| Thiel Owners tomthiel,Thanks! That explains why the grain pattern of the Morado I have is so similar to the Amberwood finish.But just to be clear: Do you mean the dark red color of the Morado wood is natural? I'd always presumed the speaker started out with... | |
| What Matters and What is Nonsense *dunk! Splash!* . (Here’s a towel...)geoff,Simply repeating "yes you ARE being fallacious!"....is not an argument establishing that conclusion. Your objections could be interesting if you at least showed a grasp of the distinction between repeatin... | |
| Beware the audio guru rodman99999Indeed, a lounge would have been fun to hash this out.I'd like to find some time to respond to teo_audio's claims which venture into the philosophical (and which I find in some cases, dubious). | |
| What Matters and What is Nonsense I do it professionally.LOL. Geoff, that you are so thoroughly confused about fallacies and the nature of reasoning helps explain your web site and products.Which is why you did not, and could not, produce what I asked:Show the logically fallaciou... | |
| Thiel Owners batmanfan,You possess more equanimity than I...jafant,Thanks, glad you got a kick out of my wacky journey. | |
| What Matters and What is Nonsense Geoff. For someone who so often mentions fallacies, you'd at least have a running start at being coherent if you actually looked them up and understood them. (There are valid appeals to authority, and fallacious appeals to authority - neither of... | |
| Thiel Owners Ok batmanfan. Noted. I've had interest from others too.I'm also still deciding whether to trade them in for some Devore speakers, or sell locally (both those options meaning no shipping hassle). | |
| Beware the audio guru @rodman99999 OT/Thanks. I admit I read your post pretty fast, saw the "sounds familiar" and just assumed you were referencing something else. I didn’t see your follow up post. Nonetheless I presume in either case your quoting it meant you agreed w... | |
| Have You Ever Owned QUADS? I've always wanted a pair with the bronze grills! I like that look.Jeeze, it feels like I started this thread just to make myself jealous! | |
| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers TAWW,Thanks for dropping in.Like the website! I've been there before and enjoyed your show report.I understand the reticence on Thiel speakers. They have sounded bright or dry to a lot of people.What I found early on was that Thiels can be magic... | |
| Beware the audio guru @rodman99999,So, for this theoretical reason I think that there is a complete consistency between the moral view, or the ethical aspect of religion, and scientific information. Sound familiar, to anyone?If you'd said there was consistency between... | |
| What Matters and What is Nonsense geoffkait,Are you ever going to get a fallacy correct? Your record is thus far perfect! (Hint: no claim to authority was made, no argument via appeal to authority either).rbstehno,My reply was largely tongue in cheek, but also with a point.First, ... | |
| What Matters and What is Nonsense @rbstehno Prof, not much I can say if you can’t hear a difference between a Home Depot cable and a synergistic research cable. That’s like saying you can’t hear a difference between a pioneer amp and Classe monoblocks. What can I say?I guess being... | |
| Thiel Owners ronkent,The speakers are so easy to move around on my rug (one thing nice about not using spikes) that I often fool around with different listening positions. I may settle on one for a week, or a month, or many months, then move them around. Righ... | |
| Thiel Owners I sit even closer to mine (7 to 6 1/2 feet)!Though I disagree a bit with some of the things stated on the mapleshade site. For instance the idea that sitting closer gets you better bass impact and slam. I've tended to find the opposite with almo... |
