A true believer

I like to look at the pictures and descriptions of the various systems belonging to our fellow Audiogon members. Personally I admire the most humble system. But some times I see one that just leaves me shaking my head in amusement.

I was looking at the featured systems today and found one that consisted of three components that reproduced music. A cd player ($7700), a integrated amp. ($4000), a pair of speakers ($10,500). Total $22000. A very nice system. But, and I mean BUT, another $71,431 in cables, tweaks, stands. Things that sometimes in the tiniest increments help in the reproduction of music.

Just saying.

Not sure what Rok2id point of being here is? To save us from ourselves and to change our minds about buying something?

If you think this place is a joke then why do you post here? You have nothing to add besides you don't think amps or anything sound different?

Then you state you have lots of questions to ask, yet act like you already know the answer to everything?

Trolling seems more like the answer as you know (as I've read other posts of yours and always the same thing) that what you say is going to start an argument.

No, I never said that all like minded people only should post on the gon, but I do think experience is something that is key.

You claim that all wire sounds the the same, and that amps do as well, yet seem to lack experience with the subject so why constantly say these things like this if you don't take the time and try to listen for yourself.

I don't care what your position is, but if you don't try it for yourself, its all hear say and you really have no personal evidence beside "well so and so said so it must be true."

My friends like country music and tell me its good, yet my ears tell me otherwise. It all comes down to personal experience. If you have tried to do critical listening with a system find that you can't tell the different between it and a HTIB, well then thats your experience.

But to go on and on about how can wire make a difference and the challenge to others to prove their points yet not taking the time to try it for your own personal experience, IMO is a waste of time.
