RBNG,
I did follow the recent threads on Critics and while you may feel wronged in being banned, do not assume it's based on your making a too powerful challenge to conventional audio wisdom.
Instead, consider that the main content of your audio iconoclasm in reality is insulting to about everyone on these forums- professional and enthusiast alike. When you persist in your claim there is no audible differences between audio wires (when all conditions are equalized), you're simultaneously saying that anyone who claims to hears a difference is deluded, lying, and/or stupid and the makers are cheats and snake oil charlatans.
This kind of righteous rage appears to the Asylum inmates as an intense egocentrism along the lines of saying, "If I can't hear it, you can't either" can become annoying after dozens of repetitions because such statements can never have a satisfying explication or confirmation.
These persistent declarations seem to me willfully obtuse on a forum whose entire constitution is to consider the subtle differences- refinements- offered by carefully engineered audio pieces. As is always the case with subjective judgments, these matters are a question of degree, but you maintain an odd position of absolutes.
While you're launched on a path to prove you've achieved a proper and superior obliviousness to audio subtlety, others here- are looking for further insight into those very topics- and looking for a bit of pleasure from an avocation instead of accusation of gullibility and snobbish arrogance.
In summary, if you can not hear differences in audio wires, why do you go among a group of people who do- who revel in these differences, harangue them at every opportunity claiming that they don't- and then act hurt when they object? I, for one, am not so offended as perplexed as to the reasons you feel it necessary to try and hammer home a contention that is so personal to you and contrary to the experience of so many here that have spent decades in their consideration.
Can you see this from the other side?
Cheers,
Bambi B
