Your endorsements seem more like those of an easily excitable kid in a candy store...

... when it comes to audio playback performance.

Rather than those of a seasoned savvy audio professional or enthusiast with average or better listening skills.

And yes I do have an idea what you know other than what you write as you make it clear by your posts you know very very little about real performance. Unless of course your words are cheap and meaingless. Which IMO are exactly that.

For example. If you had a clue what you're talking about performance-wise you would have realized that I need not have listened to the Vandersteen room myself to realize your words endorsing the Vandersteens were meaningless. For one thing, the technology does not exist that would allow any speaker to compensate for or correct the many and significant shortcomings and distortions in every other part of the playback vineyard. Hence, your Vandersteen performance claims are an impossibility and therefore nonsensical. Unless of course, every other part of that system was also "musically perfect..., across the board." In which case, if you had any credibility you would have credited the entire playback system instead of just the speakers. BTW, it is my experience that those who know very little about playback system performance and/or have very limited listening skills are the exact same who attribute all sound to the speakers. Almost as though nothing else matters. Sound familiar?

Another example regarding your MQA endorsement. It's a given that you've never "experienced a birth of a new world" so that alone implies you know not what you speaketh in this endorsement. But like your endorsement of the Vandy's, once again the technology does not exist for a format to compensate or correct for the shortcomings of every other part of the audio playback vineyard. And as you admitted in a recent thread below, you apparently never performed any due diligence when you supposedly first auditioned MQA but now 3 years later you intend to perform due diligence after listening to all the complaints in this forum.

My advice is, give it a rest, John. We all deserve it, including you.
