AudioScienceReview Just Another Crab Bucket

On the plus side, he will have had more traffic the last couple of days than the last couple of months before. Just keep reviewing Beyers @amirm and this lad is in gravy.

I guess it's just the youTube way that for every popular, informed/entertaining channel on a subject there are tens of bottom feeders with 4 digit subscriptions putting out videos with 2 digit likes/dislikes. Looks like the guy could do with some sleep!

I'm guessing the depression is a symptom of the real issue(s). He needs a psychiatrist/psychologist and maybe some meds might help take the edge off life.

The best medication would be cannabis, not "System Medication", which is likely to make it worse.

1:29 of it, enough. Fckng arsehole. ^^Then again, cannabis might not help, the effects do vary, up to the individual. But it might just influence him to shut up.
But now I want to find out which country, 1:29 was not enough, I didn't get any obvious accent.

I second @McFly @Wombat's posts. Honestly, there are tons of great audio knowledge on this forum, maybe let's not taint it by branching out to amateur psychiatry, personal hygiene advice and other nasty ad personam stuff.

Headphones bedding in? I can't remember where, but one of the popular headphone sites did a running-in test on some Sennheisers I remember and after 48 hours of whatever signals going through them, I seem to recall the change was half a dB at 15kHz and next to nothing below 10kHz.

Having said that, a local Uk forum has often discussed how certainly the lower model Grado headphone differencess seem to be actually mainly ear-pad differences (Grado claim tighter tolerances in the 'modules' as you go up). Grado are quite popular over here in parts of the audio fraternity.

rtings.com did a 120 hour test:

But Yamaha have a specialist who can hear the difference:

From Urban Dictionary:
“Crab bucket syndrome is often used to describe social situations where one person is trying to better themself and others in the community attempt to pull them back down.”

I think ASR is the opposite of a crab bucket. We’re trying to help people out of the “bucket” of audiophilia.

There's a thread on WBF about how mean and deluded ASR folk are... Sigh. I have more important things going on in life right now. But you have to admit ASR gets pretty hostile at times. Just like every other Forum. And just like the old pre-web chat sites. Anytime you lose face-to-face interaction things can escalate quickly (they can anyway, but usually less likely in person, and easier to walk away).

^^I agree, re this forum, but...He wants to say his shit, it's natural he gets reaction like that. Reaction is what he wants. Maybe someone would copy the comments from here and dump it in a comment there.

Bedding in? I thought it was burning in. ...Maybe we could we just go back to running in?

All I want to say is people who use keyboards with flashing LEDs should not be allowed into your home physically or electronically. For your own safety.

Shit, I have one of those.

Because somehow all the small and cheap mechanical keyboards have them....luckily I can turn them off.

I don't see how this thread adds value to the forum.
