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

@fair +10  I knew about the centrifugal forces which create a "bulge" in the earth's center since the 1970s.  It is considered an oblate ellipsoid rather than a perfect sphere according to scientists.  Arguing against that is considered like stating the earth is flat.  The latter statement of the earth ASR members agree on.  The former statement of the earth, apparently they do not.  And are they nasty denying it without any facts I bet in their denunciation.  Hence, I will not rejoin ASR under a fake name as it doesn't matter after my rude introduction and banishment by Amir.  

May they keep their religion far away from us.  

@crymeanaudioriver Many of you who got turfed at ASR were flat earth followers visiting a science site. What did you expect?

Its all rather odd, perhaps confined to American culture, because I have not seen this level of self pity anywhere else..

Like if a bloke walks into the women’s shower room and is not only surprised when he is booted out, but then goes onto pontificate at the standards observed in their shower room and the poor quality of nakedness he observed.

It is really nothing to write home about in terms of asr’s audio gears testing. Audioholics and Erin’s Audio Corner could do and actually were doing better jobs. Their recommendations are found more objective and thrustworthy because, as Stereophile does, they complement the measurements with critical listening in great length to give more comprehensive assessment. That covers not only the traditionally available measurement matrices but also important sound traits that can not be measured today such as soundstages and other psychoaccoustic elements. If asr/Amir proclaims you are the better scientific guys, prove it.

@henry53 "...an audio product sounds bad based solely on a THD of 0.003% compared to another product with 0.001% ..."

@crymeanaudioriver "...Haven't we had enough hyperbole and lying for one topic already?..."

Correct me if I'm wrong but THD is part of the SINAD formula, I think. So wouldn't a higher THD number put it further down the list on the SINAD chart. Isn't the whole idea of SINAD to rate sound quality? 

@fleschler +1 "Now I think I will begin another forum concerning manufacturers supplying measurements and testing"

that would be great, please do!
