don't you see it is you who is using baseless generalisations to back your viewpoint, if people are reporting improvements does that not warrant some investigation by the naysayers rather than name calling and not invented here behaviour. it says something that no one comments about PandaSharka's vile diatribe and yet anyone tweaking gets the full treatment. your arguments about tweaking effectively mean that the whole TT3.0 thread and TT3.0 methodology is worthless according to you. there were no complaints until people started tweaking priorities, which is exactly what TT3.0 does amongst other outlandish things, and yet I have seen no point by point demolition of Soundcheck;s ideas. It's obvious there are those who are so biased against any unofficial change that we shall have to agree to disagree, the tweakers will continue suggesting changes and reporting their fidings and the naysayers will continue saying enough of that sort of thing. -- SBGK ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SBGK's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=52003 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=92918 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
