100+ Head-Fier
Hi
I try very hard not to post too much on Head-fi due to the many negative comments that the site seems to generate.
However, there are many wise members who's views are diminished due to the volume of uninformed information.
If I can identify such members and I believe they have knowledge that would be useful to me , I ask.
I initially was going to answer the above by way of PM but have decided to post here.
I am an older man. I do not keep myself informed with the latest technology,gimmicks or otherwise.
As stated, I'm an ex Police Officer , so I'm a disbeliever of most things I hear until I can prove it for myself.
As far as MQA is concerned , you seem very sceptical ?
I assume you've auditioned it?
I made the point 'try it and see.'
You make the point regarding the Salesman. So, you obviously have proved that the Salesman in question is unreliable. I have full faith in my HiFi Dealer.Yes, they may try and sell me say 'Stillpoints', so I audition them, then take them home and audition them against against say HRH. I then do 'blind' auditions with my wife. Sometimes I don't agree with them and so I tell them. They may argue that stillpoints are technically better than anything else.I don't care. I trust my own ears!
....and so, your latest PM interests me. "it's been done before" . Can you please send me details. I would like to have something to compare MQA with.Clearly , if there's something out there which may even be cheaper, seems like a good idea to 'try it' ?? My sceptical mind tells me it's not possible to register a patent of something that's already been done??So, I assume Meridian are in for a legal fight?
I've already stated that for me , MQA still needs to prove itself. However, from what I've heard, the signs are good! That's all !!
I've questioned my Dealer about certain matters. When they receive their upgraded 818v3 they will bring it to my house(as they always do) and I can do my own auditions with no tricks attached!! I'll let you know.
