The Emperor Has No Clothes!!


Read a post the other day where someone characterized a server/streamer as “sweet and tube-like sounding”.  It read like a parody.  Am thinking of starting a company based on tube rectified power supply for network switch.  Crowd funding?

@mdalton I am in agreement with you here.  I think it is proper advice , especially to less experienced readers, to point out the over-the-top praising that some posters offer regarding the life changing returns on their equipment.  

Others have suggested that something is amiss with you or your equipment if you don't agree with them.  We all know the type: very superior with respect to their own opinions.  Where is the humility? 

Regarding cars, I have a 2004 Infiniti G-35 that I enjoy zipping around in.  I do have a different take regarding car washing.  I prefer to not remove the protective layer of road film.  This is much more protective than a coat of wax. You end up with a repellent coating made up of the typical, primarily oil based road droppings.  I don't worry about the salt treatment that we contend with here in the winter, it can't penetrate to the paint.  Were I to wash this protectant away, I could see the rust forming.  This is absolutely an astounding auto care revelation.  Forget wax, polish, Armor All, undercoating, etc.  Not in the same class.  I've been doing this for years, so I am very, very qualified to make this determination.

If you don't agree with me, you are obviously unintelligent, inexperienced, and so insecure that you have to prop yourself up with shinyness.  Plus you have too much money to appreciate my invaluable, lower class redneck opinion.

I've been into high performance cars and audio since the 60s, and can say without hesitation that after I wash a car it goes faster. Dirt particle drag? I suppose...Also note that I never wash my audio gear...a little dusting...damp cloth to remove a smudge...

Last time I checked, border patrol uses a tube in their power supply on dacs, and it sounds more "analog" or "tube like" to my ears. It’s one of the better dacs I’ve heard that appeals to my taste.

I drive a 2013 Toyota Yaris, I bought it new and it now has 230K miles on it. I hope this doesn't harm my audiophile cred.
