Audio Science Review = "The better the measurement, the better the sound" philosophy


"Audiophiles are Snobs"  Youtube features an idiot!  He states, with no equivocation,  that $5,000 and $10,000 speakers sound equally good and a $500 and $5,000 integrated amp sound equally good.  He is either deaf or a liar or both! 

There is a site filled with posters like him called Audio Science Review.  If a reasonable person posts, they immediately tear him down, using selected words and/or sentences from the reasonable poster as100% proof that the audiophile is dumb and stupid with his money. They also occasionally state that the high end audio equipment/cable/tweak sellers are criminals who commit fraud on the public.  They often state that if something scientifically measures better, then it sounds better.   They give no credence to unmeasurable sound factors like PRAT and Ambiance.   Some of the posters music choices range from rap to hip hop and anything pop oriented created in the past from 1995.  

Have any of audiogon (or any other reasonable audio forum site) posters encountered this horrible group of miscreants?

Their site their rules is not correct .Not when they are denying people their legal and fundamental rights of opinion and expression.

For example I am an Australian citizen and under the laws of my country these rights are protected by law-

Right to freedom of opinion and expression

 
 
 
 
The right to freedom of opinion is the right to hold opinions without interference, and cannot be subject to any exception or restriction.

I don't believe ASR is under the jurisdiction of the Australian government.

Yes but they are under the jurisdiction of wherever they are located.USA I am guessing.Or maybe they a wing of the North Korean government.They certainly act like it.
