Audio nonsense


In this wonderful world of audio that we journey through folks selling stuff have sometimes been inventive in what they claim. In your trip down this road what sticks out as the most ludicrous thing you’ve seen someone try to sell? 
 

I can point to 2 things. When I first saw a Tice clock in a store I thought it was a gag. Next- Peter Belt.

I at least owe it to myself to try it. I don’t have to understand how or why it works, I just need to try it and see if it works for me.

Isn’t that what being an audiophile is about?

This is something that children want to do at Disneyland or in the candy/toy section at the shops.

As adults, we can normally acknowledge this desire in ourselves at times and make an informed and intelligent decision.  Or not.

How can one formulate an opinion on something they have never tried.

I form these opinions everyday. I’ve never walked off a skyscraper nor walked in front of a train but I have formulated an opinion as to the results. The efficacy of these idiotic contraptions take the same level of common sense.

This site is gone, gone, real gone. The sheer amount of ignorance and anti-innovativeness is astounding. If a company was run with the lack of wisdom and intentional curiosity now found on this forum, then that company would fail by becoming irrelevant in very short order. Nonsense begins with a closed and limited mind that stifles the spirit of curiosity and learning.

Nice strawman argument. Is that the best you can do?

 

I see the objectivists are out in full regalia in this thread. So much fodder for them...
