Stereophile: not a shred of integrity
Mike McKelvy said to John Atkinson:
You have yet to adequately address why your magazine has zero oversight on things like Shakti Stones and Mpingo disks, that make people laugh at you when you try to claim any sort of crediblity. They are fraud, and anyone with a shred of integrity would be offended to let the glowing reviews that the dolts at SP penned ever see light of day. (Begin Dance here) The "Atkinson Two-step"! |

I wonder at Audiophools like Paul Packer and the rest of the Middius dupes who don't seem to understand that SP's economically efficacious promotion of snake oil like Shakti Stones and Mpingo disks, is based on how incredibly easy it is to manipulate sighted evaluations. |

Could it be that Shakti Stones, Mpingo disks and other snakeoil crapola have a "subconcious effect" on the "vibrations"? :-D |

Don't take my name in vain, Arnie. First, I'm not a Middius dupe, or a Middius anything. Secondly I've never believed in anything more way out than damping spurious vibrations in CD player cases. Over the years I've laughed at most of the 'tweaks'; what you've mentioned above I've never even heard of, and would no doubt laugh harder if I had. Why accuse me of belief in hi-fi voodoo without a shred of evidence? |

Remember the days when Harry Pearson, et al, would say things like, "This is the same crap that XYZ has been putting out ..." I suppose money wins out in the end because you can't bite the hand that feeds you. If any one knows of a rebel, non-advertising audio magazine, please tell. Cordially, west |

If Middius had a clue about web hosting, he'd know that for $30 one can have a web site for about half a year. http://hostony.com/ I wish that I would have Reaped the web site that Middius threw together for Graham. It was a total train wreck, even as a parody of a train wreck! |

If you listen to Atkinson's and Middius' version of Science, it is clearly from an alternative universe. Sighted Listening tests - the same technology that gave us Green CD pens, Shakti stones and Mpingo disks. |
