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?

Wow. Spotting shoddy workmanship is not a high watermark to brag about. Any good reviewer would do that. 

As for Tommy lost, he had his day in court is still, some pretty sick sh*t to go on about in an audio forum. Having a trial in the pocket of a judge and jurisdiction where hunting humans is okay as long as you're on the "winning side" is not what you'd want people to think of yourself unless you're one sick individual with an axe to grind. 

So it seems you are the same, lame individual(s) under a new handle, as has been pointed out.

All the best,
Nonoise

@laoman, thanks for posting that note, I had no idea the word is out about those members at ASR losing all that money for nothing but a crappy name tag on their avatar, just terrible. Hopefully a few of them read this thread and save some bank from the claws of ASR.

Says he who has posted 14 comments here bagging ASR.  It was huge news, recently.

My advice - rule number one - before you attack, know your enemy.  Just the basics is necessary, but to do so this is not sufficient.  You didn't know.

Only then may you be credible.

Children don’t understand the strategy and logistics of war.
