than a footnote in the annals of their chosen field.

Later on it was the Nobel prize and the prizemoney that went with it.

Or perhaps a tenureship at a prestigious university.

Nowadays, more often than not they find themselves toiling away to enable their employer to increase their profits. Truth and honesty are dangerous words which can lead to instant termination of contracts.

Yet not everyone is given to feeding the globalists unquenchable thirst for ever greater profits. There are still many fine people who work selflessly for the common good.

You only need to look online for free Open Source software for evidence of that. I would argue that sites like ASR fall into the same camp.

'I fail to understand the level of anger and name-calling that results from the ASR site posting measurements and their personal opinions, while it is apparently ok for the "wisdom of the masses" on sites like this to encourage people to spend thousands of dollars on multi-colored fuses, expensive cables, incomprehensible tweaks, or digital add-ons and doodads that become obsolete about every two years as the manufacturer releases the next latest and greatest.

Did someone kill a sacred cow?'

Maybe not a sacred cow, perhaps merely someone’s high yielding cash cow .

If sites like ASR continue to expose poorly engineered overpriced equipment then quite rightly it might affect sales.

Unfortunately, as we’ve recently seen all over the globe, not everyone has the consumers best interests at heart.

Thankfully, someone still does.
