I think it has at least _something_ to do with the increasing tweakism and snobbery at a large percentage of the few remaining outposts of high end retail. Whenever anyone new hears that I'm into audio, they start snickering and asking me if I own super expensive speaker cables and electrical cords. This seems significant to me. I'm a little puzzled about the demise of music claim, but my puzzlement probably doesn't mean much, since I listen mostly to jazz and baroque, which makes me an outlier. But anyway, my main point is that the two sides in this debate should be allowed to annoy each other, as long as it can be kept civil. -- totoro squeezebox 3 -> mccormack dna .5 -> audio physic tempo 4 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ totoro's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5935 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32301 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
