Reminds me of the Commissioner of the United States Patent Office who in 1899 said the office should be closed soon because there was nothing left to invent.
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?

Maybe Amir chooses to respond only to people with higher functioning cognitive abilities. Not interesting at all for those here who watch what you post. |
Who claims there’s nothing left to invent? Immersive audio recording and playback is a relatively new invention and I imagine improvements will continue to be invented. DIRAC is getting reading to release a new invention of their room correction. A new type of DAC chip or amplifier could be invented but I don’t see much direction there as those available now are capable of reproducing the medium beyond human audibility, doesn’t mean someone somewhere isn’t working on something new. I believe Atmasphere a contributor here invented a new type of class D amp. |
