ABS: What Is The Trouble With Measurements.


Found this interesting and puts some things in perspective.

I know this can be a very emotional topic here and I see it as relevant. 

Measurements do play a part in my decision process.

I go 100% by listening; I couldn't tell you the measurements of much of anything in my listening chain. That stuff has just never interested me. 

If they're useful to many people, and I know they are, great, but that does not mean they need be useful to everybody.

@hilde45 - Common sense is good! And I've got enough common sense to get regularly checked out medically. My medical conditions have nothing at all to do with my audio system, but there ya go! 

@hilde45 - that's an excellent point, except that nothing in my audio chain can kill me or anybody else if left unchecked. 

@hilde45 - Of course! I like having fun and joking around....  

And as it happens, I am a diabetic (type 2) - I don't bother with weighing out carbs in food; I can't live like that - I've been at this for over 20 years and I know what makes my blood sugar go up and avoid certain things, and I've got a FreeStyle sensor system that allows me to take a blood sugar measurement any time I want with a sensor attached instead of finger-sticks, so I always know where I'm at and what adjustments, if any, to make! 

Now THOSE measurements I DO care about! 😄
