What I said above is sufficiently clear and does not require restating nor rearrangement by anyone else.
Straight through to the keeper.

Me too.WTMM, I love that.
It's all "text on a screen" to me.
Though sometimes I catch myself contemplating of what a face-to-face exchange would consist.
I am a member of three major audio/hifi forums, I rate ASR as being for the objective HiFi enthusiast, the other two which I won't name, the first being for the subjective WTMM (Way Too Much Money) enthusiast, the other is in between, with subjective and objective enthusiasts.
One thing that should be pointed out is that it's not compulsory to jump on anyone that has different views than your own, but as I said earlier every forum has there fair share of those types.
I have not necessarily caught all of your threads but you strike me as someone who might be happier at one of the "listening based" fora of which there are many. Discussion as you refer to it ,, is not objective it is subjective. Measurements are objective. My observation is that "listening based audiophiles" are the ones who frequently are too emotionally immature, or in my experience too technologically lazy (to learn the scientific foundation that audio is based on whether as a hobby or in professional life.) to review scientific data. They are the ones that freak out when their beloved tube amps measure like shit. This is a great group. If you don't like it here, I think you should find someplace that fits your view of the hobby,, better.
I've never seen anyone banned from here, mmm maybe one who was out of control.
Well with how many people responded to this post sounds like he hit quite a few sensitive nerves.
Okay....enough beating of my sensitive nerves...
What's the ASR safe word?
Benchmark - measures great/sounds great
Pass First Watt - measures weird/sounds great
Audio Research and some other tube amps - measures mediocre/ can sound great
You pays your money and make your choice.
Amps I love:
Benchmark
AR D79B
Pass Aleph 3

Hey so ya dad spent your collage fund down a back street with me mum... Let it go.. I'm sure he had other ways of making you feel ' extra' special so just concentrate on them.I keep trying to goad @Thomas savage into banning me, but every time I allude to his various deviancies or the sad nature of being the lovechild of a fallen woman, he just comes back for more.
I think Amirm should send a tin of pilchards to every dissatisfied patron.I tried refunding someone once but I can't do math, being anti-science and all...

We are ment to be the least aggressive objective forum though, in that sense the op dose have a slight point.I am a member of three major audio/hifi forums, I rate ASR as being for the objective HiFi enthusiast, the other two which I won't name, the first being for the subjective WTMM (Way Too Much Money) enthusiast, the other is in between, with subjective and objective enthusiasts.
