What Do You Think . . . and How Does It Work?

"This is a speaker forum..."

It is not a "speaker industry conspiracy" forum, I hope. Which is all you try to do with it.

Surprise, I am very satisfied with my speakers. They cost more than a bag of rice and profit margin must have been substantial. I do not even feel ripped off. They are "boxes" and have no concrete in them as far as I know. They even fit in my room. I'd prefer different color, though.

If you would be so kind to raise awareness of shady speaker industry practices in areas that matter. March against poor choice of colored finishes. It is much bigger problem than whatever you have been pounding on so far. The way they look actually matters.

" How dare you expect a person with a disability to simply change? Disability is not a choice. "

Behavior IS a choice. That’s why people are held accountable for it, unless they are insane.

" The onus is on you to accommodate [narcissists] ."

Your double standard for behavior only exists in your fantasy world.

Actually I think the onus is on me to make my fellow audiophiles aware of what sort of behavior they can expect from you. If our expectations are realistic, we are less likely to be caught off guard when you say or do something toxic.

For instance, I was not surprised to see you attempt "reversal", which is accusing me of the exact same behaviors you have displayed.

Nor am I surprised by your repeated attempts to bait me with allegations and accusations about my products and business. I would reply if I thought you were reasonable and asking in good faith. Experience has taught me otherwise.

And for the record, in case anyone reading this is unaware of my standing offer:

If anyone other than Kenjit is actually curious about the questions he raises, let me know and I will reply.

And if anyone has reservations about my choice to not engage with Kenjit on his terms (which I have done many times in the past with uniform results), please google "reasoning with a narcissist."

Hiding behind "disabled" when one is not, is a cheap trick. Disorder is the correct term here. Purposely and knowingly causing strife for one's own entertainment. Using tactics in attempt to make the other person believe THEY are the one in the wrong. Evading and twisting the points brought up by the target, etc. The bottom line is that the perpetrators know what they are doing all along. That is their game.

Nor am I surprised by your repeated attempts to bait me with allegations and accusations about my products and business.

The accusation comes from the fact that you cannot provide any EVIDENCE of the performance of your speakers. Its your own fault. Speaker companies do not like to talk about measurements, they prefer to rely on hearsay and reviews. And again you have made the assumption that I baited you. That was YOUR CHOICE. Another possibility is that it was an opportunity to try to justify yourself. You are not being honest with us. You offer a speaker that costs $7600 but cant give us evidence of what makes it superior to other cheaper speakers.It may well do what you claim it does but even then it doesnt make it superior.

You do not have the authority to hold me accountable. All you can do is repeatedly claim that I'm a narcissist. You dont hold a person with illness to account anyway. Its not a crime. You treat them with compassion and accommodate them. 

Behavior IS a choice. That’s why people are held accountable for it, unless they are insane.

Poppycock. This is not a court trial. And youre not the judge. Your diagnosis of narcissism isnt even valid. All you have done is stated your opinion about my behavior and that is fine. How would you know what part of my behavior is a choice or a disorder? 

Behavior is a matter of interpretation too and that is YOUR choice. 

For instance, I was not surprised to see you attempt "reversal", which is accusing me of the exact same behaviors you have displayed.

That is because you think you can call me out and other people cannot call you out. It is one rule for you and another for me. It is double standards. 

Don't play the game, guys.
