What means a Rhetorical question for you ?
I asked other people impressions about their own relatively low cost system and their potential satisfaction ... Some answered to my question which was not rhetorical at all and i thank them for their testimonies ...
when i wrote :
Am i deaf? Am i ignorant of high end ?
It was sarcasm directed toward people like you it seems, whom i know will not like my sincere question and will take it negatively as a claim against their own opinion about what means " high end " and his relation to price and acoustics evaluation and experience ...
It seems i was right ...😁 You came with this post i guess will come ...
Some had taken my questions as sincere one and answered rightfully and i had thank them ...It is always conforting not being alone even if your are a free spirit...
But it seems you take my questions ONLY as a provocation... You are not even wrong because my claim could be upsetting then i add : am i deaf or am i ignorant of high end ? as a sarcasm...😊 You took the bait...
If you had read me sincerely you will have read the important distinction i made between my low cost system minimal acoustic satisfaction level and threshold and maximal one ... Then there is no pretense in me , only the underlining fact i surmissed and underlined about the importance of electrical, mechanical and acoustical controls of any system/room AT ANY PRICE ...
Then take your rhetorical accusation and keep them with you in the refrigerator ...
We can enjoy relatively good audiophile experience with a relatively low cost system if we know what we do...Even sonic ectasy as i enjoy ...
Is it forbidden to ask for other people confirmation about our own experience only because it does not suit your unfounded opinion ?😊
my own opinion is grounded in basic knowledge , it is not a claim throw to the wind , a rhetorical question; it is a question asking also and mainly for what is other people experience ...
Anybody know that a high end design is better... It is a common place fact...
Not much people know that we can go toward high satisfaction levels with a relatively low cost system... This is not common place fact as the other one is ...
Then your innuendos and accusation toward my thread are rhetorical , my answers and claims are not ...
After reading the OP and the replies to the OP and then the OP’s response to the replies, I guess this was only a rhetorical question?
