Curl or Pass

I am with @clifff on this even if he had one post. He may have been lurking for some time, who knows.

The @georgehifi post is a perfect example. George loves the Tom Evans phono stages because he "Has models that have big gain so you only need a passive pre to go with them" and George sells Passive preamps.

Someone asks a question and the responses are so off topic it's crazy.

OP, Sorry about the rant. It would be a better site if posters could get answers to their questions instead of posts from brand name campaigners.

@clifff How does anyone with three post say "for the umpteenth time!"

While I agree that these types of questions often result in posts going off topic quickly, how many people are going to have owned the exact two items someone is asking about? 

I don't know about most people, but I don't usually make a sideways move when I replace equipment.  There's a much better chance that someone would have experience comparing the difference between a $500 phono stage to a $2000 phono stage than what two similarly priced and performing items sound like.

The @georgehifi post is a perfect example. George loves the Tom Evans phono stages because he "Has models that have big gain so you only need a passive pre to go with them" and George sells Passive preamps.

You are blind to what I said. It then saves the owner then paying $$$$ for a useless line stage preamp.
I’m not telling him to purchase a Lightspeed, a simple $49 Schiit Sys passive would then do, get off your "active preamp pedestal".

And your response here makes you the perfect example. Instead of being responsive to the question from the OP, you just want to campaign your agenda, and when you get called on it you just continue to campaign your agenda, and try to misinform regarding my agenda or pedestal. 

By the way, I am on the “Please try and give a responsive answer to the OP pedestal”

Have a great day!
