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?

Receiving criticism for saying that no measurements can tell you if you will like the 'sound'.  

 

@henry53 . The only thing that happened is some generalities were expressed about what people on average will prefer.  Many lies have been told about what was said.

If that is really what you think then you are more unintelligent than I first imagined

. Go and tell your minion leader that behaving like a seagull is not appreciated. Flying in, squawking a lot, shitting over everything and flying out again. If this is the management style he displayed at MS, then God help us.

In the meantime you might like to tell him to clean up his act, stop insulting others, recognise that he has made mistakes in his testing methodology and exercise a little humility.
