Why don’t we call it a draw and go out for ice cream...🍧
Great suggestion, and more enjoyable.
- what flavor?
- what make?
- how much?
- what kind of dish?
- cold or hot spoon to dish it out?
- toppings?
Just saying....
Haha, the argument would never end. 😅
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 My first turntable was a Dual 1209 and a 1960s tube Kenwood receiver! I was 13 years old. I had tubes with cages to protect against my young daughter (vice versa). My last 31 years, I've had a dedicated pair listening rooms with closed doors because for 24 years I have used high voltage uncaged tube amps with top caps (.6P7S - 6BG6 G Beam Tetrode power tubes). Only my wife and I turn the amps on/off and the cats who occasionally enter with us ignore the equipment (sleep in front of the speakers). @kota1 I have gone to revival movie theaters to view 30s and 40s movies from safety prints where I experienced close to what audiences saw when they were new. I have two 4K 75" Sony LCD TVs which are were top models 3 and 5 years ago and are quite nice still. Too bad I haven't combined the audio and video rooms together (I use a Yamaha CR620 receivers hooked up to a pair of MB Quart 980S and ADS L620s). Eventually, I will replace the MB Quart with Legacy Signature IIIs. |
@crymeanaudioriver Note fellow Audiogon posters, this member signed up to annoy us on this forum, much like the lectures from Amir. He is a regular on ASR. Try to ignore him (unlike ASR where trying to ignore someone who is not a follower of all things Amir gets you defamed and booted). |
