| Audiophile demographics? I am shocked that they separate women into separate chess tournaments @cd318. So @audio2design, are you saying the average IQ of a man is higher, but the median is higher for a woman? Interesting.... Thanks for the facts, although some of them wo... | |
| Audiophile demographics? @dave_b - are you trolling for a date? Why do you say something so general demographically? Maybe that's your experience or in your family, or whatever. Then you compound the comment by saying the "better" ones are smarter! As they say say on ESPN... | |
| Audiophile demographics? I wouldn't have used the word polarizing Tony. You're doing market analysis. The demographics exist. | |
| Audiophile demographics? @tony1954 - of course food tastes better when visual senses are not in use. The other senses become more keen. Or lack of capabilities lead people (or animals) to adapt in other ways. Ever see a 3 legged dog? Amazing how they function.Much is spen... | |
| Audiophile demographics? hilde45 - I don't think your food analogy holds much weight, unless the taster is blind. How appetizing a food looks can make you think it will taste better, which actually makes it so.I am by no means a foodie, but I like what I like and am picky... | |

| Audiophile demographics? I think it is just that they are uncomfortable or disinterested (many of them) with the technology complexity and demo areas. Some of the high end rooms look like physics labs. Less women go into STEM. If you told an audiophile demographic survey,... | |
| turntable recommendations Enjoy! Obviously the best thing would have been to compare both of them in your home with the same cartridge, which sometimes is hard to do. As long as you have a reputable brand (I've heard a little about Feikert and it is carried by the most kn... | |
| Constant noisy tubes maybe go solid state? Yeah, like solid state | |
| Constant noisy tubes maybe go solid state? Hey @aj523 - sounds like you have a case of upgradeitis. Summer of 2020 is only 2 1/2 months ago! And I saw you changed cartridges. I guess that makes sense that you reevaluated your phono stage. Tubes are noisier.Soon you'll be looking for a new ... | |
| Constant noisy tubes maybe go solid state? hey @aj523 - I thought you had fairly recently gotten a Sutherland 20/20 - did you already get rid of it? You said you have all tubes. |
