My secret correspondence with the one and only NYOB
Mickey, is this your way of trying to seduce me? Why don't you admit that your favorite form of humor is to do a Dutch Oven on you boyfriend, after the NAMBLA meetings? Flatulence obsession, noted. Thanks Mr. McMickey for, admitting you crave performing analingus at every opportunity. .. .. .. |

My secret correspondence with the one and only NYOB
Clyde Slick said to SillyBot: The other thing he got wrong, is that I have done DBTs. They've been of audio files. Congratulations!!! That is an excellent thing to do before deciding which audio files to purchase. LOL. Silly is certainly full of useful experience and valuable insights. Or something. .. .. |

They've been of audio files. Silly 'borg, those aren't real DBTs. Atkinson has programmed you well, Middius. Trouble is that the last time I challenged him on this point, he was forced to dissemble. Middius - inferior clone of a dissembler. Good heavens..ABX of audio files isn't a form of double-blind testing? Someone had best alert the authorities. Perhaps start with the codec testers on hydrogenaudio.org. http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/...p?showforum=40 http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/...howtopic=16295 To be fair we have to recall Atkinson's religious beliefs: (1) One of Atkinson's cardinal religious beliefs is that all digital converters significantly degrade sound quality. (2) Another of Atkinson's cardinal beliefs is that all audio components including converters have a characteristic sound of their own, which they impart to *all* music going through them. (3) Therefo Any testing procedure that relies on the sonic transparency of digital converters must be flawed, notwithstanding any and all convincing (to normal, rational minds that is) evidence of the existence of sonically transparent digital converters. These are immutable articles of faith, which are among the fundamental principles of Stereophile and its kindred audiophool ragazines. |

Is Middius paying you? Do you find George's constant stream of lies and hate to be somehow endearing? Now what is the basis for this question, Mike? Do you see me agreeing with George at every turn? Hardly. I've made my position perfectly clear. I believe there are clear audible differences between components at all price levels that AB testing generally fails to reveal. I also believe much of the high end is bunkum and not worth anything like the asking prices, and that most of the high end accessories and tweaks are a complete waste of money and a shameful indulgence. What camp does that put me in? |

paulie said, without the assistance of "god": Do you find George's constant stream of lies and hate to be somehow endearing? Now what is the basis for this question, Mike? Do you see me agreeing with George at every turn? Hardly. I've made my position perfectly clear. I believe there are clear audible differences between components at all price levels that AB testing generally fails to reveal. I also believe much of the high end is bunkum and not worth anything like the asking prices, and that most of the high end accessories and tweaks are a complete waste of money and a shameful indulgence. What camp does that put me in? Although you might think of yourself as mainstream, to radicals like Mickey, Kroofeces, and the other 'borgs, you're an Unbeliever who is line for a good stoning. It's not enough to say, as you might that "I can't hear any difference," or "The difference in performance doesn't justify the difference in price". Those are the thoughts of a Normal. 'Borgs do not tolerate Normalness. What They want is to destroy the E.H.E.E., a goal that cannot be accomplished without a full-on declaration of war. For Mickey and the Krooborg to grant you any distinction from me (or Clyde, or surf, or anybody else on RAO going back to Derrida and Zippy), you must embrace the aBxism cult and all its rituals. You must divide your posts among (1) mindless and reflexive yammering about "tests", specifically aBxism rituals, (2) accusing Normals of lying, slander, and pedophilia, and (3) randomly smearing Stereophile, its writers, and especially John Atkinson. If you do all of that, then, and only then, will the 'borgs grant that you are not completely in my thrall. It's a with-Them-or-against-Them sort of thing. .. .. |

My secret correspondence with a very big KNOB
It was dark, there was steam, lots of steam. I never saw his face, but I felt the power of his hands. And what he presented to me was very special. I hope Brian isn't too jealous..but I find it so hard to wait for him. |
