    Hi-Fi is NOT a subjective hobby.

    Can you (or anyone else) please explain to me why this is such a difficult concept for some to understand and accept. Best.

    Hi-Fi is NOT a subjective hobby.

    This discussion is fascinating with some questioning the generally accepted subjective nature of audio quality, people's personal ability to enjoy their music despite (in the opinion of "others") their shitty, sub par systems and the fact that these "others" apparently believe that they are 100%...

    Well excuse me for having a different opinion / interpretation. I will make sure that I don't do that again. I don't argue. I just add to my ignore list. Bye bye.

    Hi-Fi is NOT a subjective hobby.

    Correct. Some people are happy with what they have and do not want to spend the time, effort and money to "pursue" the latter re: improve the sound of their audio system. They have other interests and choose to do something else. For example, I recently simplified my system and am selling all...

    My name is Gordon Gray. Thought you intentionally mispelled my name. Thank you so much for your clarification. My sincere apologies for the mistake. Unfortunately, too many members take personal shots at others (and recently at me) in my view. Hope / trust you now understand.

    Hi-Fi is NOT a subjective hobby.

    Please post specific examples assuming this is fact based. I would really like to see proof to back up your claim. If I posted that in the past, I shall respond accordingly. Apparently unlike you, I really try to respond to any disagreement I may have in a respectful manner. I do not play...

    Hi-Fi is NOT a subjective hobby.

    Not if the owner thinks it sounds fine. It is his or her system, not yours to pass judgement on sound quality and enjoyment. I often wonder why some people cannot understand / accept this basic concept.

    Merely a different interpretation and a IMHO post. No agenda / mal intent. Best

    Hi-Fi is NOT a subjective hobby.

    I assume you are referring to "good sounding systems" that sound terrible to you. Who cares? If the system owner thinks it sounds great, what's the issue? It is generally accepted that audio quality is a subjective judgement. In the end, that is all that really matters. Respectfully.

    Hi-Fi is NOT a subjective hobby.

    Please clarify if you can. Are you implying some people that posted on this thread are ordinary? And if so, in what way are they ordinary?

    Tom is absolutely correct. I do hope you spend your online activities elsewhere on sites where people recognize and fully appreciate the fact that you are always right and never wrong.

    Vitus Audio RC-010 Remote too sensitive.

    Until needed, wrap it in something that will absorb vibration.

    Audio Critique

    A very flawed set of assumptions IMHO. Good luck Amir. I am going to pass.

    Hi-Fi is NOT a subjective hobby.

    I never stated whether or not pinpoint imaging is good or bad. I merely pointed how two different speaker designs have different imaging properties. BTW, I am fully aware that "real music" never has small and sharply outlined pinpoint size images. Best.

    Hi-Fi is NOT a subjective hobby.

    Having owned the MBL 116's for some seven years and having read numerous reviews about the "omni's" inherent strengths and weaknesses, I respectfully disagree.
