Do you need to control what you want to hear? Or are you open to discussion?
Please keep posting. I quit reading some pages back, pretty sure everyone else has also. I appreciate all your input but you lost your audience I think.
I don't want to beat a dead horse but I'm bugged.
I just can't clear my head of this. I don't want to start a measurements vs listening war and I'd appreciate it if you guys don't, but I bought a Rogue Sphinx V3 as some of you may remember and have been enjoying it quite a bit. So, I head over to AVS and read Amir's review and he just rips it apart. But that's OK, measurements are measurements, that is not what bugs me. I learned in the early 70s that distortion numbers, etc, may not be that important to me. Then I read that he didn't even bother listening to the darn thing. That is what really bugs me. If something measures so poorly, wouldn't you want to correlate the measurements with what you hear? Do people still buy gear on measurements alone? I learned that can be a big mistake. I just don't get it, never have. Can anybody provide some insight to why some people are stuck on audio measurements? Help me package that so I can at least understand what they are thinking without dismissing them completely as a bunch of mislead sheep.
If the interest is truly to share information and help others , it helps to listen to what people say and take their input to heart and respond accordingly rather than discount it. That is well documented common knowledge. Merely preaching on one’s soapbox alone has limited utility. Anyone can do that. For example if someone requests a summary in 20 words or less or with any restrictions whatever they may be just give them what they ask for. Shouldn’t be hard. Then they should say thank you. That’s how people can click together. By listening to each other. Collaborating successfully is a team sport Just trying to help. |
You can claim it is an ad hominem attack on you, but it I was referring to the person in the video
And an appeal to authority does not make you a fellow Nobel laureate. But it is a bizarre twist on the OP’s question.
^ Well put @deludedaudiophile ^ |
Very comical! i never argued with you about some point...You put forward no point... I was suggesting listening what these three persons had to say.,..And i explained why... Saying that they are not idiots, but honorable recognized scientists, is not an ad hominem argument, because you NEVER MADE ANY POINT anyway to argue against here in a discussion ...
I am happy that you dont think i need thorazine... Good news ! But it is worst than i was thinking about you now... You judge a scientist by his appearance in a video and recommend thorazine for him BEFORE even knowing what he speak about... And you think your behaviour is ok ? i am laughing right now to your high intelligence level...
