| Wharfedale Elysian 4 Incredible build quality and sound, but made in China. This are the very same arguments you made before your departure 10 months ago and no one here was buying it then and they aren't buying it now. All the best, Nonoise | |
| Wharfedale Elysian 4 Incredible build quality and sound, but made in China. You can be quite sure that if your presence here, and not your words, offends someone, then they are not worth responding to. Now, that is an outright lie. That it comes from you makes sense. Politics can be discussed without drawing party li... | |
| Is there a ceiling limit on what you are willing to pay for an audio component? In hindsight and with my last few purchases, yes. | |
| Why are speaker stands so expensive?! The speaker stands made for my monitors cost $300 and they're a bargain. Had to assemble them myself but the fit 'n finish was 1st rate. The stands for my JBL 4319s went for 25% off and that was a counter offer to my asking for 10% off. I ended ... | |

| Wharfedale Elysian 4 Incredible build quality and sound, but made in China. As your usual want, you single me out for your long standing animus against me and ignore the other insults directed at you earlier for your long winded posts. You were so polite in answering them. How gentlemanly. My post was much less offensive ... | |
| Do my ears deceive me?? My monitor speakers cost around $2500 and their bigger brothers (slightly bigger than my old JBLs) go for around $4500. The maker of these speakers used to be the head designer at Dynaudio and Focal-JMLab. Most of their successful models were desi... | |
| Wharfedale Elysian 4 Incredible build quality and sound, but made in China. You haven't changed one bit. Before your comeback, people were praising your evenhanded, grown up and thoughtful commentary and almost elevated you to the level of a saint. Some of us countered saying you were no better informed, polite or non-pol... | |
| Wharfedale Elysian 4 Incredible build quality and sound, but made in China. There goes this thread..... | |
| Do my ears deceive me?? Not only did I have the Marantz's tone controls to fiddle with, I also had the pots on my JBLs to do the same with. The problem is, they were both too broad in scope and while it did cure the edge and bite, it was also like wrapping my tweeters an... | |
| Do my ears deceive me?? No manufacturer — and I mean ZERO— uses any EQ in their audio systems at high-end audio shows. Why do you think that is? If Magico, Wilson, Joseph Audio, Rockport, Vandersteen, Audio Research, etc. don’t ever use EQ at shows that they pay a boatl... | |
| Can/Is AI Used To Post Threads on Audigon? Twitter is pretty close to being run by AI considering the fool who's running it. All the best, Nonoise | |
| So many YouTube clips to evaluate sound quality. Why??? With all the hoopla about streaming, why the heck would anyone listen to YouTube videos thru some tiny set of built in computer speakers and think that's all there is to it? All the best, Nonoise | |
| Can/Is AI Used To Post Threads on Audigon? @vonhelmholtz Funny you should mention the "human psyche" as Forbidden Planet came out in 1956, the same year Freud made the cover of Time Magazine. Parallels abound. He made quite the impression. 😄 All the best, Nonoise | |
| Can/Is AI Used To Post Threads on Audigon? AI is only as good as the people who write the code for it. There needs to be a Asimov like set of laws written that precludes AI from harming humans in any manner like his: The first law is that a robot shall not harm a human, or by inaction al... |
