Default The Great Audio Swindle or...

"HE2005: The Great Debate".

It is clear now that this public debate organized by John
Atkinson was a complete flop. John Atkinson has failed, his
invitation was a gamble, he played, he lost. His fault ?
IMHO hubris only !...

Do you know why the debate was a non-event (so a complete
failure) ? Because its only goal was to make *publicly* an
ass of Arnold Krueger. Explanation...


1. According to George M. Middius and RAO morons, JA was 95%
sure that Arnold Krueger will refuse his invitation. First
deal, first fall.

2. He was sure that he will be able to destabilize Arnold
Krueger during the debate.
Second deal, second fall.

3. Now, with the only help of George M. Middius, he is
engaged in a pitiful provocating tie-break trying to save
the debris of his shipwreck.
He isn't acting like the journalist he pretends to be but
more like a paparazzi. His last petty attempt : a menace to
broadcast publicly a recording of Mr. Krueger's voice. Note
that this proposal was a total treason to "The Devil's" wish
(see Mr DeWaal and Mr Weil's express warnings).

The RAO careful reader will now understand that John
Atkinson is playing his last trump, the "all or nothing"...
Personally I would not be surprised that he secretly tries
to be publicly insulted in order to get *the* good reason to
engaged a law suit against Arnold Krueger...

Such is the arrogance of John Atkinson; he truly believed Arny would be
"afraid" to face him. Guess again, sleazeball! ;-)


2. He was sure that he will be able to destabilize Arnold
Krueger during the debate.


Again, such is the arrogance of John Atkinson. BTW, how's "the Rug",
John? Is it at least real hair, or just the Dynel it appears to be?

Second deal, second fall.

3. Now, with the only help of George M. Middius, he is

"the journalist he pretends to be" is an understatement. He's just an
opportunistic sleazeball who has carved out a little fiefdom in the
kingdom of the (intellectually) blind. I doubt he believes a small
fraction of the BS he spews.


but more like a paparazzi.


More like a small time putz, IMO.


His last petty attempt : a menace to
broadcast publicly a recording of Mr. Krueger's voice. Note
that this proposal was a total treason to "The Devil's" wish

Once again, John Atkinson of Stereophile is just a small time putz.

Lionel,
I'm not sure I have ever been informed of your philosophical position.
Do you sympathize with Arny in an absolute way, or as a choice relative to
the attitudes found in Stereophile? Or are you primarily defending Arny from
attacks you feel are unfair?

If you were to take photographs of my systems, you would see much of
what you might find in Arny Krueger's systems; cheap interconnects, cost
efficient components, etc. The reason I am opposed to Krueger is much for
the same reason that the French Terror is regarded with horror; so many
possibilities, as well as some truths, are attacked by Arny's broad assault.
The second reason is that Arny uses unfair tactics, such as making an
interpretation of another person's post, and proclaiming that it is the
other person's statement.

I also disagree with Arny's testing methodology. And yet, we have made
so many choices that are similar.

If our particular outrages were combined, the belief would be that both
Arny and George share the Marxist idea, "The end justifies the means."

No no, you misunderstand. When other people spend lots of money, it's
immoral and wasteful and foolish. When Krooger spends lots of money, it's
prudent and manly and very, very smart. ;-)

Check ebay for the trail. Turdy has gobbled up another 166 sound cards, 27
amplifiers, 381 microphones, and 96 MP3 players. Quantity over quality --
that's the ticket!

You stay "within the borders" by encouraging *others* to make and
distribute recordings of private telephone conversations, initiate
bogus lawsuits and file false police reports. You're a real piece of

Yes, I agree. But Bwian doesn't confine his nefarious activities to Usenet.

Oopsie! You're lying again. That doesn't surprise me, of course, since you
freely admit you admire Arnii Kroofeces, Master of the Lying Trade. ;-)

I'm sorry you're too stupid to configure your newsreader properly. You can

Now let's talk about you. Who are you? ;-) How many bicycles have you

victims? How long before the warrants against you in Massachusetts expire?
Did you have murder your parents to get their house, or did you just
threaten them into quiescence? If you had a job and a decent income, would
you buy a bunch of guns, or just stick to drugs?

