| Am I right for this forum? @immatthewj someone commented “cue Stuart Smalley”. The OP wrote that the comment stung a bit. I responded that he should ignore them. Ah. Okay. I take it that the original Stuart Smiley comment had to do with positive affirmations about a ... | |
| Am I right for this forum? Another sad fact: "Garbage in/garbage out." Garbage in an accoustically treated environment is still garbage. | |
| Am I right for this forum? Considering the current state of the art, $3000 is spot on. The state of the art can be found at the Yamaha, Marantz, Denon, Polk, etc.... level. All else is hype and eye candy. How do you define state of the art? | |
| Am I right for this forum? the cost of one’s equipment is not the main criterion. Concern for sound quality is, however one strives to achieve that goal. Unfortunately, sound quality usually improves as the equipment improves, and as the equipment improves it unfortunate... | |
| No discussion about the Synergistic Pink fuse? "Do not eat The Brown Acid" was not intended to be snide. | |
| Am I right for this forum? @snilf , I am not sure what the criteria is for being an audiophile. I’ve got some equipment that, all things being relative, I don’t consider cheap. But I don’t think that, if I am an audiophile, it is my equipment that makes me one. If I do meet... | |

| Am I right for this forum? Of course you belong as much as anyone else does. I would ignore the Stuart Smalley comments. Stuart Smalley? | |
| No discussion about the Synergistic Pink fuse? Green Window Pane versus Pink Fuse? | |
| Is positive reinforcement why things are sounding better? @tonywinga , I don't think anyone is trying to say that all percieved sonic improvements are a result of confirmation bias. | |
| No discussion about the Synergistic Pink fuse? . . . Strawberry Fields Mescaline maybe. . . . | |
| No discussion about the Synergistic Pink fuse? How does the Pink Fuse compare to Purple Haze, Blue Cheer, Orange Sunshine and Purple DoubleDome? I don't think the Pink Fuse (or any other fuse) could touch any of those. | |
