Why Are People So Concerned About How Others Spend Their Money?

It's really tiring. Audiophools, Snake Oil, why buy this/that. I don't give a rip what others do, although I like to read about it but none of my business. I'm just not geared that way. People want to buy a Lambo, 10,000 buck cables, 100,000 buck loudspeakers, it's no skin off my nose yet some people are obsessed with what others do. I don't get it.

Ted has a business. Manufacturing stuff. Employs people. In exchange for salary. It’s called “business”. Capitalism 101. Deal with it. Or migrate to North Korea.

The success of a business, or lack thereof, depends on whether people buy the stuff. Again, capitalism 101. If you don’t like it, migrate to North Korea. See how that works out.

Capitalism 101 is college level. These people flunked out of kindergarten lemonade stand.

In a double-blind A/B test at normal listening levels most people would have a hard time distinguishing between LS50s and speakers that cost 100x as much.

This comment combination hash drink and lack experience. That speaker ok for canoe system but what you have company stock and want speaker upgrade? Merry Christmas to all good audiophile hope Santa good you.
