A Closer Look At Fremer's SHAMEFUL Brinkmann Nyquist DAC "Review"

[HalSF]

Hey @Brinkman Ship — can I ask you an off-topic question? 

 

You seem to *really* enjoy antagonistic denunciatory argumentation and scorched-earth debate, but every now and then I feel like I see a glint of mellowness and a glimpse of the hi-fi music lover lurking behind the no-rules fighter. I feel like I know all too well what you hate, despise, find shameful and dishonest, and what you revile as despicable shilling,  to the point where catching up with an overwhelmingly aggro thread like this sometimes makes me want to gouge my eyes out.

 

But anyone who cares this much must have something to uphold and uplift besides winning this tiny corner of the Internet. How about a brief ceasefire?. Could you tell me something about what you find inspiring and positive about listening to music via great gear and technology? Tell me a little about what you love and approve of? When you're not laying down suppressing fire, what is the hi-fi balm for your soul and what gives you joy and rocks your hi-fi world? Why are you a computer audiophile, what are your fighting for on the affirmative, embracing side? I don't want to believe it's all about being pissed off all the time for you, and nothing more.

Off topic but you already said that ?

 

More to the point though, the moonbeam and butterfly audiophile confessional of "what music means to me" is just boring...

I took a long time-out from the site after posting above and only returned just this morning. Something in my @Brinkman Ship Spidey sense quivered I guess. 

 

Tanned and refreshed, I feel more commited to the moonbeam and butterfly confessional of "what music means to me" lifestyle than ever. But you be you.

 

 at ya.

Thanks.  A quick perusal did not indicate anything obvious that the owner/operator of that site is the same based on writing style, content, etc. but then it was a quick look over.  I wonder if he borrowed the moniker?  Also, that site is pretty thin, almost like a hobbyist site as opposed to a real industry player/writer....

 

All that said, what do I know ?  

The Brian Lucey interview seems like a possibly significant clue.
