Shove it up where the sun never shines you dumb borg.


Ow. I 'spect that would hurt almost as much at the truth --
that Shippy is the very *apotheosis* of you audiophile subjectivists
-- appears to hurt you.

I think $24,000 for speaker cables to biamp my stereo would
hurt more.
They should make me want a smoke after listening.


Well if the man has the money what goes up your arse? I for one,
personally, do not give a damn about what other people spend on things.
I just don't understand what bothers you borg so much about it.


Nor do I, but it bothers me that people are trying to convince others
that it is impossible to get the same level of performance for less,
when thay is in fact the case.

SOme people buy cars that cost 1.5 million euros. And what those cars do
is take you from point a to point b. just like a 12 thousand euro car
would. Now, do you show your hairy worn out arse when you see an
expensive car whooshing past you?

Well.. do you?


Not a bit, but if car manfuacturers were trying to make people think
that the couldn't go from a to b UNLESS they spend the 1.5 million,
that would bother me, and I thinkn people would want to be informed
that it was not true.

Obviously that concept is one that people aren't likely to believe. In
audio however, that has been exactly what manufacturers and some
ragzines are trying to have us believe about audio performance, and
except for loudspeakers it's mostly not true.

But still, whatever thousand dollar cables is one thing, *FREE!!!* l
looney tunes garbage bin crazy pinhole aspirin "tweaks" is another. The
dumborg sullivan got what he deserved for taking such a cheap shot at
being a demagog.


Yet there ARE comapnies trying to promote stuff that is not that far
removed from SHP's tweaks. $600.00 volume knobs and green ink on CD's
are not that much different, are they?

WELL ARE THEY?
