Can you guess who this is from?

"Too bad the "high resolution system" owners have such low
resolution ears & prefer lower resolution speakers
------------------------------
"Low resolution hearing" reflected by public demonstrations of their
claimed listening skills under controlled liostening conditions (brand
names hidden and A-B volumes matched).

'My equipment is better than your equipment' is the quip of an ignorant
audiophile with big-ego issues. The sound quality of audio equipment is
much more than a high price -- sound quality and resolution are strongly
influenced by room acoustics (the most important component of all) and
speaker locations/listener location within a room.

All other things equal, near field speakers will provide more resolution
than distant speakers, and good headphones can provide the best possible
resolution ... but most audiophiles prefer the lower resolution sound of
distant speakers."
