Minus the religious proselytizing of AA. For some I suppose it could be a similar detox from being marinated in audiophile myths ;-)
No religion, you just have to believe in a higher power than yourself...maybe like Amir?
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?

@henry99 , One thing I have learned in just a few short days, is that one thing @prof is not, is incoherent or rambling. You may not understand him, but that is a fault of you, not him.
Do you think maybe you are being a bit dramatic? And if you are a believer, perhaps take heed of not bearing false witness. Then again, we could look at the apt Timothy 4:3, "For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear."

He has been here for a while. 19 different usernames. I learned that @crymeanaudioriver is full of the crapola!
