Disagreements and Conflicts between Audiophiles have we lost our brotherhood and maturity?


I looked back over my posts and even my audio business dealings over the last 5 years and it seems like we have lost our ability to peacefully disagree or resolve disputes like grown men. Some of my best friends in this life are audiophiles and I enjoy the gear, the music and the brotherhood. I don’t enjoy the senseless spats. The inability to resolve conflicts and the people trying to destroy peoples business and reputations. Thoughts?

In the past I said many unpleasant things about Audiogon policies in this respect. And though my opinion did not change - the older I get the crazier I become - I stopped that because certain people and consequentially their ways of organizing, including business endeavours, are limited by their genetics and upbringing. Not their fault, but I find it upsetting and they probably don't.

So, yes, DNA lottery, this is an interesting phrase but it can also be a terrifying thought.

I met Calvinj very nice guy and very passionate on this hobby.The system He is trying to demo is one of the best sound in the show. His playlist are very talented artist. I enjoy them. Calvin thanks. I might stop by again to chat and listen .

I’m 66. Lung Cancer Survivor. I could give a phuck what anyone thinks. Believe me life is really too short to waste time on some pointless ego driven argument's about HiFi

@jayctoy it was great meeting you.  Glad you liked our system.  We received a lot of compliments today. I do this as a passion. I practice law as my profession.  But this hobby is my obsession. I tell people that our gear and cables are special. I’m glad you got to confirm that today. Thanks.
