You really need to get a grip.
>>>The upcoming generations despise the concept of good audio, because they despise the audiophiles that push the concept of good audio.<<<
They don't despise the concept or audiophiles-if anything, they are ignorant of them.
>>>High-end audio is decadent and morally bankrupt.<<<
Wow, judgment much? You sound bitter.
>>>And we made it that way, by fashioning it in our image.<<<
Speak for yourself.
>>>We were the people who demanded exclusivity and inch-thick panels on our artisan-made stereo equipment, and now we moan because that exclusivity excludes us<<<
I don't recall demanding that, nor am I excluded from anything.
>>>We were subjectivists when it suited us, but now the subjective-led products are priced out of our orbit, we become indignant objectivists<<<
Speak for yourself, that doesn't describe anyone I know.
>>>We bitch about products we don't buy, dealers we don't deal with, magazines we don't read and music we don't listen to.<<<
Again, you speak for yourself only.
>>>So, this is how it's going to end. Not with a bang, or even a whimper, but a protracted whine from our man-caves.<<<
That certainly describes you pretty well. Hopefully, it will end soon.
