Please Read and express your feelings and opinions....


I noticed  that lately or maybe for the last five yrs, there is so much arguments,name calling, attacking cables , speakers , components makers and more, more of disagreement with members, even Audio dealers are being attack here...Very few know how to apologize when they are wrong.What can we do as Audiogon members to improve our communication to each other? How to give the informations, recommendation to members who need it? This is without involving Audiogon, any opinion or ideas ,  For me this is fun and place to learn in audio...thank you all

Me wrong? I’m sure you must be mistaken. I don’t even know what you’re talking about.

I hate to burst your bubble, but I find you to be one of the most sarcastic and most annoying person(s) in these forums.  You seem to pick fights with anyone and even have names for the people you argue with.  You remind me of some other guy in Washington.

Hi Guys

I hadn’t looked at this thread in a while, but when I did just now didn’t some of you miss one of Geoff’s points.

" We actually can not (rpt not) measure soundstage height or any other dimension, the sound characteristics of the recording venue, sweetness, warmth, presence, wetness, bass tautness, transparency, glare, things of that nature. As I read your manifesto, the ability to measure anything is pretty much your whole premise."

My question is, why hasn’t any of the measurement guys been able to reply to this, very true BTW, statement?

I make soundstages both in the studio and in playback so I could be a fair referee possibly. What I’m saying is, is it really useful when some of you make statements knowing if a professional in the field reads what you say he or she can easily call you out on it? Wouldn’t you guys rather learn than put yourselves in the position of loosing credibility?

Not I.

Geoff has no point. I'm not one who believes the ability to measure anything is the whole premise.It's not. Measurements can be part of the story yes, but the not the whole story. 

Maybe you missed the point? One shouldn't state the impossible and then expect to not be asked for any kind of proof to back said statement. No obligation to provide it, of course. I also believe a simple blind test can be a useful mechanism for establishing proof.
