Did you ever notice:
That if you listen to a dealer demo of a product others LIKE and post findings that you liked it:Response post:"Oh yeah man, that is an excellent thing..I bought them."
But if the dealer demo leaves you NOT liking that [expensive product]
Resonse post: "Your opinion is flawed! The room was bad!, the gear was bad!, the source was bad!, the cables were wrong! you can't POSSIBLY have not worshipped them! They are too expensive to be disliked!"
If you like and expensive component/speaker:
Response: "Yeah it is truly exceptional..."If you post [heaven forbid]
"Those ATC SCM-12's just pulverized those Talon peregrines at a fraction of the price. Makes no sense to pay 3 times the money!"Response: "Oh no way man, the setup must be off, you must be deaf. The talons are soo much more refined.. you must KNEEL before them. You have spoken BLASPHEMY!!! The ATC"S are not expensive enough to be in the same room as Talon!!! AHHHH!
