IndyKlipschFan Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 "I am not about to dispute the religious beliefs of anyone - these are sacrosanct, and belong to the individual alone. When the same arguments are used for audio, this is a different matter. Audio (unlike religious beliefs) is based on science. Without the efforts of scientific work and studies over many years by a great many people, we would not have audio as we know it. Now, we have charlatans and thieves claiming that science is ruining audio, and that we have to get back to the basics to enable real enjoyment." Paul had a term for this.. the first one was BULL the next one was SHIT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldbuckster Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 Thought some might find this interesting. http://www.audioholics.com/news/editorials/ConsumerAudioMyths.php Let me see if I understand, those speaker pinz don't work?

Def Leper Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 I always used to be amazed at the bizarre things that some people in religous cults believed until I started getting into hi-fi. The level of hogwash, baloney, and downright criminal snake oil in audio is simply outrageous. If you ever wonder where those people went when they closed down all the state hospitals, read some articles in Audiophile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL A $50 wall receptacle as Stereophile recommended class A componment ! At one of the audio shops I heard a sales man say to a customer the speaker cables are very directional and they may not work well if direction of signal is not respected! LOL What a clown Another day I hear audio cables after break in sound better and inflate! INFLATE like the BS pumped down the ignorant customer's throat to deflate his bank account and INFLATE sales. The sales people hate me when I walk in,as I will ridicule any false sales pitch and make a circus out of some companies,respected companies.And I buy what I want and not what they want to sell.
