Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers
  I have to say I’m still disappointed by the choice of finish on the o/baby. I don’t think I could stare at that finish all the time in my listening room - too bright, too bland. I prefer darker wood with a strong sense of grain. And I presume a... 
Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers
@rsf507    Your frustration and hesitation are understandable. I've been wondering if I'd actually be able to send my Perspectives for the upgrade due to the radio silence. Fortunately the local Joseph Audio importer finally got through and go... 
Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers
@ghasley  Thanks! I saw that posted on SH forums and to repeat what I wrote there: Dang. Trying to keep my resolve in putting my saved audio funds to upgrading my Joseph Perspectives rather than buying yet another speaker. My resolve didn't nee... 
Nearly all manufacturers do not advertise/exhibit their product measurements? Why?
Now that you listed your creds I feel even better we are beating you at the system/FR measurement throw down- Audiogon Forum 1- ASR 0 You can have a rematch anytime, with those creds you should do much better in the rematch, just answer the be...

I do NOT refuse to accept the validity of blind testing equipment, cables or tweaks.    That's good. However, I am unable to do blind testing.  So, I rely on my hearing.  Ok, that's fine.  As I've argued, most of us don't have the time or ...

I don't use this term lightly because it's often tossed around too recklessly. But jerryg123 is clearly trolling.   Again...what people get out of being trolls is beyond me, it's a very odd way to spend one's time, but...almost every forum is inf...

@fleschler    My hearing is fine. Ok, so that makes two of us.   Sighted tests are verboten? They can only be guesses and wrong. Like rolling dice? Must have measurements! Must be ABX blind testing! Sounds as ridiculous as it is. So you ...

@fleschler   Are you deaf (or rather taste depleted that you can’t tell salt from sugar)? I believe you have lobbed that insult more than once. Can you tell me specifically what I wrote that leads you to think I have poor hearing? My disce...

@jerryg123  Figured. People here are smarter than you think ;-)

@prof You are such an expert in your opinion denying the plausibility that I hear great differences and can make an informed opinion of my own. No, precisely the opposite. I recognize my limitations as NOT being an expert. That’s why I value e...

Well @jerryg123 Let’s sum things up. You claimed to Amir: Now what I do know about you is you have never posted your system or listening room. I then suggested you had been on the very threads in which Amir’s system had been posted. Your r...

@jerryg123  Ok, so I am wrong that you ever participated in, or read the other recent threads on ASR?  (In which Amir appeared, and in which his system was posted)? Please be clear on that if I was wrong. In either case, you were the one who wr...

My "anecdotes" are based on my hearing abilities. You continually ignore that you are not superhuman, and that your "hearing abilities" are fallible. You really can imagine hearing differences. You really, really can! No amount of "expertise" ...

  @jerryg123 Now what I do know about you is you have never posted your system or listening room.   I seem to remember you posting on the very thread in which Amir’s system, with measurements, was indeed posted. Here is is again:   ...

@fleschler    Amir is so full of it... I tried six digital cables and they all sounded very different. Not just to me, but to five other listeners, two golden ear friends. My wife who is not an audiophile but has a very keen sense of sound gave...
