Hi everyone !
I'm just wondering, is that a sheep ?
Are users here considered as sheeple that need to be shorn of their money by for instance (like it happened to me twice here), being advised to buy some gear to only later discovering after buying said gear that it's anything but well made? I also discovered that the owner of the forum is a former employee of a bloatware company called Microsoft (No joke).

Yeah the forum owner went to so much trouble to hide he once worked for Microsoft, and has ties to Harman. He has videos and written introductions of himself and about his background where he hid his ties by making them public.

For instance this link is in every post he makes.

A bit about your host....

This is a bit about your host, Amir Majidimehr. I am writing this as to give more context to people reading my technical reviews and measurements. I have realized that without this context, many assume I am yet another blogger spitting out graphs. That is very true but let’s see if we can...

I know, but that's the new thing you know : Today you just need to disclose your ties to a company that paid you to be exonerated of suspicion. You just announced on a youtube video that your review is sponsored by the maker of the gear and you're supposedly cleaned. I don't buy that.

So do you think MS is paying Amir for this site? That is pretty ridiculous. If you've once worked for MS, are you forever after not allowed to pursue your own goals elsewhere? Transparency isn't enough for you so what would have been the way to do this? I guess I'd ask what is your complaint? That a more scientific approach results in a consensus that you are calling people who agree sheeple?
 
He never revealed dirt on Microsoft, it's like working for the third reich and not acknowledging that some things were wrong.

It could be, you can't just refuse to raise the question. I mean do you elect a former kgb officer as US president?

Beyond the obviously insane comparison with KGB agents, let me get this straight...................
MS is behind Amir on this site about audio gear, and Amir is not dealing the dirt on MS (whatever that might be) because they are funding him to keep him quiet?

I'm not sure if I should advise you to lay off the meds or get back on them. :)

Bring us some facts will you, speak plainly. If anything this site is about facts, and science and truth. If you have something spill the beans.
 
I don't know.
Whether this thread will survive or not censorship might give us an answer.
 
I have a ton of dirt on Microsoft. Working on a book deal for all of them. Have an offer for a million dollar advance but holding out for more. Given this, you honestly think I am going to spill my guts here for free? Get real....

Can I play you in the movie they'll be making of Your Time At Microsoft? That way you'll have more time to respond to inane ASR threads like this one. :p
