I'm relatively new to Head-Fi I guess, read countless threads for information/insight/reviews, and contributed to a few discussions a where I could. I'm really happy in this community where people of diverse opinions can share knowledge and enjoy music. However, There are certain times where I'd find a thread and wonder how a person can purchase product X, when in my eyes, it is just plain snake oil.
This curiosity inspired me to open this thread on Head-Fier's opinions and audio philosophy.
I just want people to simply share their beliefs and please no arguing/flaming.
