If you are not on the floor roaring with laughter, then it's time to lighten up...

Very Cute.
I suppose that's one clever time-consuming way to propagate the message that one lacks the training to hear audible distinctions or one's system is so loaded with distortions it doesn't matter what they do, or perhaps both.
My Yentl.
Well the Thread Title says it all, ie 'What would Hitler know anway' ... by the way Hitler was a Nazi murderer, Coward (committed suicide), and not German (actually Austrian). Actually it would appear that Hitlers father was Jewish but was rejected by the local Jewish community for whatever reason!
Please be more considerate and kinder to the German peoples...
I've not said anything deragatory about the Germans.
But the point being with this parody is that a crazed man who was responsible for murdering perhaps 15 million people was the only one able to discern audible differences between cables while none of the potentially more sane could. That was the message the author intended to convey.
What the author doesn't understand is that the real message he conveys is that he lacks the ability to make what often times should be very audible distinctions and/or his system is so overloaded with distortions it really doesn't matter what he does, it always sounds the same.
Besides, surely any half-sane person realizes the parady is actually bass ackwards.
Nevertheless, the video was cute and cleverly done.
Blame blame blame.
its either the system or some personal lack.
NEVER would you ever consider the role of the listener in all this and even the POSSIBILITY of being not quite right.
Just saw a special on the human brain. And while it centered mainly on optical phenom, it's clear that the brains processing CAN get in the way of reality. Face on Mars, indeed.
Too much is never enough
Hello, Mr. Wish Fulfillment.
I always consider the listener and their potential silliness when I engage others.
That's why I engage you. But then again, sometimes I think one of us is engaging the other and the other isn't there.
"I can deal with the despair. It's the hope that killing me."
You should probably find out more about the 6" of VACUUM between your ears. The brain is quite capable of manufacturing reality with LITTLE or no data in support.
Actually I should apologize for the Vacuum crack. That's not the case at all. What we really have is a set of built-in prejudices (stuffing, if you will) which will admit no other data.
I urge you to consider the BRAIN part of the equation. More and more is being found out about that incredible bit of hardware/software. (firmware?)
I'm sorry, I must rush. it's been 52 hours and 55 minutes since I installed a new power cord and I must rush in and hear the miraculous change as it breaks in.

Pictureguy, obviously you've been deceived by your brain more than many.
In all seriousness, with a deceptive brain like yours, how do you even know you exist?
Since your feeble mind won't grasp that question, let me ask another. Why do you exist?
To make things easier still, since your deceptive brain has compromised your untrustworthy ears, why do you waste your time in forums that are supposedly intended for enthusiasts to improve the musical quality of their playback systems?
I can only think of 3 distinct possibilities why you participate in audio forums:
1. Ultimately you question the deceptive messages your brain has been conveying to you.
2. You have a burning in your bosom to evangelize everybody else that their brain is deceiving them like your's is deceiving you.
3. You're jealous that others have better trained ears than your own. But you being a lazy ass, rather than seek ways to improve your own listening skills, you find it easier to try to drag others down to your base auditory level.
You may take great pride responding to these threads always mentioning the potential for deception. But for some-to-many it's already a given and therefore, should go without saying.
But the fact that deceptive brain potential is your only real contribution implies that you've never moved beyond that base level of thinking while simultaneously being deceived by your brain further still by thinking that others have yet to arrive at your elementary level or entertain that possibility.
Pretty silly stuff for those in control of their brain.
I could always fall back on 'I think therefore I AM', which is considerably more than YOU can say.
As for the reason for my existence? 'Know your gift and give it away' would be the pat answer.
Everyones brain deceives to one extent or another. You really SHOULD study this issue so you can straighten 'em all out.
You admit to the deceptive nature of reality while saying you are above it. No ego, there!
Oh! at precisly 53 hours, that cable OPENED UP and it was like the Red Sea Parted. I'll never doubt you again.

Pictureguy, I'm sure you're a real fart smeller, er smart feller. Most nutjobs are.
We could go on about your deceptive brain contuously overriding your subjective consciousness. But why? Especially when you're too lazy and/or ignorant to do something about it.
My closing thought is,
There are fart smellers among us whom I've accused of taking their brain out for the occasional joyride just to remind us of their super-keen intelligence. Obviously, I'd never accuse you of that problem.
But you have enlightened me to another perhaps larger segment of society whose brains seeminly take them out for a joy ride and never return home.
Your soul is supposed to be in control of your brain. And you've obviously got much work ahead of you so get off your lazy ass and do something about it.
Which reminds me. If you're listening to anything more than a transistor radio with zip cord for cabling, you've got some explaining to do.
I'm really curious as to how inadequate a person must be to continue these ad hominem attacks without ONCE referring to what I'm trying to communicate.
I don't even know where to start with the interactions, but it seems clear that there is NO objective reality. 10 persons listening to the SAME system, and one-at-a-time, at that, with each persons preferred music will come to quite a variety of conclusions. A couple might agree with 'good, but' while others complain about PRaT or other fault while others might make comments about imaging or slam or whatever else floated or SANK their boat. You might end up with 3 dominant categories of evaluation. Good, but Awful, but and listenable except for.
If you put the demo system in each persons HOUSE, some would never want to give it up while others would quit listening in a couple days and ASK that it be removed.
My soul is fine, thank you very much, you self righteous prig. But be that as it may, do you REALLY think the soul should be in charge? Given the nature of you and the rest of humanity, I'd much rather someone who was RATIONAL was in charge. Have you EVER done something that was RIGHT just for the sake of doing right? Or would your soul prevent such rational processing? I try to be rational. And looking at your string of assertions, followed by various personal attacks, I see only a reactive mentality. Have fun in your world.
As a matter of fact, I LOVE my Tivoli #1 table radio. Sounds fine to me. Perfect for where I use it, out in the garage while puttering.

I am Jewish and I found it pretty entertaining. No! It was funny!
I am one generation removed from the Holocaust and I will still not buy a new or used BMW or Mercedes from the dealer. I do own a BMW 545i but I bought it from my neighbor. He gave his money to Germany. I gave mine to him. I do have to say( and I don't want to get into the best car made argument) the BMW is about the best car I've ever driven(at least mine as I didn't drive others). This one is the fastest car I've ever driven and I used to build muscle cars.
Can't blame you for not wanting to send money to Germany at all. First, the Holocaust was not that long ago. Really, it was just a little before I was born. And second, the evil that lurks in some people, towards their fellow man, is beyond belief...
I do have to say they make great products. Not only cars but just about anything they design and build is over the top. AND EXPENSIVE!!!!!!!!!! My sister says l"Let it go. It was a long time ago. And what about Japan with Pearl Harbor?"
Well! They didn't target religious groups specifically mine and make experiments using them for ethnic cleansing. They did an act of war. Yes we were at maneuvers but that is a question still out there. Did we know prior and leave ourselves open just to enter into a war Joe Kennedy(Ambassador to England at the time) kept us out of because "It wasn't our war" even though our allies were getting their asses kicked?
Anyway! Nuf of that! The Youtube video was funny even so.
Funny you should mention Joe Kennedy.
They 'pinged' him once. The info the gave him ended up in BERLIN.
I'll let YOU draw the obvious conclusion.
Too much is never enough
Laughing...
Seems about right.
