Opinions - The Absolute Sound

hi frogman:

i reread your post in which you commented on statements you believe are held by some cynical audiophiles. while i agree your statements are opinions. to suggest that that knowledge is relevant is something with which i don't agree.

accusing someone of not knowing what he/she is talking about is an ad hominem remark,in my opinion.

my comemnts did not insult you personally.

i would be willing to debate the principles of philosophy , knowledge and mathematics if you wish.

the appropriate context would be e mails or by phone.

the ball is in your court.

I'm not embarrassed to say I looked up "tautological". I would advise you guys take a chill-pill, but it is evident you both enjoy the exchange.
Lets just say, if you get the subscription, be aware that the reviews may be bias and many think TAS is rubbish. That is not reason for you to not draw your own conclusions as to the validity of content and entertainment value. Order the damn thing, its cheap.
You opine here in six months.

I need a "prescription" after reading some of these threads !

Prozac........................

Blkadr: Note that I'm not the one who used "tautological." ;) I think a little epistemology makes a nice counterpart to "the best speaker", and of course, toothpaste.

Mrtennis: Glad to see you biting the bullet on the impossibility of scientific knowledge. Hard to do nowadays (harder than it was for Plato), given the remarkable success of scientific inquiry.

As others have noted, the music reviews and writing in both TAS and Sp probably justify the cost (though I feel guilty about the paper). I've been put on to a good bit of nice music I'd not have come across otherwise.
