My apology, I was making a joke by saying 50%, as that is my issue with OPUS, that he plays with numbers. I thought that those interested would read the thread and see that it was a joke. Sometimes these things do not translate well, and I am not a good communicator of humor, apparently.
Funny enough, the 71% was calculated before bajawisconsin chimed in; he makes it three out of eight that had issues or 62% in favor. 38% with issues. Weak praise, at best.
Three of us in that thread had issues with the JICO SAS stylus. Myself, vanmetterannie and bajawisconsin. As I said, this speaks to sample-to-sample variation in my mind, but of course there are other possible answers. I have been called deaf more than once recently.
If one looks at reviews of virtually any audio product on the internet the majority are almost always positive. I believe that is because those giving their opinion are financially invested in the product at hand. Additionally, consumers generally do not have a large sample of competeing products at their disposal. It's easy to "like" something that we are financially invested in, and it's another to say that it leads it's price class and that is what many people are looking for, purchase guidance. As I point out in the thread, if popularity is the metric that we are using to judge audio products, we would all own Bose.
