@tonywinga, the pics of your system in your profile look awesome, love the blue lighting.
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?

@tonywinga Very impressive system. The entire point of listening to music is to enjoy it and we do! |
Thank you kota1 for those kind words. I'm typing between songs. I just played Eminence Front, by The Who. Can't get enough of that song. I'm getting old and have been retired for about 20 months now. I am so grateful to have the time and means to invest in my audio hobby. I enjoyed listening to music from college days through my career as a form of stress relief. Now it is more enjoyable than ever. Was working high stress? Well, I tell people that when I was working I used to sleep like a baby. I would wake up during the night crying every 2 hours. Now I sleep through the night- except for when my shoulder hurts... |
