ralph and jh: this discussion is kind of interesting, but seriously - do you actually have evidence to support your claims about the intellect of folks who spend a lot of money on hi-fi? If you do, I'd love to see the statistics?
As to wether there are differences or not. We are some that, from experience, think there is, and some do not. These are fact and none of us are going to become converts simply by reading that the other party claims otherwise. So... How do we get on with this discussion? I suggest we all agree to visit our local dealers [or borrow some gear] and have a listen to some budget vs. very expensive setups, and then report back here starting with a summary of setup, what happened, etc. Could be interesting. Maybe we still won't reach the same conclusions, but its a way of making the discussion relevant instead of resorting to claims of stupidity of other people - besides any references to 3rd party experiences in these matters seldomly contributes constructively to these discissions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bhaagensen's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7418 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96407 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
