If *all* the truth be known, I've been making substantially higher bids in
other auctions of this audio interface. Based on past experience, sooner or
later one will close in the range I'm willing to pay.
Just what he needs for that horrible organ music he records, wouldn't
you say?
Actually, I already have one, but Weil's never heard any recording that I
made with it. I want to upgrade from 10-channel to 16-channel recording.
Note that Weil is changing his story here. In the past he's agreed with me
that the only organ recording of mine that he's ever heard was merely
mediocre from a musical standpoint. Now he's calling it "horrible". In fact
Weil has experience with only one of the dozens of organ music recordings
I've made. He's basing his global claim on just one sample, a sample I
presented as being musically mediocre, A claim that he agreed with at the
time.
IOW, I presented one of many of the organ recordings I've made as being
technically interesting, but musically mediocre. Weil agreed with me at the
time.
Now, Weil is characterizing *all* of the other organ recordings I've made
(dozens), none of which he's ever heard, as being "horrible". Note that Weil
is an absolute stickler about demanding that others hear things whose sonics
they comment on. It is clear that per his usual track record for hypocrisy,
Weil willfully breaks the rule he holds other's comments up to. Weil's
absolutist rules are for everybody but him, it seems. IOW, he's proven
himself to be a hypocrite, again and again.
Remember this is the same Dave Weil who buys refrigerator magnets to
boost
his eBay ratings so that he will look like a credible buyer.
Jealousy is a terrible thing.
Or perhaps he likes to collect refrigerator magnets the same way you like
to
collect amplifiers.
It's an interesting thought, but I don't think so.
It seems like it's false on both counts. I don't collect amplifiers, and
Weil claims he doesn't collect refrigerator magnets.
I had some pictures that I wanted to put on my refrigerator, and,
being the arty guy I am, wanted to have little bits of art to stick
them up with.
This is probably a far cry from the reason that Arnold "collects"
amplifiers.
Geosynch's problem is that there can be no reasonable explanation for
something happening, when that event never happened.
Weil now claims that he had a functional need for the refrigerator magnets,
which seems to represent a shift in his original story. Well, let's take a
big risk here and presume that Weil is actually telling the truth this one
time.
My story is very similar. I buy power amplifiers on eBay because I have a
functional need for them. I bought a couple of very robust, clean amps to
use to test other audio gear. It was a package deal and the second amp was
broken, but nearly free. I bought it for parts or possibly to fix up if I
needed it.
I bought one amplifier on eBay mainly just to test it. I picked it (Dyna
120) because it's sound quality has been vilified so often by so many
people. In a world where so many amps sound the same, I thought it would be
helpful to have one that actually was bad enough to sound different.
I bought three more amplifiers to use in the sound reinforcement system that
I manage. They seem to do the job.