A few power amps, some equalizers, one or two audio

1. IMO it is not possible to sympathize with Arnold Krueger
in an absolute way.

2. I am really astonished by the weak critical potential of
high-end audio magazines in general. Can you imagine such
"onctuous" critics in literature, music, movie... ?
Guys like John Atkinson doesn't participate to any real
improvement they are just trying to keep up a very
profitable business.
They aren't innovators just petty *pensioners*.

3. On RAO everyone have the supporters he deserves.
Middius supports Atkinson and I am "supporting" Krueger...
....I have never insulted John Atkinson. ;-)

Seems to me that Krueger's system has some potential.
Perhaps it has some serious technical flaws (statisticals,
recording...) but I'm sure that it can be improved to be an
other instrument in the panoply of audio reviewer, nothing
more than an *instrument* among other instruments.


If our particular outrages were combined, the belief would be that both
Arny and George share the Marxist idea, "The end justifies the means."


Except you, Sander and one or two occasional posters, there
isn't any technical opposition to Krueger's views.

Most of the RAO remaining regulars are guys fascinated by
Arnold Krueger. He exerts on them an attraction, a pervet
interest which make them look very stupid. Watch Weil's
pathetic efforts to get a little attention from Arnold,
don't tell me that this guy is "normal", and no need to
speak about Middius' real obsession...

Tell me Surf where I have shown lack of respect for John
Atkinson ?
I just note that I've never seen any Gentleman acting like a
paparazzi, Atkinson threat is a reality not like my alleged
lack of respect...
When, months ago, he invited Krueger I have been the *first*
to write that he was acting like a *gentleman* while the
usual idiots (Middius, Sackman, Weil...) were writing that
he was inviting Arnold to "destroy" him (which was IMHO
insulting for JA).

JA post-debate behaviour really astonished me !!! The above
is just an attempt an exercize to explain this post-debate
behaviour. That's all.

Arny, we are talking about the lack of respect for you as a decent human
being,
we are not talking about respect for you as a technician.
Of course, the respect you might get as a human being is certiainly of no
importance to you,all that matters
is that we all celebrate your geekhood.

He's probably demonstrated more restraint and
maturity than anyone else here and his behavior here
is very consistent with his behavior at the debate.
Your performance at the debate demonstrated some
of the same qualities. Your responses were logical
and consistent. Good job.
It's your behavior here that is inconsistent with
your behavior at the debate. If you behaved here
like you did at the debate, few would have issue
with you. It's here that you act like an adolescent
geek. It's here that you say things you didn't
have the balls to say to his face.

Arny, we are talking about the lack of respect for you as a decent human
being, we are not talking about respect for you as a technician.
Of course, the respect you might get as a human being is certiainly of no
importance to you,all that matters
is that we all celebrate your geekhood.


Just to put the ravings of the lunatic "Ethan Winer" in perspective, here's
how he introduced the thread:

"Arny is well known for his support for the scientific method to
test what is audible and what is not. John is known for, um, - well, let's
just call it an anti-science bias."

Here we see the word "science" used to justify the class envy that forms the
basis for Krooger's wacky religion. In reality, as JA has pointed out,
Krooger and his kronies are true believers in scientism. As defined by
Merriam-Webster, scientism is:

an exaggerated trust in the efficacy of the methods of natural science
applied to all areas of investigation (as in philosophy, the social
sciences, and the humanities)

Or, as an erstwhile RAOer put it, if the only tool you have is a hammer,
every problem looks like a nail.

When, months ago, he invited Krueger I have been the *first*
to write that he was acting like a *gentleman* while the
usual idiots (Middius, Sackman, Weil...) were writing that
he was inviting Arnold to "destroy" him (which was IMHO
insulting for JA).


I never said any such thing.


Nor did I.
