WHY DO PEOPLE FEEL THE NEED TO COMMENT ON CABLES AND EQUIPMENT THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD?


I have seen loads of comments on cables and equipment that people have never heard. Why is that?

I try to only recommend stuff that I have had first hand experience with,  have owned, used, or listened to.   Nothing wrong with saying a company is good , has good products and is worth taking a listen to.   

 

 

@oddiofyl i can agree with that. Some companies have great reputations, product signatures and things that they excel at. Nothing wrong with commenting on things you have experience with. That is kind of where I’m going with this. Some people will doubt it before they hear it. If it’s doing something different that they can’t personally figure out it’s a no go. Some even shun innovation because before it wasn’t possible. These are the kinds of things I’m referring to

@jeffrey125 working with Infigo audio happened naturally. We ended up meeting as part of a show team 5 years ago. Hans started his company and realized how enthusiastic I was about audio and I have a good ear for it. I have learned from guys that put 30 to 50 years in this hobby we call audio. I always want to hear and experience different great sounds. There are many different ways a system can please you and sound great no matter what the cost is. I always look at it from a standpoint of actually experiencing the sound of the gear for yourself. Science is important but my ears are the important to me. Is it musical, low noise floor, engaging and puts a smile on my face then I’m good. That’s what we are trying to do. We even loan out cables at no cost to allow people to actually hear them
