Ha. Yes.
That's actually one reason I personally can't restrict myself to pure "objectivist" discussion groups. I absolutely apprecite them, even need them, as respite from the eye-rolling b.s. that goes on in the subjectivist forums. So I go running to the objectivist forums to get a better grip on what's-what.
But I still simply love seeing and experiencing a wide variety of "audio viewpoints" in the form of varieties of equipment. I like all the different form factors, the designs, the different goals, engineering approaches, from sound to wacky. It often yields interesting suprises. (I'd never have predicted, for instance, that the woo-woo purveyors of Shun Mook, with their mpingo-disc filled ideas, would have produced one of the nicest sounding speakers I had heard! Even though I didn't take that to justify some of their wonky claims).
Honestly, when I spend too much time in a place like, say, Hydrogen Audio, it gets a bit dull or depressing. It's too arid for me, and the talk of equipment seems almost restricted to "look how modest my system is and how little I paid, while those idiot subjectivist audiophiles spent so much more!" You'd never see people talking about much of the equipment I find cool and compelling, especially speakers, because...well...that stuff is just stupid and overpriced so lets just stick to commodity-level performance gear. I get the rational, but it's just too dry and reductive and restricted for me; I enjoy the wilder west of different approaches.
