here you cut my post from his thread context: What is the most underestimated fact in audio ?
Then you arrange the post truncating it from his context to make it as if i had disparaged everybody instead of recommending to pay attention to the grounding process : grounding each piece of gear rightfully...
Don’t know what you are talking about. I copied from this thread -How large (or small) is the audiophile market?. Here it is in its entirety:
The only real audiophiles i knew are dead...
They played with the gear pieces never were really concerned and never studied acoustics...
I am the only real audiophile i knew now, i used a dedicated room, and i studied how to makes it holographic with basic gear because i could not enter the upgrades race. My budget lack was my luck but i did not knew at the times....
I succeeded but it takes me 2 years full time to understand how to do it at no cost...
Most people called audiophiles here buy gear pieces without end on a race to upgrade the sound...
Gear matter for sure...
But acoustics matter way more than the choice between relatively good basic pieces of gear...
Most dont want to know this simple truth, because they dont have a room dedicated only to audio, they dont have the time to study acoustics... And a dedicated acoustics room done by a pro cost more than a high end system anyway...
What is an audiophile?
It is a fool with money who buy gear pieces one after the other or a fool with no money ready to have fun in a dedicated room whose hobby is acoustics (me)...
There is rare people with unlimited budget spending money on room and gear....
They dont buy quartz to ground their gear homemade.... They bought costlier product...
