So it does'nt bother 109 of you that you took the time to respond to what
amounts to nothing more than "Forum Graffiti" ????

I don't think it's forum graffiti at all. I think sudz was just posting an observation. One that actually holds water if you lift your head out of our geekhaven. Personally I think stereos are super cool. But my kids friends see the stuff and kind of look through it.
They think my water cooled gaming rig is awesome though.
They don't call it the "Asylum" for nuthin' ya know.
Come on!! It's like saying "Vanilla Ice Cream is not cool anymore"
Whether it is or is'nt exactly why should this matter ? are you going to stop eating it ? Or hide the fact that you are still going to eat it ?
The most a comment like this warrants is a "Well,that's interesting!!"
You are interested in "Your" stereo or you've moved on to something else
who buy the how-to-parent self-help/self-improvement guides BUT resent any suggestions from others about how to raise a child i.e., practical help on the side.
for you, as for so many pragmatic parents that can't see beyond their own noses, it's all about 'what works'
using your vanilla flavor ice cream as example, it so happens that this is the #1 choice of flavors (for Americans, I recall) AND that is more than just ''interesting'' because to see such a bland and neutral choice of flavors is quite surprising: more and more we see products that are more colorful (tennis balls, for example or even stereo amps like 'son of ampzilla' with its striking blues) and captivating. so, your example works against you. plain ole vanilla is actually favored (in ice cream), not what marketing does today in appealing consumers.
but if your only purpose to visit a hobbyist site is TO SEE WHAT IT CAN DO FOR ME PERSONALLY IN UPGRADING EQUIPMENT, then you miss alot of worth.
thanks for interest.

Do you feel better now ???
I honestly have no "Philosophical Agenda" that I have an overriding desire to let everyone else know how I feel about "Observations". We all make thousands of them everyday.
I forget that being an International forum,not everyone realizes when you are using 'figurative' examples or talking 'literally'. My apologies if this
is somehow lost in translation.
(Yes,I suppose it was a bit 'shortsighted' of me to 'chide' others for
'their' interest in something I did'nt recognize as subject matter for
discussion. Please exclude me from any further involvement in this particular thread. Thank you)(I'm going to label this as "Steve's Recant"
& refer anything further with this back to this)
i overreacted to your overly interest in practicality ("What do I care if....?; my will stay the same anyway" thinking)

And you're replying because...?
Public service announcement !!!!
(I'm sure most people just had momentary lapses of intellect function
& it was then they decided to send in their comments. I mean think about
it.... Commenting on 'Subjective Opinions" is like saying to your dog(after he scarfs down a dog yummy) "Tastes good,does'nt it boy")
the Audio Asylum is about audio. The vast majority of posts here are subjective opinions. By your logic the whole site should be shut down.
Perhaps Hydrogen Audio would better suit you. They don't allow subjective opinions over there.
Noooo !! subjective opinions are fine, I just think that "Observations"
are either something you find "interesting" or "obvious" for various reasons.(I really did'nt want to join this discussion,but listening to Mahler at
2:30 AM put me in a "Mood" I guess.. Heh,heh,heh)
