WHY IS THERE SO MUCH HATE FOR THE HIGH END GEAR ON AUDIO GEAR?


It seems like when I see comments on high end gear there is a lot of negativity. I have been an audiophile for the last 20 years. Honestly, if you know how to choose gear and match gear a lot of the high end gear is just better. When it comes to price people can charge what they want for what they create. If you don’t want it. Don’t pay for it. Look if you are blessed to afford the best bear and you can get it. It can be very sonically pleasing. Then do it. Now if you are also smart and knowledgeable you can get high end sound at mid-fi prices then do it. It’s the beauty of our our hobby. To build a system that competes with the better more expensive sounding systems out there. THOUGHTS?

Plain and simple, People Suck!  Not all people though.  Miserable people just try to tear  you down so your miserable with them especially "keyboard warriors".  If you are happy with the sound of your system, and post what you have and people just tear you down "that gear is junk! you didn't spend 20K on that".  I have noticed that on these forums.  Especially in other topics like record cleaning (not Vinyl's) that drives me nuts' LP Records are not even made of Vinyl.  Results are results! (not talking about Tap water,  Windex or WD40)  Anyways that's my thought. Sometimes I wonder why i load up this forum site.  Humans ruin your hobby (yeah it's a hobby) for some it's a way of life (Music) and i do get it.  Here is my system and it blows me away on how good it sounds.

Mofi Studiodeck, Audio Technica AT540ML, Outlaw Audio RR2160MKll, Pioneer CS99-A speakers, Dahli Zensor speakers, Outlaw Audio M8 Subwoofer.

Happy Holidays Everyone! 🤗
