    The 10 Biggest Lies in Audio

    The article should be taken at face value, some of you guys are really getting worked up over this, and I dont understand why. It is what it is. An article that disproves myth, using solid scientifically proven fact. I'm not going to debate whether or not there are exceptions to some, the bottom line is that salesmen and marketers will continue to perpetuate B.S. information, and the only way for any of us to challenge it is to educate ourselves otherwise. That is the only reason I posted it. I personally think there is a lot to be learned from it, but of course I expected some people to argue. Tirefryr, whether or not its audible, its still distortion. I'm not going to get into the tube vs. solid state. I frankly expected you defaulted to the "its personal prefernece" argument, thats fine, because it is personal preference, and there is nothing wrong with that. - BUT - There is something wrong with something else you said. The truth, is that some people choose products based on cosmetics, some based on output, some based on specifications. Not everyone judges a product by ear, and its wrong of you to say so. Science, with all respect, Sir, is not "crap". Without science, you wouldnt have any specificationss in the first place. But of course, you choose a product by how it sounds, so specs shouldnt mean a thing to you..or am I wrong to say so?

    ^^ Its called distortion. "There are exceptions to every rule." That is not what this article was written about. It is about scientific fact, and how it dispells common myths in audio.

    LOL. I find a lot of the (weak) arguments against these scientifically proven FACTS pretty amusing.

    yeah you can... and...yeah you can... Acer M5/M6 and M5ne/M6ne NG PS: I've heard LOTS of reliability problems with Toshiba, and witnessed it as well. My roommate has had WORLDS of problems with his Satellite series...overheating and more... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I couldn't find any information online about those Acer notebooks. I'm guessing there are replacement/upgrade parts available for them, but do you truly build and assemble everything ??

    You're welcome... I figured everyone here could use a refresher, I've been seeing some questionable advice on a few forums lately. As far as I know, no one has ever beat the amp challenge.

    True, RC and the writer of that article share the same viewpoints on a lot of issues. I honestly think Richard Clark makes a heck of a lot of sense compared to a lot of other fauxdiophiles.

    B-day presents for the woman.

    So how much is all the gear costing you? The stuff looks pretty good. After I finish the Regal, I may be re-doing my mom's car (yes, she's a car audio nut) I'd be needing 2 x 5.25" co-axial sets, 4ch amp, 2 10" or a 12" and a small mono amp)

    I understand the frustration....been there, done that. Just take a break and come back to it, usually you find a solution pretty easily after you clear your head.

    Any contact lens wearers here?? Got my vision check-up today. Changed my prescription (to a lower one ) I guess my eyes arent as bad as I though.... My new contact lenses are so much better than the old ones. I had these expensive ones called Flexi-something Night and Day, and I got new ones today callled Acuvue Advanced.... MUCH better!
