Good read: why comparing specifications is pointless


 

“ … Bitrates, sampling rates, bit sizes, wattages, amplifier classes…. as an audio enthusiast, there are countless specifications to compare. But it is – virtually – all meaningless. Why?

Well put, @jerryg123 

Mirrors what I said in the last post that our friend Amir attempted to hijack. He's pandering to people pretending to be audiophiles who are desperate to think their inexpensive gear is "just as good" when it's obvious they simply cannot afford it. I don't have a dog in this fight (I said what I felt in the last thread), but it just makes me shake my head.

Watching this go back and forth reminds me of 2 kids in the backseat on a road trip. "He's touching me!" "He touched me first!" "Did not!" "Did too!"

Perhaps if we ignore him, he'll go back to his little pond where he can continue to get his ego stroked by his audiophile-wannabe followers, while the rest of us get on with our lives.

This will be my last post to you.

You are acting like a petulant child. Go away, I'm not buying your BS, and no how many times you feel the need to get the last word, I don’t agree with you.

I think you’d be better served if you packed your carnival up and moved on to the next forum.
