Popular Post sdolezalek Posted February 18, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 18, 2020 As ones of those who simply stopped posting when the noise started to exceed the signal, I'm not encouraged by the response to Chris' change. The problem is mostly a lack of self control. Most abusers know who they are and will behave badly until punished severely enough to briefly get them to start behaving better. But who wants to run a site where you have to spend a huge amount of your time "getting abusive children to behave?" The problem neither this site, nor any website I know of, has been able to fix is that "controversy sells." if you want lots of web traffic, create controversy. A friendly helpful site is great, but boring. I bet a quick analysis would show that heated arguments here get 3X to 5X the number of responses as non-controversial topics. If you can fix that, you will change the world. Here's hoping you can! 😉 The Computer Audiophile, Jud, tapatrick and 3 others 1 4 1 Synology NAS>i7-6700/32GB/NVIDIA QUADRO P4000 Win10>Qobuz+Tidal>Roon>HQPlayer>DSD512> Fiber Switch>Ultrarendu (NAA)>Holo Audio May KTE DAC> Bryston SP3 pre>Levinson No. 432 amps>Magnepan (MG20.1x2, CCR and MMC2x6) Link to comment

Thirty years ago, many believed the sheer volume of knowledge and information the Internet and greater computing power provided us would resolve all kinds of scientific and other disputes. Instead, the more we learn, the better we understand how little we actually know. We can choose to embrace that complexity and uncertainty and be glad that no matter how little we do completely and definitively understand we (and by that I very much include many of the contributions made on this site) have nonetheless made great forward strides in our ability to produce and enjoy musical fidelity. Maybe each time we post here we ought to ask whether we are: a) contributing new and important information to that ongoing enjoyment of musical fidelity? or b) just trying to convince someone that I am right and they are wrong? charlesphoto, The Computer Audiophile, Teresa and 1 other 1 3 Synology NAS>i7-6700/32GB/NVIDIA QUADRO P4000 Win10>Qobuz+Tidal>Roon>HQPlayer>DSD512> Fiber Switch>Ultrarendu (NAA)>Holo Audio May KTE DAC> Bryston SP3 pre>Levinson No. 432 amps>Magnepan (MG20.1x2, CCR and MMC2x6) Link to comment
