| What makes the biggest difference in sound quality? I have as well...using a wealth of information synthesized over the years and well documented from various sources. I agree based on experience its fruitless to focus on gear alone without first a focus on integrating the gear into the room pr... | |
| Chi-Fi in the Time of Self-Righteous Indignation. Political correctness is not civility. It is a ploy to stifle dialogue, and a means to control thought. @yuviarora we agree they are not the same. I stated it above initially. One must decide which is which and not allow disdain for Politica... | |
| Chi-Fi in the Time of Self-Righteous Indignation. Last comment on this: Being civil is an ethical thing. Should not be politicized. Run the other way from anyone who justifies not being civil, regardless of political affiliation. If you can't turn a cold shoulder for some reason, then defend you... | |
| Chi-Fi in the Time of Self-Righteous Indignation. So what? Your logic is defective. Two wrongs don't make a right. | |
| Chi-Fi in the Time of Self-Righteous Indignation. More likely in this case any Chinese people still remaining here have jumped ship or are considering doing so. Derogatory terms tend to work that way. Bad for business too. | |
| Chi-Fi in the Time of Self-Righteous Indignation. I don’t see @nonoise or many others objecting to either the concept or practice of being civil to others. That says a lot. Being spirited and vocal in one’s beliefs is a good thing. You can’t control others, only try and set a good example. Somet... | |
| What makes the biggest difference in sound quality? I would very much like to understand the cited Helmholtz method as it applies to pro or even just home audio in order to be able to assess it and maybe even attempt it if viable but google search turns up nothing. So how does one practically appl... | |
| Chi-Fi in the Time of Self-Righteous Indignation. @jl1ny What you or I or anyone might find offensive has nothing to do with what others do. How about we all just treat each other civilly? That’s part of being "civilized" as opposed to the alternative. civil [ˈsiv(ə)l] ADJECTIVE rela... | |
| Chi-Fi in the Time of Self-Righteous Indignation. Chi-fi is used as a derogatory term and should not be part of civil discourse. It is insulting to anyone of Chinese heritage, which includes mostly good and many very talented people. It’s that simple. Do not use this word unless that is your inte... | |
| Chi-Fi in the Time of Self-Righteous Indignation. International trade is pretty much the ONLY thing that can bring various countries around the world together. Everyone should support that! | |
| Chi-Fi in the Time of Self-Righteous Indignation. Yes personally I prefer to buy US but have no qualms about buying any product from anywhere if it makes sense to do it, often for value reasons. Check out my system(s). My hifi stuff is mostly from US companies. I’m sure parts and other elements ... | |
| Chi-Fi in the Time of Self-Righteous Indignation. Political correctness and civil behavior towards others are two different things. Hopefully people do not use political correctness as an excuse to not be civil. | |
| Chi-Fi in the Time of Self-Righteous Indignation. I wouldn't worry about it specifically. Global trade is the only thing that helps keep this world together. Better to get with the times and ride the wave rather than build more barriers. If you don't like China or any other country for whatev... | |
| Heard it live….and now at home It was a nice surprise to learn the concert was going to be released on CD. The sound at the concert was really good and the recording is very good as well. The Anthem is a fairly new venue and Very nice in all regards. Highly recommended! | |
| Big Below 15k used that can play loud as heck Ohm F5 with built in subs would do it and you could go DBA with current subs or sell to help finance. |
