This is why High-End Audio has become what it is! We are too quick to give manufacturers a pass to say whatever they want, without questioning or asking for proof. It’s no surprise that our hobby is filled with so much sneak-oil, fraudsters, charlatans, and shisters. We are ridiculed and laughed at because of the kind of BS we accept because it “sounds good”. While many here don’t have the knowledge to question and peer review claims, some of us do.
Sorry but this is the world not just audio. Every consumer product makes high claims. The worlds best Pizza, Tacos. Steak House, Athletic Shoes, most blah blah car. Audio is just another consumer product and in most of all of these claims there is NO proof.
Who's is the best Pizza? The Best Red Wine? The best Cigar? arent these all a matter of opinion?
The world is full of scammers in every field and IMO audio might have some but they do very little harm to anyone even if they are.
Let the buyer beware! You want something that to be really honest you won't ever get. Proof? proof to whom
Personally I don't feel laughed at or rediculed I do my homework when I buy things and live with my choices, if people don't do their homework that really is there issue.. I'm an avid golfer every single company has something every single year that makes the ball go farther or straighter so what, does that mean they are scammers?
Go look at webpages of any consummer products
are they all liars and scammers?
Take a deep breath , chill you will live longer this is all a tempest in a tea pot. No one is forcing anyone at gun point to buy anything. We all have free will and can exercise it.
