Jay’s Audio Lab YouTube interview 😂

@ronres 

thanks for the link. I was unaware of the new resource. I do have to agree with your general observations about the forums -  with respect to experience level represented and growing hostility. 

And thanks for WBF. I am learning much over there.

I will add that I may be an outlier in that I don’t generally prefer videos as a format for audio reviews/discussions as I don’t seem to have the necessary attention span to make it through the unrelated chit chat or fluff, and the overly effusive descriptions of what veil, previously unrevealed, was removed

While I read TAS, I do so quickly and am grateful for concluding comments. I necessarily am distrustful of any conclusions as they’re seemingly always positive and too often lack relevant comparisons but at least they cover gear in which I’m interested.

On the other hand, I like forum discussions because it’s relatively easy to wade through comments that are tangential and/or unhelpful, hostile or from people with strong biases (many of which they’re unaware), and find those nuggets that are real, honest - (no financial incentive) from those with far more experience than I have. I can also come back to them easily - I needn’t try to find the place where i left off in the aforementioned video.  I can consume information at whatever tempo my appetite that day supports.

Best,

That guy is special . A true gate keeping .
