Pure Note Cerulean

Ahh, so I see that the comments by sonic_genius (Pro PURE NOTE) were to counter Physcicanimals comments (Pro Ridgestreet) and that neither one of them really have anything to contribute to how one cable compares to the other.
Even though insinuating comments were made by both to hint that one company was trying to copy what the other had done we see this statement which disclaims anything that is said.
"It does not matter what I think".
Well if that's true, why waste our time reading what has been written.
And that Richards comments were because phscicanimal probably notified him that someone was commenting on Ridgestreet.
Now where is Pure Note's comment.

Again, as many times in the past, here are the finger puppets or shills coming out of their holes to snap, bark, and support their little campaigns by slinging acusatory statements such as "Seems like the Cerulean is a departure from other Pure Note models. Some could say it's actually closer to what Ridge Street is doing. Coincidence?"

Perhaps somewhere on Audiogon, their should be a list of members that identify them for what they are so that the inexperienced member can make sound decisions based on real facts.

Am I tuned into this correctly?

Hi Hassel.

Boy, where to start. My intent here is to first be of benefit to you. If, at some point you try our cabling as a result of this and the personal email I sent you, then that is better still. If not, not to worry, I'm still confident Ridge Street will stay afloat without your business and in the midst of that, we're still enthusiasts wanting to get the most from our music enjoyment and what each of us might do to help others.

Honestly Hassel, genius said it right when the jist of what he said is you need to go on your own adventure of discovery. The reward will show up in time if it hasn't already. If you play it safe by making a decision based on others experiences, you'll most likely end up with doubt and no firm convictions of your own. Or possibly worse, you'll play the lemming. For one reason or another, this happens way to often in this hobby though it seems too few are willing to recognize or acknowledge it.

I know direct comparisons are out there but perhaps one reason you've not been able to find any ink on that comparison is that those folks are, in part, busy enjoying their music having taken certain risks and then enjoying reward for their effort. I know it's true too that...even with or without AudiogoN, some people have a life! LOL!

Most enthusiasts who understand this hobby realize that, aside from enjoying the music they care about, the play back gear is about a journey with rest stops along the way. Not about a destination where all is finally perfect forever after.

If I could be of any encouragement to you, I would say go on an adventure and have some fun. Discover things (cabling in this instance) for yourself. Take the risks involved and enjoy the rewards as well as the recovering from the possible mistakes that, nevertheless, leave you sure with no doubts and the wiser for yourself. If you don't, then it seems to me all your left with is full of care or, as you say, more careful and suspicious.

Just for a bit of insight, the only reason why the review in our Poiema! ad came to be was because I asked (which I haven't made a habit of) Mnh if he would do that for us. He was the very first (even before it was formally introduced) to purchase the Poiema! cabling and the partnering with his caliber of associated gear was exactly what I had in mind when I designed the Poiema! line. I felt that his relating his experience with these cables would provide others with another valid option in their audition and decision process for cables that they might not otherwise consider. Other than that post, I know Mnh is much to busy with his business and travels to spend his free time posting as much as perhaps some of us might like. Still, he is an active A'gon member from at least February, 2003 to present and his membership seems to primarily serve him and others well in regards to buying and selling. That he took time out to post on our behalf, I am still very grateful for especially since it's not his habit. BTW. it appears he's enjoying the journey and that since November, he's found a rest stop.

Anyway Hassel, I wish you good contentment with whatever it is you settle for.

Best Regards,
Robert

Michael, your assumptions are intellectual enough but are wrong. You ain't quit tuned in.

First, I double checked and I'm not Richard. Next, It's finally gotten through my sometimes thick skull. There are certain people who I should know better than to share my findings and opinions with. Can you guess who one person might be? PA's comment was not his to make, was inappropriate and as far as I'm concerned, he has betrayed my trust. That won't happen again. It's not his place to throw my hat into somebody's ring as he did here. I happened to see what he and then genius posted quite by chance. Not by any notification from anyone. I check the Cable forum here regularly enough as it appears you do too.

I'm sorry this is turning into whatever it's turning into with PA being the instigator. Frankly, for anyone perceiving PA as pro Ridge Street, please don't. I don't want the embarrassment.

Regards,
Robert

Ridgestreetaudio, I wanted a simple answer to a simple question (how do sound cables like) - not a lecture on life and lemmings. "genius said it right when the jist of what he said is you need to go on your own adventure of discovery. The reward will show up in time if it hasn't already. If you play it safe by making a decision based on others experiences, you'll most likely end up with doubt and no firm convictions of your own. Or possibly worse, you'll play the lemming". Sounds all very poetic. If it was true, there would be no need for these forums. I am very well capable to make up my mind. However, as there are probably hundreds of cable producers in the US alone, every single one claiming, like you and Pure Note and Syn Res and God knows who else, that his cables are the only real ones, I want to hear from real listeners before going on a journey that for me, sitting in Moscow, not in the US, is not as easy to do. I think I am not the only one here who is fed up with people who tell you everything - but not the thing you asked them to. No disrepect for you or your cables meant. As I said: They may be good.

Sorry about the Richard, Robert. I respect your statement and very well put.
I just really get irritated at some of the flatus blowing that goes on in Audiogon. As a manufacturer, I would much rather have someone post that they tried my product and thought it stunk. At least that gives credibility to their position. But, for someone to throw little stones at manufacturer's without even trying the product is why there are so many people that never find out just how wonderful some of the products made by the little guys can be.

Best of life to you,
Michael
