Did Amir Change Your Mind About Anything?

Because of your attitude and attacks on anyone that disagrees with you.

Your elitist, snobby, insulting and personal attacks on people.

Amir came in to a thread in which there were already plenty of personal attacks on him and disparagement of his forum.   He was very measured given how many other people could react.  You seem to ge ignoring the amount of ad hominem and insults sent at Amir, as if HE is the egoist insulting people.  Don't forget to look in your own backyard before casting stones, IMO.

Snake oil?  No way.  Benefits of Room EQ is proven conclusively.  There is no snake oil involved.

You don't even grasp the irony of your own gushing subjective words or spending $15K on an audio toy that ended up being useless.  The very behavior routinely ridiculed on ASR.

This is all becoming hilarious reading the contortions you perform to always arrive at the same place - everything you do is right and nobody else knows anything.

@prof HE IS THE EGOIST 

I have never claimed to know more than anyone on here, yet he has never, not one time, admitted to being wrong, or to knowing something to a lesser extent. That is by very definition bloviation. He attacks people by calling them audiophiles or subjectivists without knowing their true opinions. He continually says he answers a question and points to answers that sidestep really responding. That is gaslighting. You are obscuring the truth but omitting a lot of the stuff he does. 

Amir has good ideas some of the time. He has good insight some of the time. He is right some of the time. He is hubristic all of the time. He said this just above "The luminaries not only say what I say, if you knew them personally as I do, but do as I say." WOW cool. He knows people and calls them luminaries. Just say experts in their field. 

If I have learned one thing it's that people who claim to be one thing, and say they are the most of some form, and have the strongest ethics. Are usually the opposite. Look at Bill Cosby, Brian Williams, Ellen. They all portray one thing and do another. I am not saying Amir is a rapist. What I am saying is I do not believe him to be as ethical as he states nor do I think he operates a huge online forum out of the goodness of his nature. He does it for clout and money.

That's not the same and you know it.

You know very well that "snake oil" is a reference to products that do not do what they are claimed to do. 

That TacT Amir owned did what it claims to do: perform audible corrections to the sound.

That something breaks doesn't make it "snake oil."

That's just a disingenuous attempt at some "gotcha."

Seriously...and you guys are up Amir's butt for the style of HIS posts?

@prof Pretty sure when they said snake oil they were referring to the price tag and how it probably doesn’t do anything better and the fact that it bricked on a firmware upgrade. I’ve never even had any product do that, and if it did I could revert back to the old FW. Amir states snake oil are cables that claim to improve sound when they cost $1000. Now it's a hard pill to swallow that this eq piece works that much better than say a mini dsp or Dirac unit. Or even a Trinnov which can be had for 1/15th and 1/3 the price respectively. 

Amir saying that room eq is valid but most acoustic treatment isnt is bogus!

Let me ask you, do you think everything he says is gospel? It seems you are up his butt for different reasons.
