Eric,I don't expect perfection, but there have to be some minimum standards in every field otherwise nobody can learn anything from the body of published works. The level of rigor varies by field. It's been quite high in the fields I have had the opportunity to publish or present work in. But rigor seems utterly missing in audio and garbage science has almost become the norm. A lot of the technical articles published in this field could use a disclaimer: "For entertainment purposes only", because that's all you're going to get out of them.
But even in the absence of standards, I still expect people to take responsibility for the accuracy and correctness of what they publish. I don't think Alex is willing to do that. I even question his motives for replying here and I have my doubts about his sincerity in wanting to resolve the issues raised by Dan, Frank, and myself. I think Alex is only interested in damage control and further, I expect that we will be able to revisit this article in 6 months and it will still be there without any resolution to these issues.
I admire your attempts to find some sort of common ground in this discussion. I really do. But I don't think there is any to be found and therefore I see no point in continuing it any further.
Follow Ups:
You are completely wrong, Dave. The article is in the process of correction:
It was corrected already the information concerning Chris Johnson, as it is a different person that the guru of SFI. - request to correct by Chris Johnson
On the next week two points will be corrected:
1. "HD-DVD promoted by Microsoft (WMV9 Pro supporting multi-channel audio 24bit 96 kHz WMA9 Pro)" is going to be replaced by:
"and WMA9 pro, supporting 24 bit 96kHz multi-channel Audio,
promoted by Microsoft." due to the fact, that only video part of MS technology had been approved for HD-DVD standard - this correction was requested by one of the members of hydrogenaudio forum
2. "The first SACD were developed in ProTools," will be corrected with "Some SACD were developed in ProTools" - request of Michael Bishop, Chief Recording Engineer Telarc International Corp.
We are working on correction.
I am going to make the measurements ASAP and find out the source of ultrasonics in different, then THX Music modes, though at the moment I still believe, that they are presented on the disks.
The article will be corrected or a follow-up will be posted.
I also "see no point in continuing it any further", because it looks that you don't look for any co-operation. Thank you.
