Why do many discussions about sonic performance disintegrate into technical discusions?


Guys I have noticed that certain members start with technical back and forth in discussions which look like they are self serving, to prove how smart or knowledgable they are, rather then forwarding the OP's original question.

Shouldn’t these discussions be moved into a separate post about technical stuff ie the techical merits of bibolar vs mosfets for example, if these members want to do that?

I think most member don’t care if a Krell amp uses brand x or y for transistors vs a Pass or any other amp, I think most people are more concerned with what the sonic differences there are vs specific technical arguments that are not related to the sonic flavor or design methodologies that these product use to produce their sound, what do you guys think?

I am with Geoffkait. These threads sound like something Woody Allen wrote. The male male egos here can't even agree on the definition of technical.
Sonic performance: This tweak is amazing, the earth moved and the heavens opened up and my million dollar system suddenly sounds one hundred thousand times better with this mere $299.95 tweak.

Technical Discussion: How can hemorrhoid cream possibly help you get better sound? Why does audiophile hemorrhoid cream cost so much more than regular hemorrhoid cream? Where do you apply it? Did your wife try it and does she like it too? (If the wife likes it then it’s solid technology - bona fide! In a technical discussion if the wife’s gives her thumbs up then it is like a knock out in boxing.)
Maybe we should let AudioTroy give an answer. He seems to have little to say since he started this thread.....
