Why should audiophile deniers be allowed on an audiophile forum?


Why should we be subjected to audiophile deniers, on a site dedicated to audio?
It’s antithetical to the hobby and adds nothing to the pursuit. I want to quote something from another thread.

@djones51 wrote "exposing bull products like "audiophile switches, cables, fuses " and other highly questionable devices that serve no purpose"

What then, is the purpose of people with this agenda being on this site? To “expose bull products.” It’s fine for someone to post they tried a product and it didn’t work for them, but to dismiss entire product categories is not a discussion that belongs on an enthusiast forum.

Would a car enthusiast site stand for this type of post?

Try going on a Porsche forum, just for example, and posting that your Mustang is just as fast 0-60 and that others poster’s claims about their driving experience is “dubious.” See how long that will be tolerated

There are plenty of sites to poke fun at audiophile’s obsession with cables, power conditioners etc. Why does it belong here, especially when we can’t mute specific posters?

What’s next? Arguing that speakers that measure the same must sound the same and that we are all suckers for buying expensive speakers? I thought we got rid of trolling?

Isn’t it obvious with all the ASR related posts here lately we are being trolled?

A couple of months back I read a post here about someone that ordered a new cat8 cable from China. I tried it and posted back my fantastic results for others to benefit.

Personally that’s the kind of forum I’m interested in, not to come here to be challenged about what I hear and that since it can’t be measured so it must be “dubious.”

From a problem about censorship and the origin of civilization and language, and the meaning of science and money,  some here will drag the question in the left and right binary small politic Trump/Biden  gutter instead of the high road of thinking about a world crisis , i smell it already...

yes i am too pedantic...i know...

😁😊

How is the alternative going to cost them more?  It will right now, but if companies in critical infrastructure cannot drop clients then there would be no downside as you can't drop them, so you can't be blamed for having them as a client.

The only way this could be enforced is with government banks. Banks would think long and hard before they invest in any company they feel could disenfranchise their existing customers unless you're saying they have to do business with them not just drop them. 

The bank does business with a company 80 of these people feel goes against their personal beliefs so they threaten to withdraw their money.

The problem you discuss is a 18 century problem 19 century one at best...

The problem nowadays is about centralized money control and tracking... There is no more private banks, awake there is only controlled finances... ...There is no more capitalistic competition either... Awake...

There is no more middle class...Even Hollywood exist no more...And there is no more newspapers either...

Why do you think the power in America speak so much about democracy asnd the way to export it?

There is no democracy left even here in Canada...

Awake...

 

 

 

I dont speak for you djones but for all of us...

I have no idea what you're talking about 99% of the time and I doubt very few here do either. If the American Empire falls the world falls with it.  We'll see what replaces it unless we can manage our decline as well as the Roman Empire. 

Are you serious? i understand your point i dont want America to fall i am Canadian our destiny are linked...But awake, the world is unhabited by billions of people who dont give a damn about america...

Borrow a chinese film and indian one or an african one....

If Rambo fail we fail as human species? 😁😊

 

If the American Empire falls the world falls with it.

if you want a clue about what i was talking about listen to this video it will be a beginning...

By the way thinking is not a hobby it is a necessity....

 

By the way the problem is not about the decline of america , America is only a smallpart of Occidental christian civilization, it is this civilization who has lost his bearings...

To understand why we must understand the passage from the renaissance to the industrial age...

Study Bernard Mandeville the father of capitalism, of political psychoanalysis, and the most underestimated genius with Goethe in the last centuries...A cynical genius which make Machiavel a naive man and Kissinger a boy scout...
