Wow, Head-Fiers sure are on high horses. I made many points and all they could come back with is that "Yeah, these suck because I heard them blasting at Best Buy for a few brief moments." There's a LOT of love for products from Head-Fi sponsors but nobody gives a hoot about anything else regardless of if they have used them or not. On top of this, everybody basically jumps on the same bandwagon here based solely on other's postings.
A lot of people come on here and figures "Hey, this person has the most posts, he/she must be right" or "Wow, they are using all these new terminology, these people must know a lot!" With these people believing basically anything that "sounds" like something of value, I would have liked to believe that Head-Fiers would provide valuable information instead of a load of better then though let's all jump on the same bandwagon regardless of what reality is mumbo jumbo. Then when someone dares to explore other avenues that deviates from the path most treaded, there's a big backlash, a backlash without a firm footing in anything.
This really comes to show, thank goodness I actually frequent audio and electronic shops regularly to try things out instead of coming on this forum (really, I only came on a few times to research on some amps and see some info about burn in times for some of my sets, then I decided to be constructive and contribute, what a big mistake).
JayG30, if you truly believe that posting on here is just to express a personal opinion or bias without much merit, then you are sorely mistaken. Have you not seen the amount of "What should I buy?" posts on these forums?
AnGeLiCbOrIs, the reason this thread started was because there was interest in the Beats, the reason for it being 26 pages long is because the majority is just straight out bashing without merit. Guess folks on here don't REALLY do research and apparently they don't like to read. On top of that, I've been labeled a fanboy just because I'm being fair to something that deserves some credit and due to the fact that I haven't really come on here much except recently, I received a lot of backlash. When the original impression was made by Jude, a admin on Head-Fi, it garnered a lot of interest and it was mostly positive and with serious posts. Then a few pages later, the biassed and truly pointless pollution of bashing posts appeared. I tried to get this thread back on the right track but alas, it just turned back into a pile of bashing again.
