*Bull****. Most of this stuff is so complicated that it would indeed
be infeasible for a DIYer to emulate, but that does not mean it's
good. Its very complexity with "features" like on-the-fly cartridge
loading via remote control introduce new issues.


Mmmm...okay. You start off with bull****, and then you go off on a
tangent that has nothing to do with what I said. News flash: when you
say "bull****," you usually have to follow that up with a contrary
statement. Or can we add Tourette's to your long list of psychological
disorders?


The stuff is good. I've heard it, and it's good. You probably have NOT
heard any of it, as you have been proven as a liar in this respect
more than once.


*In your imagination that is.


No, it's been proven. Koetsu, Harbeth, you name it....you haven't
heard it much less used it.



*Actually, my real hope is that commercial vendors would pick up on
the idea I put forth, and manufacturing them in some quantity the
price would come down. But the DIYer is the core true audiophile per
se, and is much to be celebrated. You don't have to build your own
stuff to be an audiophile but it is the most rewarding facet, in my
opinion, of the hobby.


The most rewarding facet of the hobby IS and WILL ALWAYS BE listening
to music, Jesus, you're a nutcase.


*If you just want to listen to music you do not become an audiophile
per se. You buy a halfway decent receiver and speakers and use them
forever, oblivious to what the market does. The saloons found that out
when they sponsored concerts, usually chamber music, classical guitar
or light jazz. The attendees wall guys that had 1970s Pioneer gear and
no intention of upgrading, and if they did, they preferred the
cheapest pair of two way speakers in the store and a Rotel
integrated. *THIS IS A TECHNICAL , NOT MUSICAL HOBBY. IT"S ABOUT BEING
A GEARHEAD. IT"S A WHITE MALE KIND OF THING. Duhhhhhhhhhhhh.


That's a huge load of ****.

There's a reason why you're alone and spend all your time spamming an
audio group with white supremacist posts. You're a whackjob. You are
totally out of touch with the world around you. People come on RAO and
see your posts and wonder "Who the **** is this guy and what is his
problem?" Well, you're a white supremacist and you're autistic, for
starters.

You don't make sense to normal people. Autistic people rarely do.



If your so-called audio ideas were worth anything, someone would be
doing it. Instead, we get a Bratzi wishlist that rarely reflects
anything that has to do with marketing, sound quality, user interface
or common sense.


*I daresay I know more about UI than you do. A Tektronix scope, a
Leica camera-that's good UI. Ampex 351, AG350, AG440, Studer (but NOT
Revox) -pretty good. Much of what's found in high end saloons today-
yecch.


You have no idea what you're talking about. I've reviewed dozens of
high end components and many of them are a dream to use. You wouldn't
know because you have no access to it. None. You're talking out of
your ass...again. You're totally full of **** and everyone knows it.



*As far as the ARC SP-3a,


http://www.arcdb.ws/SP3/ARC_SP3A1_sc...ites.google.co....


give useful info. It does seem to be a M7 derivative and to me that
just validates what I originally said. *As Simone Signoret said when
informed Yves Montand, her husband, had been putting it to
Marilyn.....


So now you've spun off into your own little world again. Figures.- Hide quoted text -


*Analogies are typically lost on the willfully obtuse. That's you (and
****ter).


Bull****. Analogies need to make sense. As a professional editor, I'm
telling you your posts don't follow normal thought processes. That's
because you're autistic. Quit wasting everyone's time.
