    I sometimes wonder where all these alleged assertive, bullying objectivists hang out. No objectivist's ever tried to convince me that I 'should' be using one type of audio technology over another. OTOH there's plenty of subjectivists wishing to assert that theirs is the one true way to audio nirvana.

    So it's all out (un)civil war between the subjectivists and the objectivists!

    Fine , but I claim the feathery hat!

    Actually it has been an interesting read, as are most posts. And the above is probably truth and not myth...I am confused. More coffee...
    Is that dark or light roast?

    George, it is "shop" coffee, more like well used, burnt motor oil.

    I have, and I got the latter response.
    Seeing is believing, and hearing is a bitch.
    Don't you just hate it when you cannot detect where the post ends and a signature line begins?

    Try reading any discussion thread that claims how digital is superior to analog, or vice versa. Lots of 'objectivists' claims being thrown out, usually by people who listen to music with their eyes and their intellect, not with their ears.

    So in truth - you can't really give any concrete examples but just thought you'd run it up the flag pole....

    Surely that's a special flagpole and not any log!
