Another Audiophile obituary

I just saw this today. Peter wasn't popular with many audiophiles due to his position and attitude. I did subscribe to his magazine for awhile though. Joe

RIP Peter. A voice of reason amongst an audio journalism community that has become mostly hype.

>>>>Actually, unless I miss my guess, he wasn’t a voice of reason, he was just an unapologetic naysayer.

There is is a strong anti-objectivist sentiment reflected on these forums. Objectivists must be either deaf or with an agenda while subjectivists hear angels from their fuses or speaker wires. It is distasteful to me that an objectivist is vilified upon his passing.

>>>>Huh? He was always vilified by real audiophiles when he was alive. Nothing has changed. You’re just trying to rewrite history. He wasn’t an objectivist or a real skeptic or audio critic. He was simply a naysayer and pseudo skeptic. If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck it’s a duck. What you do in life lives after you.
