Is there some kind of "Idiotic Topic of the Day" contest going on I'm not aware of. Getting sick of checking  recent activity and being bombarded with these inane topics.

 

Easy on that off-topic button, buddy! You'll break it!

Any clock radio that costs less that $4000 is garbage, can't possibly be high fidelity.

I could add my REF10 to reclock the clock in the clock radio, and I’d have a $4000 clock radio!

Or you go and buy that stupid Mcintosh wall clock. $1800. 

Highest performing clock known to audiophiles.

I'm after all of those things, but I refuse to abandon all reason and logic. What percentage am I in?

It’s very nice.  It just lacks a little in terms of it’s ability to output sound.

If you think that the 99% of people/audiophiles here have abandoned reason and logic, - then I humbly suggest a serious re-evaluation.

I'd like to know what he considers on topic for this thread. Even more, I'd like to know why he cares.

He clearly abandoned percentage calculation along with the rest of reason and logic.

Guess what??  Many, many liberal arts majors (even the better ones) cannot "take percentages"!

Mcintosh does not care about that. As long as it looks cool. If an piece of audio electronics looks awesome, then it automatically sounds better.

As far as I can tell there is no topic, which leads me to conclude everything is off topic. Here's your initial post, which appears to be only a series of idiotic statements:

"All components (and cables) sound exactly alike. There are no differences between a $5 clock radio and the finest system money can buy. If you have evidence to the contrary, you are not permitted to say so in this thread. We like our beliefs and wish to keep them undisturbed by reality."

How is that to be taken as a topic for intelligent discussion?

LOL. That's rich coming from you of all people. But since you asked, as I wrote in my earlier response:

"Getting sick of checking  recent activity and being bombarded with these inane topics."

Why would you spend $20 and a clock radio when it sounds just the same as a $5 clock radio as per the subject of this thread?

 

Perhaps it has a 3" speaker instead of a 1" speaker !

I’d want to do a double blind test, to prove that it at least performs as a clock.

But then he'd have no reason to be self-righteously upset about it.
