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?

organize. The easy stuff is shareholder resolutions, strikes, boycotts. The hard part is revolution, which won’t happen for the foreseeable future because the working classes in the U.S. seem more inclined towards fascism at the moment and the Democratic Party are not getting them back anytime soon because it thinks there is no problem that can’t be solved by throwing money at it. I see that what is more likely is another Jan 6 insurrection that succeeds.

This is supposed to be an audio forum 😬 so hey I’m chillin 😎 after this 😆!

Systems are changed all the time, either at the ballot box, through grassroots organizing with thousands of others, through catastrophe ...

No, they're not. Effecting real change in systems is rare. Yes, it happens, but incremental change is much more common.

... or through revolution,…you know, like that Thing that we celebrate every July 4.

Dreamers like you tried that kind of change on Jan. 6. We saw how that worked out.

@cleeds

Of the 3,000 books in my library, I have several shelves devoted to history books that unequivocally dispute your assertions about the frequency of change.

As for your other comment about 1/6, you clearly did not cognitively grasp what I said.

As for dreaming, I fought a case to the U.S. Supreme Court and got Scalia to write an 8-1 opinion in my favor. I’m likely the only dialectical materialist to get Scalia to agree with him…twice! Can’t do that without first, dreaming, second, designing, third planning, fourth executing like hell.

I changed constitutional law by getting The Supremes to overthrow 12 cases that came before me that went the other way

OK, outa here before the moderator pulls down what is otherwise a normal thread.

Are you the one who brings the green been casserole to the annual Scalia Thanksgiving feast every year?

We need on earth a change of the scale there was in the American revolution against the British...

Ask the Europeans with a brain if they appreciate the American empire way to sell them gas and piloting them through the corrupted European union ...

Effective real change in systems are necessary at some point , like earthquake at some threshold point ... We are there , all corporate big powers are not only corrupted to the bones they destruct Earth, nature, and even science ...

Ask doctor Bill Gates, Ask Ursula Von der Leyen among other monsters with or without brain ....And ask Robert Kennedy why the most important event in political history the murder of the two Kennedys is not under a serious inquiry after 72 years. like murders of a president in a banana republic  ...All the others unanswered questions are related in a way or in another to this elephant in the room ...Oliver Stone spoke well of this in a popular easy to understand way...

US is a nation in denial ... As was the soviet for other reasons ... Lies are the rule in the two cases ... Calling one freedom against evil is a slogan invented by CIA agent ...
