Whenever I need a good laugh I always check out the audiophool section on Massdrop. You idiots will buy anything.

metalhead2508It must suck not having the luxury to afford whatever you want to buy. Is that why you're so judgemental on other people's purchases?

dingledongerNo, I have money b/c I have enough brains to not buy every new product defined as "better" than the last by some marketing wank. I routinely have $8K-$10K cash in my pocket. If you quit buying crap like this, maybe you can have that too.
"Machined from a solid brick of aircraft-grade duralumin"...Straight bullshit marketing wank. That's just 2000 series aluminum with some copper in it. Duralumin is an obsolete trade name that no one uses anymore. There's no such thing as "aircraft grade" aluminum. There's just aluminum in its varying alloys...some of which are used in the aircraft industry.
The amount of unverifiable, undefinable, woo-woo nonsense that oozes from the audiophool community these days is just so fun to watch. People literally spend thousands of dollars on cables that are "directional" and have "improved laminar flow of electrons which permeates the quantum field to better balance the highs from the lows...blahblahblahblah...."Here's a $500 sticker, put it on the walls around you and listen to your living room turn into a professional opera theater with perfectly balanced resonant tones." It's all been very good to laugh at.

metalhead2508Just like every industry there is snake oil and there is stuff well worth the high price tag... and there is stuff in between. You just have to know how to use a filter.
Of course once you get to a certain price point for each type of audio equipment it's arguable that you're hitting diminishing returns.

metalhead2508It baffles me as well. Right up there with 500 dollar pens in the writing community. The audiophile community sucks the snake oil down like high class hookers.
