Long ago, there was proof of collusion between said site admin and now-popular Chi-Fi audio brands (execs and designers) on various forums.
I’m glad you think so. And it’s true. If you do enough digging online, you would be very lucky to find even 1 forum post that confirmed this as fact....like I said..it’s been paved over. Think about it - asking for donations + an overabundance of audio gear from particular audio manufacturers. No 3rd party testing or validation of his measurements. But why would he need to?! He’s a genius afterall...send it to audio precision...get them to do even more measurements and we’ll see who’s right.
That forum is where you go for digital conspiracy theories ....
Like my father used to say: "nobody gives you anything for free in this world. There is always a cost."
I actually enjoy posting here on audiogon because it’s a great community. I ask a question, people answer with useful info. I try my best to reciprocate. It’s fun being on here...
