Technical and scientific discussion of amps, cables and other topics.

You're all for it are you?

EW: "BTW, if you or anyone else here would like to discuss the actual points of my article - not just say "I disagree" but actually discuss the science of audio - I'm all for it."

Excellent. Maybe consider going back and reading your webpage there. The derisive responses you are getting are a result of you offering "naysaying" as "debunking". The difference between naysaying and debunking is that debunking requires proof and naysaying does not.

There is a lot of 'this is nonsense' and 'well that's just plain silly' but no real substatiation of your position. They said a round earth was "just plain silly" too. And they were wrong. And the proponents of a round earth eventually were able to substantiate their claims.

A lot of times naysayers believe that they do not need to offer proof - they believe it's up to the supporters of a claim to provide proof it WORKS. That is ultimately true. But when you come out and say things do NOT work (and go on to call them FRAUDULENT) the onus is now on YOU to support YOUR claims. It does not matter whether you claim something DOES work or DOES NOT work. Both are claims and both require substantiation.

You could start by solidifying your positions on some of the

Prove that RFI is a non-issue, and that a cable cannot reject RFI.
Prove that ultra-sonic information above 20khz is a non-issue.
Prove that RLC is the only attribute of a cable that matters.
Prove that power line noise cannot impact sonics.
Prove that power supplies are adequate filters for common line noise.
Prove that isolation from vibration is unecessary for turntables.

If you say "It does not" and someone else says "It does" you either need to substantiate your positions or agree to disagree.

Otherwise, you're no better off than kids in a schoolyard arguing about "who's dad can beat up the other dad".

Cheers,
Presto
