| OCD mickey website and negativity. If Mikey moves enough merchandise brands are happy - and that makes him legit? Mikey gleefully promotes his deceitful baiting of Audiogon members for self promotion. I someone is legit, that behavior is not necessary. After his video stunt is c... | |
| OCD mickey website and negativity. @joc3021 The OCD Mikey schtick is a like it or not proposition. However, his ecstatic announcement about baiting Audiogon members, exposing handles, and making unsupportable accusations is not the actions of an honest person with no agenda. Th... | |
| OCD mickey website and negativity. @emergingsoul It is difficult to find a reliable source for information about audio products. I sympathize with anyone trying to wade through YouTube videos in search of reliable information. My 2 cents worth is this. Search for well organized ... | |
| OCD mickey website and negativity. @tonywinga From a review of Verastarr Grand Illusion Cables. Sounds like exactly what OCD Mikey rails against, doesn't it? Oh the hypocrisy! To the Moderator that removed my original response, I want a specific and precise explanation why. N... | |
| OCD mickey website and negativity. Does this sound like high end audio marketing hype Mikey would rant about? "They also include "passive RF/EMI filtering technology utilizing rare earth minerals in a polymer matrix, as well as treatments to the live and neutral leg to reduce magn... | |
| OCD mickey website and negativity. Mikey, you have not claimed to know anyone that you lump into the category of having no knowledge or experience. If you don't know any commenters here personally how is that any different than what you accuse commenter of here. Your long rambling... | |
| OCD mickey website and negativity. There may be some commentary here that could be considered complaining. Regardless, nothing expressed here but opinions. Persons that use YouTube as a platform for any topic have to expect others to express like, dislike, or criticism. Comes wi... | |
| OCD mickey website and negativity. Hilde45 did a spot on breakdown. Only thing to add is Mikey is building his brand with the contrarian schtick. Likely more down to earth in a one to one situation. Would like to see a cage match between Mikey and Amir. | |
| Does the streamer effect sound quality @ghdprentice The TOSLINK optical link was specifically designed for 2-channel audio for CD quality bandwidth. The interface components at either end are of mature design, not a "throw in" item of questionable design. Optical cables are immune to... | |
| Does the streamer effect sound quality @cleeds Respectfully decline to identify brand names. Believe there is brand name bias, myself included, that can get in the way for this topic. Will say all my components are from brands with long history in audio, not expensive, high performanc... | |
| Does the streamer effect sound quality How can a Streamer make any difference if the digital stream is fed directly to a DAC? 1's and 0's from Streamer A vs Streamer B can't sound different, right? Not so fast there, Bubba. Only have experience with one Streamer connected to a qual... | |
| Have we lost civility and respect on Audio forums? @pcrhkr Wow, mention of Utah speakers. My first speaker build used Utah 12 inch full range drivers with a whizzer cone, no less, in a Karlson enclosure. Wore out a Dual turntable. Since then built and modified numerous speakers amplifiers, pre... | |
| Have we lost civility and respect on Audio forums? Followers of the Double Blind Test Dogma want to distill the depth and breadth of Dr. Toole's work down to debating cable switching, music memory, or fast switching speaker platforms. There is so much more Toole work related to the many factors i... | |
| Have we lost civility and respect on Audio forums? Right on cue, the self appointed audio experts appear and start arguing. Told you so. | |
| Have we lost civility and respect on Audio forums? The anonymous nature of the Internet allows behavior that would not be acceptable fact-to-face. Agree 100% with an earlier comment about 90% opinion and 10% fact. There are very few actual subject matter experts for any topic. The audio hobby s... |
