| Why no “Break in” period? geoff,>>>>Yes, I know, that’s why I said you or anyone else can’t draw conclusions based on one test. In other words, nobody can. Your argument was a Strawman.Amazing, you still don't get it.I wasn't presenting an argument for a conc... | |
| Why no “Break in” period? geoff,In your rush to judge you have, as usual, misunderstood the point. If you ever slow down to read before firing off a rant, it would have been blazingly obvious I wasn’t taking about what conclusions I would actually draw in the scenario I ou... | |
| Why no “Break in” period? I sometimes imagine these guys with their wives, honey the coefficient of friction seems a little off tonight, but lets get Larry in here to double-blind you so I can be sure.Funny. I sometimes imagine audiophiles stopping otherwise normal parties... | |
| Why no “Break in” period? rodmanOk, so you are re-iterating what I pointed out you already said.Along with simply re-stating a disregard for known variables in human perception. (Again...would you have similar "disdain" for researchers who control for biases???? If so, you... | |
| Why no “Break in” period? rodmanNote I said "But when PEOPLE leap to objective claims..."I didn’t say you had made that explicit claim. Though millercarbon has made essentially that claim many times, continually insulting people who "can’t hear" the obvious sonic differenc... | |
| Why no “Break in” period? This is all coming down to being a great case of helicopter parenting amped up by a surfeit of hubris. You haven't indicated who you are talking too.But...Tell me: Who in this thread has been admitting "I don't know the asnwer. I haven't decided ... | |
| Why no “Break in” period? SO; the bottom line of all this discussion(according to some) would be, "It’s a waste of time, trying to upgrade your system/listening pleasure, by actually auditioning(LISTENING), since YOU’RE too inept to tell if there’s an improvement in sou... | |

| Why no “Break in” period? Those that are so adamant, regarding their beloved theories/opinions/biases(regardless of the source), while refusing to acknowledge that ONLY experimentation(the heart of the Scientific Method), provides PROOF, regarding anything discussed. Most ... | |
| Why no “Break in” period? jl35also beware of anti-expectation bias, as you may prefer to not like it so that you don't have to buy it...Yes, there are possible confounding factors one all sides too: "I don't think there will be a sonic difference between A and B, so I wo... | |
| Why no “Break in” period? @rodman99999 I suspect your post was deleted because the forum attempts to maintain a policy of encouraging conversation, rather than exchanges of insults.So a post that is essentially comprised of insult, even if it doesn’t name the individual it... | |
| Why no “Break in” period? millercarbon,Those anecdotes are hardly accounts of a controlled tests.And of course you include the usual disparagement of the other side having cloth ears, the old "you can’t hear differences because you don’t have finely tuned golden ears like ... | |
| Why no “Break in” period? millercarbonUntil I took the time to actually listen and compare.Have you ever gone a step further, and "actually listened and compared" without peeking?I have. So have many others. It can be very educational, if you are open minded enough to lear... | |
| Why no “Break in” period? millercarbon,Further beating a dead horse, driving the point home, like a stake into the vampires heart, we all know that the reviewer is perfectly capable of then writing about his actual experience of the movie IN SPITE OF EXPECTATIONS!That's... | |
| New Old Thiel CS6 Speakers--Too Harsh bigkidz,I can't make sense of your claim.What could the Oppo 105d possibly be doing to the signal, either playing media or streaming, that could cause "sharpening" of the sound? |
