I gre out of Be Tweeters


I was at a bar the other day (well probably yesterday .... hahahah)


In any event, I was discussing how much my taste in beer has changed. I started with lagers, especially Mexican brands. Then I became a Guiness snob, and then I went over to IPAs and Belgian Abbey-style ales. Now while I can tolerate a lager, I can't stand a Belgian white at all. 


What makes me think of this here is tweeters. There was a short period of time when I thought I loved Be tweeters. I've grown completely out of them. I don't particularly like the "affordable" diamond tweeters either. I'm done.


What about you? Is there a technology you liked  earlier in this hobby and now have turned completely against?

I never cared for porters until one day in Winthrop tried their Bulls Tooth Porter. Freaking amazing. Turned friends onto it, they all loved it too. Even people who never liked dark beer. And this was VERY dark beer! But awesome!

Spent pretty much my whole life looking down on lagers. Anything light, really. Even as a teen, never cared for em. Till one day, Scuttlebutt Trippel Seven. Pretty darn light, yet somehow rich and creamy and full-bodied. Wish the Bulls Tooth was still around but at least we still have the Trippel Seven.

Not sure what this is good for other than to expend a few more milliwatts and eat up a few more bits on the interwebs, but what you said about technology, what you're talking about is the difference between technology or design and implementation, the particular details of how the technology or design is brought to fruition.

Rear engine technology for example is such an awful approach no one does it any more. Except Porsche, who somehow has managed to make the worst design into the best car in the world, a fact they have proven again and again for an incredible 60 years now.
