Umm, yeah, I'd agree that you do come off as being weirdly aggressive on this issue. The review I read mentioned those facts and the review seemed very neutral and objective as far as I can tell, so I just reported it here without any intentions.
So what's up with telling me to lighten up when it seems that you are the one who should heed to your own advice? It's fine if you love the Luxman with the HD800 and I also think a lot of the opinions espoused by the members here are awesome.
A couple of points from my end:
1. I only mentioned that the reviewer is an esteemed producer because in your post, you slandered his ability to hear just because he didn't like the Luxman with the HD800. I thought it was kind of funny that you'd just randomly denigrate someone's opinion so blindly, questioning his ability to hear.
2. I have no horse in this race. I don't care about the Luxman or the Sennheiser, but wanted to offer an interesting take from a reviewer from Japan whose review is not easily accessible to many of the forumites. But it seems that your personal preferences for certain components has clouded your sense of objectivity (or else, why would you slander the Japanese reviewer and get all pissy at my posting, of which I have no vested interest in either Senn or Luxman?)
3. It's pretty clear you really like Luxman/Senn combo. Good. But IME, there is always a countervailing opinion in matters relating to music & audio, and to blindly assume the superiority of a component, etc., based on one's own subjective preference is not exactly an enlightened way of thinking.
Happy New Year.
