In Reply to: Actually no - mofi trick people into buying a product they would never have bought posted by Goober58 on August 7, 2022 at 02:37:18:
Sorry but that is Bullsh**! The same disgruntled owners of those Mofi records were, for years, thoroughly enjoying those same records that you say they had no interest in owning. So that's bullsh**. If you are actually an audiophile you don't buy and thoroughly enjoy something "you have no interest in owning." These are audiophile records. It is about sound qaulity. If the percieved sound quality wasn't there *then* the interest wouldn't have been there and the series would have died a long time ago. Two weeks ago if you asked those same people why they own Mofi one steps and why they love those records so much they would have told you because they sound great.
And please don't give me this other bullsh** about provenance. Nobody that I have ever seen on any audiophile message board has ever brought up the subject of "provenance" when it came to all analog mastering chains before this story broke. No one, ever. The cult devotion to all analog mastering chains has ALWAYS been based on the misinformed belief that it was an audibly better chain and that the difference was quite substantial to the end result.
If they had zero interest in owning those records it was because they bought into the bullsh** passed off as basic knowledge that anything digital in the mastering chain actually matters and matters a great deal.
But they sure didn't have zero interest in owning those records when they actually owned them but didn't know there was a completely audibly transparent digital step in the mastering chain. They loved those reocrds then. Huge edition runs at $125.00 were selling out in presales everytime. Everytime! So don't tell me they didn't want them. They bought them, they played them, they loved them. They just thought wrongly that anything digital in the mastering chain would ruin the sound and they found out the hard way they were wrong and they are butt hurt about it. This IS about their egos and about their massive time invenstment, emotional, and financial investement was placed in a lie pushed by the audiophile media, other audiophile labels and other audiophiles who drank the Koolaid.
