He combined two different posts from 2 different forums. He edited and shortened the first one. I provided the links to those posts below.

His first quote was a post that was a response not to him but to a different person altogether and not about him at all.

You took two different posts from 2 different forums and combined them together.

You took this post:

Someone in the PC Audio forum in the Audio Asylum was bragging about how well his $550 USB cable sounded. He posted the review like a sales pitch for Synergy Cables.

While I repect other people's feelings I couldn't resist explaining that the cable conducts packets of data in the form of hi-speed pulses. I also explained that I couldn't understand how that $550 USB cable could have that kind of impact on the sound.

Holy sh*t!!! A Nuclear Word War 3 flame war errupted. Those people in that group take their cables seriously. I got to stay out of that forum!

And combined it with this post:

>>"flat earth" beliefs about sound, sound perception and the performance of audio hardware along with a bit of support and encouragement from those in the industry<<<


Are you saying that there may be industry shills here? "Experts" whose job it is to advocate snake oils? $550 cables, $10K DACs, Shakti Stones, etc..

Oh my gosh, I would have never believed it!...heh...heh
