The science of opinion ...


Some may find this interesting (it is).

Some may find this threatening (it isn't, it is science).

Some may read it and use it to help them understand the dynamics of internet forums.

Pretty sure fake David was sent here from Ethan or ASR forums like a Terminator to save our poor souls from the evil.

These guys are in a mission. They will not stop until all of us have cheap $50 China DACs, tiny pro speakers on kiddie stools from Walmart, Crown amps from Amazon, zip cord for cables, and Chromecast for streamers.
Their mission is precisely that: burning down the entire audio industry to the ground.
"...tiny pro speakers on kiddie stools from Walmart..."
For years, my only system was a $100 boombox on a Walmart stool. It seems that those soul saviors had gotten me way before I heard about them.
"You can’t even get the sentence correct..."
"His sentence was grammatically incorrect, that’s true. But it was very close. And I think it shows he was trying."
Guys, do not forget it may be someone's third or fourth language.
Me too. A long, long time ago. But I grew up.

Are you going back to the boom box now @glupson ? Might as well. We cannot possibly tell the difference in a scientific, controlled ABX test 😂😉
thyname,

Most of the music I hear comes from an Internet radio via $50-100 Bluetooth speakers (iHome Arc and JBL Charge 3) or through a Walkman driving earphones. At least I have a few pairs of earphones. Today is a little different, I turned on amplifier and music server which, again, has been playing Internet radio. I can tell the difference in sound, but I cannot tell you one is better than the other one when music actually plays.
