Pet audiophile peeves - name yours

This is both good reading and good venting ;)

I second the vote for ads that state something like "if you are reading this then you already know how great this is. Nothing else needs to be said."

I love reading those and then seeing that the ad has been running for 3+ weeks with no sale. Good times...

People who complain about free speech, oh yeah......... and Bruce Springsteen.

Those pretentious, self-annointed legends-in-their-own-minds who claim their ears are better than those of the rest of us. Therefore, they are in a better position to judge sonic attributes and their judgements should not be questioned.

BTW, I enjoy Bill Feil's comments and calling out of those who think they are wise. No matter what you do there is always some detractor. Keep it up, Bill.

1) "I'm rating it an 8 but it's closer to a 9"
2) "Minty"
3) "Great product. Heartbroken to have to give this up. Worked great in my system" etc. in conjunction with "Low hours, lightly used" etc.
4) People who get snarky over a typo. We're not writing a thesis, just making a quick post in a forum.

Having to turn the music down to tell the missus to put the kettle on for a cup of tea!

No such thing as free speech, well not according to my *dog and bone provider anyway.
