@kairosman i agree with you as well. I have seen the negativity rise again and again. I left audiogon a few years ago because of the the rudeness. The nastiness that has nothing to do with the question I asked. It becomes personal real quick. No worries I will not be posting in this subject again. But reading some of the responses. Learned a lot about different audiophiles. Their thought processes. Which ones that I care to have discourse with. Which ones I don’t. People that don’t know you and your journey and how they will make assumptions about you and why you post. The crazy part is most of us are are 40,50,60,70 years old and don’t understand how to interact with grown men and women who are in our hobby. Learned a whole lot. There are those who I enjoy talking to. Then there are those who take it personal. If you reading this and you got a problem with what I post. Do what I do. Keep scrolling. Be happy!
WHY IS THERE SO MUCH HATE FOR THE HIGH END GEAR ON AUDIO GEAR?
It seems like when I see comments on high end gear there is a lot of negativity. I have been an audiophile for the last 20 years. Honestly, if you know how to choose gear and match gear a lot of the high end gear is just better. When it comes to price people can charge what they want for what they create. If you don’t want it. Don’t pay for it. Look if you are blessed to afford the best bear and you can get it. It can be very sonically pleasing. Then do it. Now if you are also smart and knowledgeable you can get high end sound at mid-fi prices then do it. It’s the beauty of our our hobby. To build a system that competes with the better more expensive sounding systems out there. THOUGHTS?

Honestly I don't see how it says anything about me. I was driving a buddy's car on a pleasant afternoon (he was in the passenger seat). I was polite, he was not. Maybe I didn't describe the situation clearly enough, I guess you just had to be there. If you can read more into it than that I have no answer for you. "Your assumptions say more about you than him". Not from my perspective. Regards, barts |
@barts right, I wasn't there, I could be totally wrong.
