I wanted to weigh in on some things here....
Thanks Jstas. This, or something similar, should be added to the "Rules of Engagement" and should be required reading prior to joining the forum.Yea funny steve. K_M was taking to task today by KENcs in the closed sda thread. She still danced
Are SDAs becoming a controversial topic similar to high performance cables?Proud and loyal citizen of the Digital Domain and Solid State Country! -
So, I want to make sure I'm on the right wavelength ...... food fights are a BAD thing ?
I ..... I didn't ..... know.
Okay, let me re-calibrate the oscillator on the refram reverberator ... a little more on the horizontal azimuth .... vertical could use a little tweak, too ...
Got it. I'm now dialed directly in to station WDUB.
Good news is, it's a steady signal. Bad news is, it's kind of ... well .... steady.
Sort of repetitive. Picture's kind of distorted, too.
But in a good way !

Now you're catching on.

My last comment is that perhaps when you discover that everyone on a given forum, this one or otherwise, has a problem with you, and you alone, and that one fact is the only consistent thing tying everything together, perhaps the issue doesn't lie with them,but in some behavior you continue to repeat.
I find this comment somewhat disturbing. I am hoping it was meant in jest, although you implied you do not jest with someone you do not know well.
I find it quite hard to believe that "Everyone" on this forum has a problem with DuB, and likewise hard to believe you have spoken to literally everyone about him.
I will even agree with you, at times, some of his comments seem :out of place" or could cause some of the backlash you mention, but to literally insinuate, Every person on the forum has some issue with him?
I see the same 8-12 guys Bashing him, and a few others people, no matter what they say, then then going back and piling on over and over again, almost as if it is entertainment or a way to fight boredom.
I seem to remember someone telling me about being embarrassed by how several in the forum behave..........

In my minds eye..it would be like a big reunion or wedding where everyone would be drinking like a fish,and someone would bring up an issue that happened 20 years ago or so and then all hell would break loose!!..Hey what is that I hear?..The paddy wagons coming!...LMFAO!.. -

I will come right out and ask you. If this place is so horrible/intolerable, why not just
stay away? When I joined this place, I acted like an a$$ on several occasions, got into some stupid back-and-forths with a few people, and wondered why I bothered logging in again. But after awhile, it started to occur to me that - A. the stuff I thought I knew about was nothing compared to what a lot of people actually did (WTH is a noise floor, anyway?), and B. I could learn an awful lot by reading more and posting less. Hence my fairly low post count, even to this day.
Speaking only for myself, I am glad I stayed, and figured out what this place was all about.So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

Some just can't seem to figure it out.
Some don't want to.

Stop trying to reason with an unreasonable person. They'll never get it. The world is out to get them at every turn.
H9"Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience. Measurements can provide a measure of insight, but are no substitute for human judgment. Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it.
