Most rooms don’t need acoustical treatment.

"He define stupidity bash others without gaining anything for himself in the process even at the price of losing his own credibility ...Except the pleasure to do it....."

I have not read that book, but assuming that above description is correct, Carlo lost all the credibility. One could even say that he lost credibility by bashing those who are seeking pleasure.

"Without gaining anything for himself...except the pleasure to do it..." Carlo arrogantly decided that one’s pleasure is worthless "nothing". He has never heard of hobbies, passion, love, dedication, or a few more like that?

Glupson you are beside the point....

The pleasure to bash others is not worth anything at all indeed...

The book of Cipolla you never read is universally reviewed for being humorous and right on the spot... Then you could criticize my use of the book but the book itself is very good and free...


Here i proposed ideas of my own and i am open to discuss without bashing others nor any group of people.... That was my point...I correct myself when i am wrong....I am not perfect ....

I am open to criticism...About any concept....I am here to communicate and learn...
Creativity is not a defect by the way, even when wrong...To date all my experiments give me pleasure and also to some others who repeat them successfully... If someone is not interested by my ideas it is not necessary for him  to read my posts...

But if someone out of the sky come and trash all others audiophiles ideas, devices, or suggestions, from the start because of his superior knowledge i dont go with that without discussing with ARGUMENTS, if you had read me you already know that...... Bashing audiophiles for being audiophile that seems not too healthy to me...

Perhaps my enthusiasm innerve you then i am sorry....Dont read my posts....And dont add that all "pleasure" are equal.... It is ridiculous and wrong....All pleasures are not right nor equal to each others...I defend myself but i dont take any pleasure to bash anybody, but i am able to defend myself if someone attack me without any sound arguments...Blind test is not an argument nor a reason to reject from the start any unorthodox means to play with sound...And not a reason to accuse all audiophiles to be stupid.... Then i reacted with arguments and experiments to prove my point....


 Is it not enough? you said it is too much.... but for whom? 



If i cannot be of interest for others here i will quit...It seems some others like my contribution.....Then i go on...

mahgister,

See this...

"The pleasure to bash others is not worth anything at all indeed..."

It would be true only if the person stating it (let's say it is you this time) is someone whose statements are not allowed to be scrutinized. Dogma, religion, whatever absolute power one may call it. At the same time, most of the world does not care what your, or mine, opinion is. That does  not mean they are wrong. That means that thinking that someone's way of obtaining pleasure is not worth anything is nothing but an arrogant statement bashing other people. That is why Carlo lost credibility. Even if one gets pleasure of bashing others, it is worth it. Not to you or me, but to the person getting that pleasure. In fact, it has been a while since I have read a statement quoted that was so wrong as this one you mentioned.

I notice you read a lot, but I also notice you do not read critically that much. I may be wrong, but that is how it looks from the side. Just because someone wrote something, does not make it correct. In this example, Carlo is actually not worth considering reading. In my opinion, not in universal opinion.

Creativity is really a great thing to have and you might have not understood my point completely. Creativity that gets self-indulgent ocassionally ends up being recognized as a psychosis, bipolar disorder, or what not. Moderation is the key.

TROLL.

Of course room treatments don't matter.  Neither does the room size or shape, nor the surface materials, nor the type, size and placement of furniture, nor where you sit nor even which direction your speakers are facing.

IF you're listening on headphones....

Even if one gets pleasure of bashing others, it is worth it. Not to you or me, but to the person getting that pleasure.

glupson i accepted your advice about moderation... Because it is wise advice...and i accept all wise advices...


For the rest if i can accept a friendly advice about moderation, i cannot permit you to judge me accusing me of bipolar disorder or psychosis... This is insulting... Am i insulting you?




i respected you, why not also respecting me?



My pleasure HERE is communicating friendly with those who partake passion for the sound improvement....





For my critical faculty it is not necessary to say anything....
