Brave man, McGowan...

Brave for sure. This will alienate a bunch of people. All cable haters and snake oilers. Very risky business for Paul to post this in public forum.

And see, here is thyname, clearly illustrating my posts.

1) I never call something "snake oil". I state, very clearly, why I think a claim is false and where appropriate will expand (even offering verifiable information or links to things supporting my claims).

2) The rest of your post is nothing but both a "call to authority", a "strawman" and an "ad hominem".  As opposed to addressing what I say, you attempt to attack me, claim to win an argument by stating something irrelevant, and attempt to claim authority because you have spent a fair amount of money on equipment (that you have placed into a far from ideal room).

thyname OP490 posts11-28-2019 11:05amAtdavid Ethan: But you never teach anything! You just slam whatever anyone else posts as snake oil. You refuse to even post your current setup, for some stupid “insurance” excuses.

So let’s get started, first thing first: what speakers do you have? I am eager to learn from the “pros”

Tell me: why my room is a shoe box? Like you insulted me before. Do you know its dimensions? You can only see one picture I have there. 
And why do you think I am attacking you? I have asked you a legitimate question. Several times. Let’s try again:

What is your current audio system?. first thing first: what speakers do you have? I am eager to learn from the “pros”

You said you work in the industry as a consultant. What do you exactly consult on? And you consult individuals or businesses? Just a slight disclosure as to who you exactly are here would help.
You clearly have no interest in learning from me, and what speakers I have would only tell you my personal preference, not what you like, so almost meaningless, but you keep fishing. Let me know if your line breaks or your hook gets snagged.  And ... whatever speakers I have, is meaningless to any of the discussions I have participated in or the comments I have posted.  Similarly, what or who I consult too has little meaning.

You can either refute/argue with the content of my statements or you can't. Who I am, what I am, what equipment I own, is totally meaningless. However, if you are so curious, I think if you go through all my posts, there may be some hints about my room. Caution though, as has been told to me, I make a lot of posts  :-)
OK sunshine. Keep dodging my questions....

The only thing you have mentioned is how you spent $ 8-10K for your room. Whatever that means, as you obviously have no pictures or details to back this claim up 🤭

Let’s try this again, without going over your personal details:

What is your ideal audio setup? Speakers, amplification, DACs,.,, the whole chain?

Instead of telling people what NOT to do, and “... state, very clearly, why I think a claim is false and where appropriate will expand (even offering verifiable information or links to things supporting my claims)”” —- to quote you —— wouldn’t it be more helpful for people you seek to teach to tell them what to do? Legitimate question.
thyname,

If you spent time in threads that were not just tweaks, you would know that I don’t just say "don’t do that". But again, and --- Y O U ---- still do not understand this. Either address what I post, or don’t, but I am not going to entertain attacks on me, or meaningless attempted calls to authority, or straw-mans.

And you specifically I have no interest in dealing with, just like I had 0 interest in dealing with you on FB. You creep me out.

If you were not so lazy and narrow in your reading on here, you would know (and should know) that I have views that are both contrary to and agree with the divisive sides on here.
