Isn’t the forum to post reviews of gear you have experience with?


So I joined this forum in 2006 because I value others opinions. But in a recent thread @kuribo states the following below…. Personally I value everyone’s opinions especially in different types of systems and rooms. Yes it’s just an opinion. But to me it’s useful. Am I wrong to think that?
Copy and paste from @Kuribo

“How do you define "superiority"? Of course all you have read here are subjective opinions because the vast majority of people here either believe their opinion actually has relevance to those besides themselves or they believe the opinions of others have relevance to themselves.”

Opinion is the tail that wags the dog. Can you imagine the whole social media enterprise devoid of opinion? As to whether any particular opinion is meaningful is for you to decide.

 

But then we come to things like confirmation bias and group think, now we may be in real trouble.

 

All the above few posts contain opinion(s).

I challenge anyone here to write a post that does not contain an opinion.

(there, I've done it).

Yes this is a place to give our opinions whether we have a clue what we’re talking about or not and there will always be those who have strong opinions about equipment, cables or even music they have no experience with.

I think we all need to remember we are all trying to learn.  We are also here to share and to help each other.
