Wharfedale Elysian 4 Incredible build quality and sound, but made in China.


When I walked into the shop my eyes were struck by these gorgeous looking beauties. Then I sat down and took a listen and said to myself they must cost $20000.-25000. When the dealer told me $10000. I was floored. What the hell, how can this be? Then he explained they’re made in China. I thought to myself, well if they’re who cares they look and sound fantastic.

You can be quite sure that if your presence here, and not your words, offends someone, then they are not worth responding to.

Now, that is an outright lie. That it comes from you makes sense.

Politics can be discussed without drawing party lines, and taking sides, and I find that you are far better at this than I am.

Again, lies (except for you recognizing your limits). Many are the times when politics has been brought up without taking sides and those with grudges literally pounce on the posts and have them removed. Happens all the time.

I always found it strange and sad that those who state such things as fact actually think everyone else sees it their way as well. It comes from living in an information bubble, an alternative universe.

Besides, as you implied, how exactly do you talk about Chinese manufactured loudspeakers without also talking about economics and politics?

That's been the fallback position of every, single negative post on Chinese made audio goods, used as an excuse to knock China's policies and not how good some of them can be, benefiting audio enthusiasts.

«There goes the thread»

 

 

Said Nonoise when two friends after a long 10 months of absence where talking together about geopolitics, few posts above...Because he did not like it... He is the political brain of audiogon it seems, judge and party...Instead of politely giving his idea, he put an ACCUSATION`"there goes this thread" Only him can talk geopolitic nobody else...

 

 

This person now stir the thread toward the worst, accusing cd318 of "liying" because he express his opinion... ...

Cd318 expressed his opinion...He did not lie...Even if you consider his opinion false, it is an opinion not a lie because he express his feeling and opinion ...You are so narrow mind that if someone see and perceive things from his perspective it must be a lie for you ... No it is his opinion thats all... Only hating mind will use the word "lie"...

"Lying" is what you just do and do again in this thread : accusing someone else of what you just did FIRST stirring it toward hate with your first words to welcome me...with your insinuation...

You are so hateful toward people thinking differently that your your sarcasm is often toxic...

Thanks to you then, your own word are now prophetic : " Here goes this thread"...

These was your INSINUATION as a welcome to me discussing with my friend, your are TOXIC...

I stayed far from your posts since my coming back... Why you did not do the same ?

Why ?

 

M.C. is no more here , i replaced him in your deranged political hating narrow mind...

You are so narrow, you even think seriously that it is impossible to think about politic without taking side...Astonishing ...That say a lot about hateful fanatical mind...

 

Sorry but i like trying to understand the two sides at war or the two sides in the political arena...For example : for sure even if we understand why the second war comes after the first and the impossible imposed huge war debts on Germany by the unjust or discutable Versailles treaty thats opinion of mine and of many people, does not implicate that i consider Hitler to be right in his vengeful direction ... Did you catch ?

For sure you will accuse me of lying... Because you had already forgot your hateful one sideness... And you will call liar someone debating your points.. I remember your M.C. attacks ... We owe M.C. apology now guess why ?

 

You can be quite sure that if your presence here, and not your words, offends someone, then they are not worth responding to.

Now, that is an outright lie. That it comes from you makes sense.

Politics can be discussed without drawing party lines, and taking sides, and I find that you are far better at this than I am.

Again, lies

This are the very same arguments you made before your departure 10 months ago and no one here was buying it then and they aren't buying it now.

All the best,
Nonoise

You dont apologize to cd318 for accusing him to be a liar ?

Instead two lines to say i am wrong...

You loose your toungue when you are put against a wall ?

Why trail you me back here when i spoke with a friend then ?

I did not trail you here myself... I let you ALONE...

By the way your two line DEFLECTIVE post cannot make us forgot that you call cd318 a liar? TWO times...

 

Remember ?

 

And you confuse my post to be an argument : your accusation against cd318 are fact...Fact are not arguments.. did you undertand the difference ?

I described your behaviour HERE SPEAKING OF CD 318 AND CALLING HIM A LIAR remember ?

You owe apology to cd318...

No one here accuse other people to be liar because speaking their mind...

Your behaviour is the same as 10 months ago...

BUT ME I LET YOU ALONE since my coming back....

Did you catch the DIFFERENCE between you and me ?

 

LET ME ALONE and keep your idiotic stalking sarcastic videos FAR FROM my post ... Go in your hole... I dont want to argue with you AGAIN...i dont like hating obsess people... I like to discuss rationally...

And let cd318 alone especially when we talk together...Especially if we talk geo politic... You are not the arbiter or judge of any thread here...

 

This are the very same arguments you made before your departure 10 months ago and no one here was buying it then and they aren’t buying it now.

All the best,
Nonoise
