Trivializing AudiogoN...........ie: what I have is the best...


I have enjoyed and used this site since it's beginning.  It seems that many threads now boil down to people defending what they own in the manner of "what I own is the BEST!)....kind of like a high school pep rally.

Kind of on point, kind of not:

I really appreciate it when those who recommend something explain their own personal context. What did they try before, what speakers, what music, what do they want out of their system.

I am disappointed when users post a single message like "I love X" and when I ask what they have tried, it's just different versions of X, or using vague terms like "coherence." with no idea where they came from, what else they thought was close, etc.

It's like a movie reviewer. If you don't know what movies they liked, you don't know if you'd agree with them.

Identity and brands is a real thing.

It is not every person who can enjoy what they own, be a fanboy and still respect the desire of others to love and listen to something entirely different.

This takes some introspection and goodness knows I am not perfect. :)

I think we should be free to like some things, not like others in a civil and constructive manner.


Best,
