Would "Sgt. Pepper's" be a better album if.....

George, Pathological skepticism, which we see rear its ugly head from time to time, especially on this particular fuse thread, but also many others, was addressed thoroughly in Zen and the Art of Debunkery. Perhaps you missed it. The author wrote,...

Geez, AL, you still trying to snow us with that, "we’re electronics and digital designers so we must be right" argument? You guys are too much. That’s the most obvious illogical argument there is - ye olde Appeal to Authority. Besides, if anyone h...

The article is two years old almost to the day but still as fresh as yesterday’s garbage. Pretty typical in most respects, hits all the usual audiophile soft spots....oh, my gosh, there’s even the perfunctory bit on Peter Belt (RIP), UK’s favorite...

Is high end audio to snooty for its own good?

Note to self: all of this rumpus points out and highlights the fact (see, there’s a fact!) that there is a HUGE chasm between the locals and the other audiophiles living contentedly in the 1990s and the advanced audiophiles who haven’t given up. A...
