Don't forget the insults.

Peter Veth (as Peter Markus)  BANNED for acting like a dick and being an MQA shill

Galileo365                                                  To be determined

Thanks for keeping this updated.

Your response helps nobody. If something incorrect is posted please point it out. 

 

Its often not what you say but how you say it. Please be respectful of the community decorum. 

 

I thought the point of this was to figure out if Galileo365 was Andy Schaub or just some other guy from Stanford.

 

Sometimes you you have to poke and prod new posts quite a bit.

Seems to fit the fact pattern.

Reminds me of Rachel Maddow's wall but a much shorter list..

[The Computer Audiophile]

Wait a minute. Who is Andy Schaub?

[The Computer Audiophile]

Whoops. I missed that one. I guess @Indydan's list can now be updated because @Galileo365 is indeed Andy Schaub and he sent me the following email.

The one who writes for Positive Feedback, I presume. There really is a pattern here.

Andy Schaub is a Bay Area technical writer currently writing a series on MQA on Audiophile Review.  It maybe was a little rude to point out he recently wrote fourteen delightfully wrong paragraphs.

Ah yes, the publication owned by Jerry D, who told me ten years ago that CA would fail miserably.

And lies about both. Do they never learn?

Those who can, do. Those who can't, write.

Jerry would have made it a failure.  I personally like the direction of CA.

That was really easy to sniff out..we need more of a challenge. These shills need new training at MQA central. Schaub is part of the Audio Note cult. A company whose digital products are in complete contrast to Meridian/ MQA's "scientific revolution".

 

In fact, he was one of the only writers not rave about the horrid MyTek 24/192 DSD DAC.

Jerry D. is one of the most despised people in your industry.  That is a fact, not speculation.

Pattern indeed. It appears we have crossed the threshold of needed evidence, MQA / Meridian is definitely involved in an astroturfing campaign. Oh well let them burn through their cash even quicker...

 

 

[The Computer Audiophile]

I have to hand it to the CA Community on this one. I was checking in on this topic from a short weekend vacation in northern Minnesota and I wasn't able to view everything in context. Only a few comments here and there. I thought Mr. Schaub was here to present some real information. However, you guys nailed it again. He clearly wasn't interested in real information and you spotted him from a mile away.

 

Thanks for everything guys. Without the community CA is nonexistent. 

[mcgillroy]

Chalk up as another MQA marketing fail. Four years in and they still haven’t learned that the turf has changed.

 

Either we are living through a shill-shortage or MQA is just so bad all qualified shills decline.

Yes, the one who repeatedly claims that MQA isn’t lossy. And note he specifically denied an industry affiliation, even though he writes reviews and clearly is part of the industry.  

[mansr]

It's interesting to look at who upvotes posts by these guys too. Always the same two or three names.

Andy did at least make one good “schmear” joke.

 I smelled it out 2 pages ago, that is reason you are here. To undermine the credibility.
