Did Amir Change Your Mind About Anything?


It’s easy to make snide remarks like “yes- I do the opposite of what he says.”  And in some respects I agree, but if you do that, this is just going to be taken down. So I’m asking a serious question. Has ASR actually changed your opinion on anything?  For me, I would say 2 things. I am a conservatory-trained musician and I do trust my ears. But ASR has reminded me to double check my opinions on a piece of gear to make sure I’m not imagining improvements. Not to get into double blind testing, but just to keep in mind that the brain can be fooled and make doubly sure that I’m hearing what I think I’m hearing. The second is power conditioning. I went from an expensive box back to my wiremold and I really don’t think I can hear a difference. I think that now that I understand the engineering behind AC use in an audio component, I am not convinced that power conditioning affects the component output. I think. 
So please resist the urge to pile on. I think this could be a worthwhile discussion if that’s possible anymore. I hope it is.

@mahgister I didn’t say you were anti science. Why did you infer that?

 

Also of course I know here is more to it than a handful of electrical metrics.

I am saying that it’s not a competition with a winner and a loser. You can do things your way and Amir his and others will each judge the value of the science presented. That’s how science works.

I apologize mapman

 

i get your post wrong then...

I am a bit less serene and calm than you... 😊

@mahgister I didn’t say you were anti science.  Why did you infer that?

@amir_asr if you were paying attention you would have seen that I said both you and @soundfield were acting like children and I would not buy speakers where pictures arent available as arent measurements. Why would I talk against my own products? You really need to get your head out of...the sand

@mahgister no problem.   So much talk here who can properly synthesize it all?  So far I’d say nobody.  Who has the time?
