The best and worst Audiogon poster's

Gthirteen, I don't have a mic pre with phantom power yet, so I can't use any of the good mics (dang it!). I'm not a big shot like you, I only do portable battery powered stuff, with unbalanced connections. I use an AT822, so have a good chuckle on me, heh heh. When Tascam, or whoever, makes a portable DAT that can record 20 bits at 48kHz or higher in that format, that's when I'll buy one (since theirs does have phantom power). Or perhaps, they'll just make a video 8 format portable, that does one of the new digital standards...I dunno, be a while at this rate, though.

Carl,I will never be a fan of MIT.I feel there is no value $ for $ with their cable.Its not bad sounding just not worth the kind of money they want.I feel strongly about the fact that pure science does not justify the $ they or some of the others want for cable.I will though continue to post and advise people that there are some alternates at modest price points which are as good as some of the mega buck stuff.The most important factor in todays bussiness climate is Marketing.Not allways does the supperior product win.The ones who do a better job marketing can take more market share or create a oerception thier product has more value.All the power to the.Carl go to www.highend-audio.com and go to the Audio critique section.Read about cables and other things there.I think this will give you a good idea on what really going on.Its only an opinon but one i share srongly.One thing is you cant be all bad since you own a Rogue 88.I sold mine and went to the M 120.

WELL I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE AUDIOGON REUNION!

OK, so THIS is my last reply to Tm12. There is no such thing as "pure science", and you would certainly NOT be an arbiter of it, if it existed. MIT's products represent the best value in audio cables today (mostly for solid state, but not solely), and the vast majority of us know this already. I suspect that your judgement is blinded by an awe of my obvious righteousness on this particular subject, you don't know how to express it correctly, and so you just continue to spout nonsense.....good day to you, anyhow.

I'd like to thank those above who mentioned I made some "good posts"-- I respect each of you too. I choose not to not list specific indviduals because, as Trelja noted, my memory is short too, and there are so many good posts that I'm sure I'd miss many. As to "bad" posters-- anyone that berates or denigrates another person for no good reason AND-- because you don't like their equipment choice(s) is NOT a good reason to "blast" someone IMHO. Cheers.
