I just was curious about something

I had run a thread saying that I didn't think that someone needed a high-end system to play rap or hip hop. I thought that kind of music would sound better on a low-fi to mid-fi system. People were saying I was racist because of these comments but what I said had nothing to do with racism. To me it was just common sense. Obviously hip hop and rap are huge Industry's and like I have said before they Not only Influence music but also movies and lifestyle. 

If high-end manufacturers thought that the people into rap or hip-hop were Interested in listening to their music on high-end gear they would market a line of gear for them. After all these high-end companies have been losing market share for years and are Interested in looking for new market share which is evidenced by the World of Mcintosh display showroom in N.Y.C.

"  I have never seen someone start so many juvenile and supposedly innocent threads. Three or more everyday it seems. Listen to more music:>)"

agreed.          

I check the ads on this site everyday just to see what is out there, but have stayed away from the forums for quite a while because of stupid threads like this and I see that they still continue.

find another hobby......

I dont think companies like Audio Research, Krell, Pass Labs, care what kind of music their equipment is playing....think they are more concerned about sales.   

If somebody wants to play rap music on their system, then let them.....why does this bother you so much ?

" No-one forces you to respond in any way, you don't like it - close your mouths and keep it that way."

that is the problem with society these days....if somebody else has an opinion and if differs from somebody else, they get all offended and say keep your opinions to yourself.        What a bunch of  BS.   

So if somebody says something to you in public and you dont agree with it, you are just going to sit there and not saying anything ?       yeah, ok....
