Why the truth is not in them ??


I wonder how many people have been told something by a buyer, that was no where near the truth....I hate to think how many times I  have been told that I will send a Pay-Pal tomorrow, or I'll send you a check tonight....and never do anything of the kind.....I've been waiting for two weeks for a check from a guy in Michigan  , I have sold a item 13 times on another web-site based on what a person has told me and never received the first penny..........Does anyone tell the truth anymore ??   I have one web-site that I do business on that has a 98% negative truth rate.....Isn't that a poor way to deal with people ??     What are your experience ??

I sell MAHL tweeters that I manufacture on EBay and then Klipsch speakers, primarily the pro side of things that I have rebuilt and refurbished on Craigslist. I have had hardly any trouble with the Klipsch owners/buyers and these two venues. I have more trouble with post office or FEDEX damage than customers.

  I have no idea what it would be like to sell somewhere like Audiogon but with as many crazy things as are sold here I would expect crazy buyers and trouble over time too. Fraud happens on Craigslist but is easy to spot and you just don't open the door to trouble you will do fine.
mijostyn,

The Tekton idea of using multiple tweeters to cover the entire midrange (and up) seems great in theory because of the reduced mass for the equivalent surface area of a conventional midrange unit.

Are they a box that sounds like an electrostatic, without the drawbacks?

Apparently they’re not unique. A company in Germany (Concrete Audio acc to 6moons) has a model with 41 tweeters. Intriguingly, the original patent is held by the Fraunhofer Institute.

So what’s going on here? What’s the drawback? What’s the truth? Why is it so difficult to establish?

Is it simply a human construct relative to the time and location of its conception?  Should we ask Bill Clinton?

I’m also hoping that Mahgister doesn’t chip in to point out that we’re all nothing more than a collection of disparate atoms held vicariously in a magnetic space field.

It might be true, but I can’t see how it helps.

If you read my post you will know that i am more a poet than a scientist, even if i had read more science books than some...

I NEVER post words implying some reductionist attitude, like you suggest i has did or will do...

Then dont attack me by false affirmation about me....

By the way anything i say about audio is always the results of my homemade low cost many experiments...



And finally man is not: "only a collection of dispate atoms at all vicariously held in a nagnetic space field"....Bad science is not for me sorry....

I dont want to be your bowl of soup...

My best to you...

@mahgister,

Most of us are in someone's else's bowl of soup. At least some of the time. 

It still doesn't get us any nearer to understanding this nebulous notion of truth and ethics. 

Maybe the best we can do is to recall that old adage, 

"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you".

It could even work, it might just, but we'd all have to follow it, not just some of us.

mahgister, it helps to keep in mind a lot of the criticism is coming from people with a tenuous connection with reality. Like my post, there's zero personal attacks in it yet two guys make stuff up about it, attack me personally, and one even ignores actual ad hominems directed at me and accuses me of being the one resorting to ad hominems. Unreal.

If that's how ill-equipped they are to understand clear concise prose imagine how they must struggle with your ideas. Poetry is beautiful because of the complex of inexpressible feelings and ideas it digs up. But to get complex and hard to express ideas it helps to be capable of having ideas and thinking about things. This rules them out, and so of course they get frustrated.

Most of what we're doing is frankly beyond them. Might be literally truly beyond them, as in no matter what they never will get it. Or might be beyond them merely by virtue of being too physically or mentally lazy to get up off the comfortable couch and try. Either way they're not getting it.

So don't let them get to you. To do what we do takes imagination, creativity, intelligence, and perseverance. It takes initiative. Qualities they lack. You are Michael Jordan, effortlessly performing layups. Don't be surprised or get upset when they start talking trash. Talk is all they have. Let em have their fun. We have our music. But who knows, trashing others may be the one thing that gives their lives meaning.
