Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts
I agree. Only a person who is insane can spend considerable time there.   I guess I've just been diagnosed as insane ;-)   When the leader of a forum states that "I know all I have to know" to begin a discussion,   I don't know where tha...

measurements need to reflect reality. Unfortunately acoustics at this stage of scientific development is more art than science.….and being doctrinaire about using measurements when they don‘t reflect reality is very dogmatic, not scientific.   ...

No it is a cult and if you question the leader you get booted. I did.    I can't imagine why you might ever get booted from a forum.  
Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts
ASR fits a religion to the T.   No it doesn't. It really doesn't.  I have to presume you haven't really spent a lot of time on ASR to produce such a misrepresentation. Are there group dynamics on the ASR forum?  Of course!  Just as in ever... 
Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts
The head panther over at ASR sticks a pair of expensive speakers in a room with nothing but dry wall, a hard floor, a microphone and a rug and to me, that is a monumental waste, of speakers, of the time spent listening, and sadly of the lost peop... 
Thiel Owners
  I actually just ordered some Gaia 2 feet for my Thiel 2.7s. I tried the Townshend Seismic speaker stands (spring based) and didn't totally get on with them.  They did reduce bass resonance and maybe the speakers disappeared a bit more, but als... 
New MOFI speaker (Andrew Jones)
  Jay seems like a nice guy and earnest. And I do like the gear pron aspect of his channel. On the other hand, I find him over-serious, always delivering stuff like it’s almost like he was up all night contemplating how he’s going to break the i...

Well, some people prefer to benefit from information that can help them spend their money more wisely, others not so much I guess. If I were thinking I needed to spend extra money on a "high end" USB cable to ensure I get good sound, I’d really a...

  Well...you could actually point out the flaw in the reasoning that makes it so funny. But if that's too much to ask and you want to keep it to an inside joke....sorry for replying.  I thought this forum was about conversations and not just sna...

Yup. Stare on those graphs, and you will know exactly how it will sound. This way, one can “audition” and compare dozens of DACs from the comfort of their home without lifting a finger or spending any money 🙄🤦‍♂️ You say that like it's a bad th...

  invalid, Are you suggesting that those parameters are not contained within the measurements used by Amir?  How would you show that? First, there are measurements that correspond with things like the soundstage being perceived as bigger (e.g. ...

  @clustrocasual  This is a non sequitur, but I listened to the top measured products on ASR Sounds like a lot of gear!  Which gear? compared to some which measured worse, Which ones? That could help put your post in to some perspective.... 
Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers
I can't remember the NEAT model the dealer demoed for me, but they were one of the higher up models, fairly big as I recall. It was just one set of speakers, one time, so I can't denounce all NEAT speakers.  But it left me not wanting to seek the... 
Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers
As I wrote early in the thread I really like Kudos speakers.   My Kudos dealer switched to NEAT speakers - mostly I think because he had to because it was difficult being a Kudos dealer in Canada or something.  Anyway, he made a big pitch about ...

@arafiq    Not yet.  It's expensive. I probably will but haven't pulled the trigger.
