| Do you think audiophiles are the most gullible hobbyists Uh, I'm pretty sure I'm not very good at obfuscation, either. I can't even pronounce it. | |
| Do you think audiophiles are the most gullible hobbyists I’m not particularly good at making watches or milking cows so I guess as far as becoming a Swiss citizen goes I’m out. | |
| Do you think audiophiles are the most gullible hobbyists "I saw a show recently on T.V. That said the happiest country is Denmark. They gave the reasons as free health care, free education, giving woman paid maturnity leave and not a big disparity in Income levels between different professions. They sai... | |
| Do you think audiophiles are the most gullible hobbyists "Examples of the cuckoo clock, beyond their facade, can be wonderful examples of precision engineering."Yeah, right. And Switzerland uses a cuckoo clock for its National Time Standard. | |
| Do you think audiophiles are the most gullible hobbyists I'm getting a very bad feeling. By the way it should probably be pointed out that the primary things the Swiss have given mankind is the cuckoo clock and a safe place for crooks to hide their money. | |

| Suspensions on turntable...really effective? It would be a good idea to isolate both the subwoofer and the turntable and all components really. The attenuation of passive iso systems is around 6 dB per octave. But you’re right, the subwoofer’s lowest frequency will be almost entirely attenua... | |
| Suspensions on turntable...really effective? The subwoofer puts out what maybe 20Hz if you’re lucky. So the iso system doesn’t actually have to be too heroic for subwoofers. The resonant frequency of the iso system for the sub would only have to be what about 8 or 10 Hz to be effective at 20... | |

| Do you think audiophiles are the most gullible hobbyists As to what thing seems preposterous, too preposterous to ever consider, I suspect it all depends on the thing being considered and the person doing the considering. There are a lot of things in audio that were once considered absurd or preposterou... |
