Talk but not walk?
Anyway...I have indeed been a dog-on-a-bone in this thread, I certainly admit that.However, the whole thing really touches issues I find of interest and importance - the role of empiricism, science and skepticism in high end audio, and the approac...

Why don’t you talk to Michael about music or his product or tuning.I did. Remember?I asked honest questions that he refused to answer.As I said: I’m not trying to get you to change your opinion of the Michael you know. He may be a great fellow. Bu... 
Talk but not walk?
Prof, when Michael is up on a forum somewhere in the home hobby or professional a post is made on TuneLand and his facebook page. No sirens needed. Well, that is essentially a siren of the type I was thinking - it seemed that somehow Tuneland peop... 
Talk but not walk?
BTW, anyone notice there has been an influx in the thread of MG acolytes to castigate nay-sayers?It gives the feeling a siren call went out at some point, does it not? 
Talk but not walk?
jf47t,It’s odd to read this thread that is mostly about Michael’s character instead of the OP. You seem to have missed that Michael’s OP was an attack on the character of others - calling them out as "fakes." (And he continued to imply people on t...

geoff,It’s one thing to look for a way out when your bluff has been called.But to do it on the pretence that someone is calling you names? Geoffkait...complaining about anyone name-calling?That is a priceless ploy coming from you. I admire the chu... 
Talk but not walk?
geoff,I may sometimes comment on someone's posting style - especially if they are being disingenuous.  But I *do not* use comments on someone’s posting style to *avoid* people’s questions or arguments. I directly address them (as I did yet again w...

So geoff, you are avoiding the point...again.The point being: I do not fit the definition of "pseudo-skeptic" that you posted.It's obvious to anyone who would read it. Can you dredge up the teeniest bit of integrity to acknowledge this?

uberwaltz,Sounds great!But please remember: I will not take your opinion on this movie as reliable unless you your assessment was made in the context of proper methodological controls, including a control group.Otherwise, have fun! :-) 
Talk but not walk?
thecarpathian,As you can see Geoff’s attempt to critique that portion of my post (mentioning "credentials") is the usual attempt to avoid the actual substance of the point made. He just ignores the point that an engineer wouldn’t typically evade a... 
Talk but not walk?
So geoff’s hand was finally forced to show his"pseudo skeptic" card that he kept threatening me and others with - throwing around that label as if it suited, or showed any problem with, my arguments.Of course, if anyone reads the "definition" of p...

Hello jf47t,It’s nice to hear you are really happy with MG speakers. I’d love to hear a pair as they sound really interesting.My take on this thread is that there was a real engineer on this forum and some of you did everything in your power to ch... 
Thiel Owners
ronkent, jafant,I've long been familiar with REL and their approach.  I've had REL subs in my home before.  But I want to try doing subs using a crossover, which have some advantages if done right to the REL system. 
Talk but not walk?
Does anyone know what "pseudo skeptic" means?Only geoff knows for sure, but you can bet you can feed it to horses. ;[) 
Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers
Small update:I auditioned some Wilson Benesch speakers. It was an interesting experience.That’s a brand that has intrigued me - never heard them but have read some raves. Turns out a local dealer sells the brand so I dropped in and he had the smal...
