The Emperor Has No Clothes!!
Joining late. The main worry I have about meaningless or disconnected praise is that it distracts or diverts me away from improving more important problems in my system. Early on, I kept reading about expensive fuses. I’m glad I turned away from...

The rogue outsider routine cannot be taken seriously.  his ecstatic announcement about baiting Audiogon members, exposing handles, and making unsupportable accusations is not the actions of an honest person with no agenda....If you think that st... 
Audio measurement: false validry or Strawman arguement.
OP, it’s not that the topic is random. It was just hard to understand a lot of what you were asking. Is this what you were asking? Are measurements taken under controlled conditions? (This phrasing replaces "absolute conditions" to indicate a mo... 
Minimum Power Needed to Drive Klipsch Cornwall IVs? - Considering Erhard_Audio Ray
I'm very curious about Erhard's stuff. Some SIT amps could be very nice, too.

@hilde45 do i need to see it ? [the rant video] I don’t know. I tried to sum up things early in this thread. There is an erratic quality to the behavior. On the one hand, making videos which explain and teach about audio -- gear, acoustics, cr... 
PURON RESOLVE creates new options for better sound
@macg19  I think the OP’s post was at worst over-hyped, or at best over-enthusiastic. There's no doubt that it was. I also agree with you that naysaying without experience is worthless. My point is simply that over-hyping a product which is a...

@curiousjim I stopped watching Mikey years ago. To many rants and not enough real information. You’ll definitely want to watch the recent one where he "baits" people on this forum, calling them out by their handle, and claiming that they post... 
Visit to Mike Lavigne's house
Somehow I'm not getting a good sense of the sound via my computer and crappy headphones, but it's fun to watch speakers playing music.  
Looking for integrated solid state amp for daily usage
Maybe Atoll IN200 or IN300.     
PURON RESOLVE creates new options for better sound
Clearly there's some skepticism here.  Too skeptical? Let's recall what the OP said: "Imagine the possibilities" "exceptional properties" "noticeable and immediate" "absolutely compliment" "customized to new levels" This product may do some goo...

No sense in feeding the haters and trolls. This is true. It’s also true that not everyone who has a criticism is a "hater" or a "troll." Unless one is a narcissist, there is a middle ground. Once someone decides to post public videos and buil... 
Stepping into streaming, finally
@knock1 I'm not trying to say anything. I've said it. Relayed my experience. Over and out.  
Belles preamplifiers -- experiences at different levels?
@koestner I'm really only interested in his SS. I have my end game tube preamp.  
Stepping into streaming, finally
@knock1 I had modded my streamer with an LPS. Should have mentioned that. Once that was done, I have not heard much difference. People spend thousands on their streamers, even with external DACs. I am putting those $$s into places in the system wh...
