I know this has been discussed here before, but after looking at the posts and responses from this week alone, you can see a disturbing trend in this group to discussing anything but high end audio. Am I the only one getting tired of reading I refuse to respond) to people asking questions about tlelvision, computers, boom boxes, and receivers? Am I the only one getting tired of trying to educate the unknowing about things like stereo really can soundstage or equipment does change sound as it breaks in? Is anyone else tired of seeing obvious, deliberate trolls just to see what reaction someone can get (obviously these people didn't get enough attention as a child)?I came and come back to this group because I found interesting discussions about high end audio, differences of opinion about what's important, tips for tweeking or upgrading systems, or just reading what some of the sage members of this group have to say. Instead, I read a lot of things about something other than high end audio and debates by newbies that would know a resistor if it bit them in the ass.
I don't know if anyone else feels like I do, but I would sure like to see the group change back to what it was when I first came here about 2 years ago.
Any ideas how to morph this group back? For those of you who don't agree or are offended, I am sorry to have taken your time with this post.
For the rest of you, good listening
