Save your breath, man. Your credibility is shot here.
Fritz, this is just too slapstick. Some guy (AJ) who probably isn’t much different than Ethan Winer and without perhaps any credentials comes along and attempts to discredit me because he thinks cable lifters and cryo-treated products are snake oil, and yet my product has zero to do with either? Then you jump on his nonsensical bandwagon? How the frick does something like this fit into Peter’s “Audio Science” thread? The only logical conclusion is that “high-end” audio includes far more Ethan Winer types than I even thought.
It probably never even occurred to you that the very cables you (and AJ) are using right now may be cryo’ed but don’t know it?
But in case you don’t know, the Ethan Winer types are those who listen with their eyes, easily impressed by the bling-bling, think all components and cables are the same and all are transparent to the signal, and think things like cable lifters and cryo-treated products are snake oil.
I’m going to let you in on a little secret. You know why guys like AJ and Ethan Winer listen with their eyes and think so many things in high-end audio are snake oil while other respectable types swear by such things? Because they lack the ability to discern what they hear and if they can’t hear it, others only hear it by power of suggestion. What’s worse is, rather than those types looking within to improve their skills, they instead look without in their attempt to drag everybody down to the lowest common denominator.
What is the title of this thread again? And whose bandwagon did you jump on? The guy who replaced nonsense for logic and lacks the ability to discern what he hears.
If anybody lost credibility here, Fritz, it’s you. Especially since it’s quite evident by your previous posts, excessive name calling, etc, that you were desperate to latch onto anything that might give the appearance of discrediting me. And you chose AJ whose credibility has already been brought into question as demonstrated in other threads.
But to be fair, I blame myself. For some reason I just assumed you were just a bit more seasoned than this. Boy, do I feel dumb.
