ASR again? I wonder if many treads including this one were created purposely here by the ASR members. No value but to stir up the crowd for their entertainment.
I think it's worth taking a step back and asking: why is anyone triggered by the appearance of ASR discussions in the first place?
It seems to me to be a very odd reaction. Why should the letters "ASR" or discussions of that forum "stir up" anyone? That doesn't seem to be a mature reaction. Audiophiles aren't some monolith who all agree on everything and use precisely the same approach. There should be room for all sorts of approaches. If someone doesn't agree with something just add that opinion, no need to be "stirred up."
