| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts Kota1, Thank you for the recommendation. However I have no need for the NAD. I'm very aware of DIRAC - the AVSforum especially has been a DIRAC love-fest for many years. I listen to records more than digital these days and prefer not to digitiz... | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts kota1 Yeah, I never intended to use the Bluesound NODE without my external DAC. No, never taken measurements. Not interested in doing so. It's not my thing. The Benchmark equipment has been measured by people far more knowledgeable and compete... | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts @kota1 @prof you are a long time member and I assumed too much, understood. If you look at my profile you will see a list of components I use, pics of my rig, and my room measurements. Would you be so kind to post something similar in your ... | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts kota1 I have no idea what you mean by "showcasing" anything or what "data" you are requesting. Lesson in communication: Don't make a request of someone, pretending to be politely interested, in the same post where you disparage their views as "... | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts Will all the posters with the IQ as mentioned above please post your systems with pics and measurements in your profile? Please share, it will be really interesting to see how you have applied your knowledge and experience in real life, not just ... | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts @djones51 After reading Prof comments on Audiogon and MattHooper on ASR I would say they are the same person. Seems like a well rounded intelligent fellow who understands the value of measurements but not to the exclusion of what he enjoys. One... | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts Yes I’m "MattHooper" on the ASR forum ! If anyone delved in to my posts they will see that I voice agreement with many on the ASR forum regarding the more snake-oil area of audio tweaks, and also the liabilities of a purely subjective approach, w... | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts @thyname Dude. It’s not a claim. It’s sharing own experiences. What part of “sharing experience “ don’t you understand. Claim? You guys crack me up. And “counter claim”? 😂🤦♂️🙄 I understand how human language and the implication of wha... | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts @fleschler @prof I NEVER MENTIONED THE BENCHMARK PREAMP OF ANY SORT!!! Can’t you read? Yes, I can read. I also have a memory that lasts more than one day ;-) Here's YOUR post that I was referring to: Your words: "As to... | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts May I ask: how do you find your evidence? What “persuades” you? Well, to take the example that started our conversation: fleschler is claiming Benchmark cheaped out on the parts for the Benchmark LA4, and that "better" grade parts would have m... | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts @thyname People “making claims” is typically people sharing experiences. Yes, we are making truth claims all the time. It’s how humans work. But some are greater reaching than others. fleschler is putting forth all sorts of technical claims ... | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts fleschler You’d written about the Benchmark LA4 preamp: "There is a cure for the Benchmark. Replace the computer quality, cheap-ass regulators, power and filter caps, maybe parts of the audio board, the Op-amp, etc. with audio (much more c... | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts No problem thyname. It’s pretty ironic because nobody here has voiced more criticism - or written more pushback - of some aspects of ASR than I have - on the ASR forum! I’m continually pushing back against the idea that purely subjective impress... | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts thyname I'm not "teaming up" with anyone. I am scratching my head… why don’t you participate in forums with like minded people with the same beliefs and ideology like ASR? I do. I've been a member quite a while at ASR. However, I find the d... | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts I seem to remember people here crowing about how ASR shut their thread down, while Agon wasn’t doing that. How things change ;-) Anyway, fleschler, I’m sorry but I’m going to be blunt: It’s clear that your previous comments about the quality ... |
