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.

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.

That’s OK glupson. We’ll all get old someday. Enjoy as long as it lasts. Cheers. Good night
I laughed when I read this. I had a high end (at the time) Fisher Boom Box (no really, they had some good ones, this one even had a phono input), that I had lent to my girlfriend. When we broke up, it was "displeasure of asking for it back, or just forget about it".  I chose to forget about it, but years later regretted it. It was a piece of nostalgia I wish I would have kept. I never regretted breaking up :-)

"...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.

So... who are you @atdavid? What is your real Facebook name? Or at least, can you share your handle on ASR forums? I can clearly tell you are not Ethan, but I am pretty sure you are one of the other Masters
