TW-Acustic Arm

One only has to look at reality. Reality is not an abstract nor is it fantasy.
TW-Acustic has now over 10 years in reality creating some of the finest analogue products in the world. All over this planet earth, there are hundreds and hundreds of extremely happy TW-Acustic customers all of which are thankful and respectful for the products that TW-Acustic has brought them. This is reality, just as Thomas Woschnick's back ground in electrical engineering, his years of teaching electrical engineering and the fact that over 90% of all TW products are made in house at TW-Acustics in Herne Germany. What also is reality, most analogue manufacturer and more to the point of this thread, tone arm manufactures do not in fact make their own tone arms. Most and we are talking about the biggest and most renown names in tone arm companies job out the making of their own product. Let's put this another way, most tone arm companies do not make/manufacture their own tone arms. Once again, over 90% of the TW 10.5 arm is made by TW-Acustic at TW-Acustic in Herne Germany. This is fact and or reality. Now, to those who live in their own reality or as some would say fantasy (to be kind). These people have no connection to the real world, do not create, nor have any thing tangible to offer or bring to the market place. Their subjective offerings are purely abstractions, non truths, distortions and ultimately, lies. In the delusional world one can be greater than all, have an answer for everything and reign superior against history, fact and reality. In the real world, proof is transparent, it's there for all to see and touch and ultimately decide if it is something they would care to purchase. This is reality, all the rest is purely fantasy.
On a personal note, I would like to extend my warmest and sincerest gratitude to all the hundreds of TW-Acustic owners I have had the honor and privilege to know and work with over all these years. Your are the ultimate reality and we thank you most respectfully.

Dear Adog (cave canem ??),
auctoritas audiophil, non veritas facit legem.....
or in more simple words from the bible: - cuius enim panem manduco, carmina canto....
in ultima ratio.

I feel this thread illustrates a broader phenomenon of the internet: the erosion of hypothesis and observation based peer review in favor of dramatic testimonials and name calling.

Hello everyone. Well, I've been enjoying this all immensely! Please continue; nothing is better than watching cognitive agility in the service of, well...

I knew that when people started describing the "output" of a tool (read: turntable) as one that engenders the experience of "beauty" (that it what Valin said on the TW TT, right?) that it would not be long before the priests-of-things would call forth their Krakens.

"But maybe me [sic] concept of "quality" hasn't kept up with modern day view."

My, there's a statement that deserves some deeper discussion.

You know, and its just a cursory observation on my behalf, but my German heritage is wondering to itself whether the Will-to-be-a-Big-Me that I see derives in some way from a tribal Prussian past? You know what I'm talking about, that crazy, crazy evolution of collective consciousness reflected in hierarchies - from kin to clan to village to polis to state to nation-state - that somehow has not evolved enough just yet to know where it is, or that their are levels at all. Too busy looking at "things" for answers, perhaps...

Which brings me to:

As I understand empiric method, any injunctive engaged is necessarily subservient to the obsrevations of those injunctives.

I mean, many scientific materialists who default towards looking for the determintive truth in the objects which they see (and wish to control through the formal operations of their cognitive mind, and which they believe IS the mind, if they admit "mind" exists at all...) invariably say that they only need to manipulate matter (make a tool) to know the truth of that tool's funtion - mechanic or aesthetic - in reality. Interestingly, it is also fairly well agreed that this worldview is a hallmark of a certain level of mind; one that must necessarily relegate all worldviews that would require it to examine the limitations of its default cognitive motion, and which, necessarily, produces a reflex negative reaction to all minds that threaten that materialist worldview.

Jeez, have we observed anything like that lately?

Anyway, maybe its just me, but the progression of the above appears all too symptomatic.

Just as a side-note, as a writer, I don't know any writers who actually call themselves authors. Maybe its the translation thing, but I also don't know any writers who actually think that writing a technical paper is writing, much less author-ing. Oh yes, I "authored" a few TAS reviews myself, blah, blah...

Do any of you remember me, its been a long time? Well, the moderators certainly do; I've killed too many scientific materials and they won't let me talk to them any more (you know, scientific materialists react badly when they don't get their way...).

But, in their glowing knowledge, perhaps they will once more, oh just this once, let me through...

You know, because, sometimes it is actually killing Dragons...
