Audio Friends Don't Let Audio Friends ...

Your fellow audiophile who always had a system you enjoyed

makes a significant change in gear. You find it to be a major

downgrade in SQ in one way or another.

You know the person does not have a trial period covering the new purchase.

Question:

Do you tell them exactly how you feel about the change

or simply smile thinking- everyone hears differently so

you should not provide a true statement of your feelings?

How have you treated this situation in the past?

Actually I am of some assistance @chorus … tell them your feelings and never sugar coat a friend.
