Everything Matters With Digital

It’s a little maddening for people who are empirically minded to see others set money ablaze over the placebo affect. 

It’s why they conduct medical trials the way they do, people can and do experience relief when no treatment was administered.

That's pretty colorful language, but there's no evidence that anyone here is setting "money ablaze."

If you find this group "maddening," perhaps you are in the wrong group.

Everything matters, IME, too.  Even when I hope it won't (USB cable? yep)

It is tiresome that the self-appointed "saviors" wielding theoretical logic come here to save us from ourselves.  Their passion for riding their hobby horse seems telling.  Why don't they just try a bunch of stuff out for themselves?  Crazy, laughable idea, I know.

Ignore those folks as they are just being ignorant.....on purpose.  Why? Because they have chosen to be ignorant by not accumulating any actual listening experience with all the wonderful digital audio innovations coming out.  They should just be ignored.  Hard to do, but we have no other choice. 

Naysayers here and psychologically crippled forums like Audioscience inspired me to order an Uptone etherREGEN today.  So far I have been impressed by "audiophile" innovations in the Ethernet/USB domain.  My wallet is open to experiments-- within reasonable limits-- which are modest relative to the trend toward overarching prices in analog audio.
