Thoughts about the "Cheapaudioman" on YouTube


This gentleman has stirred up some controversy in the audio world over on YouTube. I personally, find him very interesting.  What are your thoughts?

@mapman,

I find him entertaining. I think he has a good grasp of inexpensive value oriented equipment simply because he reviews so much of it. I believe he is a good place to start if you are new to this hobby. He is respectful of other peoples opinions, (usually).

 

He has another channel called the cheapwatchman, although his ideas of value of watches seems to vary quite a bit from them as opposed to audio equipment. 

IMHO

@musicpod 

That was more tongue-in-cheek on my part. I think the audio snobs out there believe he can't possibly have anything to offer the hifi enthusiasts or newbies with the caliber of equipment he chooses to review.

I think that could be considered a controversy. 

Thanks to all who have responded to this thread. Great responses from all of you!

He has helped Geshelli Labs immensely, and doesn't get a dime for it. Good equipment at a very reaonable price. IMO. Randy does try to be helpful. If anything he can give you a good laugh at the start of an otherwise boring day!

Randy seems to be improving as he goes along. He readily admits his mistakes. I think he will be invaluable down the road to newbies. This translates to keeping this hobby alive. IMO.
