Learning how to compress data is meaningless in the future when there is unlimited storage space.It is to bad that JJ, James Johnston doesn’t post here anymore, he is one of people who worked on MP3’s, ExtremeSkeptic why don’t you tell him that his book learning means nothing.

I read that link before I became an audiophile almost 2 years ago. I was only using cheap headphones plugged into soundcard of computer. I thought amplifier was placebo. But now I know better.
What do you except from a guy who thinks that books are worthless. But isn’t it funny that the other things he reads, like in audiophile magazines and audiophile internet sites that live up to his magical thinking are OK. If you don’t already have a strong foundation in electronics, woo-woo stuff can sound real and he thinks he knows better.
I used to be an audiophile but not anymore. Now I just want proper audio quality. If I can't hear what vocalists are singing then there's a problem. Tweaks reduced that problem, now I can hear the endings of the words.
I have never read or touched an audiophile magazine. Like I said before, I don't believe in anything, I don't trust anyone. I don't read any books or magazines, they are for stupid people who want to get brainwashed.What do you except from a guy who thinks that books are worthless.

Just look how he has his equipment wrapped up in that woo-woo paper, he just can't believe that he can deceive himself and or be deceived.
I have already been deceived when I trusted skeptics who said something doesn't make a difference. But then I tried it myself and found the truth. They are evil people who lie to people to make their ego grow.
I took him off ignore (he back on ignore again) just is case he learned something, and has we can see, NOT.
Yes, the people here clearly don't know what they are talking about. But they have made themselves believe they do, because it is their job. It started on page 1, someone said he listens for the improvements with the music paused, and then the cult "brothers" agree.I took him off ignore (he back on ignore again) just is case he learned something, and has we can see, NOT.
Brainwashed by learning from good source books and from people who are not trying to sell woo-woo items to you.
Not trusting anyone, so why are you here wasting our time.
Brainwashed, you have done that to yourself already, you fool yourself all the time and you don't (as your put it) need to be brainwashed by us.

What do trolls do when truth has entered their cave? They cover up their eyes and hope it goes away.

I was an audiophile because I listened to bad advice from others. They said something would give better sound but I just got disappointed when I bought it. High-end gear just give a certain flavor to the sound, it doesn't improve the performance.
MP3 isn't properly done if people can hear the difference.
Almost every single tweak I have done makes a bigger difference than MP3 vs WAV. The tweaks properly show the information that is already there.
I don't do live concerts because the sound waves bounche all over the place.
Humans have two ears you know? Multichannel is for newbie audiophiles. True audiophiles eventually switch back to stereo, and then they switch to MP3 when their narrow-minded phobia is gone. Then after a few years of tweaking they switch back to WAV because their system needs it.
Some people don't like to hear the truth. Are you going to ban me from telling the truth?

I don't use a primitive form of communication as my native language. Where I come from we don't use 5 senses for communication, we use only 1. If we were talking in my language everyone in this thread would have already known the truth.
