For Your Edification and Enjoyment re "Burn In", etc.


Just published at Dagogo.com, my article "Audiophile Law: Burn In Test Redux". 

Validation of my decision ten years ago.  :)

And audio2design misses the point or deliberately derails things. There is no need to scientifically prove something that you hear through experimenting with your system to someone else as if we live in a science lab just and they're playing lord of the manor. 

They are not here to enjoy the hobby but to make sure you don't. What drives them is up for debate and differs from troll to troll and of no real concern. They have issues and exist simply to provoke. 

Maybe once the vaccines are more widely distributed, they can get out, relax, and get a life. Until then, we here who enjoy this hobby have to endure their affliction for awhile longer.

All the best,

I dont think audio2design is some sort of troll or has some failing I just think he and others feel some need to save us from ourselves and our hard earned dollars which I dont understand. This camp does usually seem to imply either gullibility or stupidity which is a bit frustrating. I defer to them as being wiser, more educated and having better hearing. But for now I thank the stars that I am stupid and gullible. Also you can throw in a bit of first world decadence for good measure. 
In the meantime... I have this past two weeks been working once again with the distinctly different modes of the Legacy Audio Whisper DSW Clarity Edition speaker. 

Guess what I have been doing? Building systems, and comparing active x-over to passive x-over setups. I will tell you now, this kind of activity is quite fun! Lots of different sound experiences, and some great insights into systems. Using the identical speaker for both modes is a distinct advantage. 

Similar to the comparisons with the methods/tweaks that I wrote about in the articles. There is no replacing experience in many respects, and having the experience of actually informally testing such things gives clarity to what is important in building a superior system, and of course, enjoying to the fullest the system.   :)

Thanks for the laughs. I needed that.
