Yes, I believe netchord has used essentially every typical audiophile response (as is his right since this is a public forum). He's used: 1. I'm experienced in XXXX therefore I have knowledge you may not have. 2. I've listened to your equipment before and personally find it terrible (therefore implying that if I don't find it terrible, either the quality of my listening ability or equipment is questionable) 3. I know what I hear (see, feel, etc.) 4. I will ignore/evade all requests regarding any rigorous testing of what I hear (as it is simply not possible that I am personally affected by known biases that rigorous tests have identified in similar contexts, even with experts within their own fields of expertise) 5. I'll occasionally throw in a few well placed curse words to highlight my indignation in even having to explain how silly all these alternative explanations are.... I'm sure I've missed a few. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98630 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
