What is a logical fallacy about appealing to Authority?

If the authority is in fact experts, as it would seem in this case, then the deduction in fact has a greater chance of being true.

Gk you either have a lot of cohunes or are just oblivious. You are the king of logical fallacies. Its a logical fallacy for you to accuse that of some of the most credible folks around.  Clearly the only authority in your world is you.  And you appeal to yourself everyday.

Dave:
I've also owned the Ayre K-1xe pre with internal phono for a few years. Enjoyed it a lot.  Audition the KX-5 Twenty if you can because it's stellar.

Allan:
I have four Black fuses on order.  One for my BHK Preamp (which replaced my Pass XP-20), one for my PS Audio Directstream DAC, and 2 for my BHK 250 amp.  I won't replace the 4 rail fuses on the amp because it's too expensive, and I don't think that other owners have gone this route. I may get a 5th fuse for my Pass XP-15 phono if things work out.

It might be true but it also might not be true. That’s the point. Pointing to one’s credentials doesn’t automatically win arguments. If two experts disagree how do you decide who is right? Do you really think all experts in a given field, say electronics design, agree with each other on every issue? That’s not logical, Captain. Not to mention it’s almost certainly true that many electronics designers are actually even not aware of the directionality of wire controversy or aftermarket fuses or arrows on (unshielded) interconnects.

Is this going to be like a multiple choice?

Really? How so, Stringbean? Not saying I don’t like being called king. But I am king of logical fallacies and king of logical truths.

Credibility is subjective, grasshopper. If you accept what some folks say without question I say, good for you!

Hi Paul,

I dare not. My wife and I are raising a Grandson (unexpectedly) and I am grateful to be blessed with the equipment that I already own, yet even more so to be able to make a positive impact on the life of this fine young man.

Best to you Paul,
Dave
