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

Re: Holy mackeral Jon, READ THE DAMN POSTS ENTIRELY

"It would be possible for one to denigrate your methods only after you have provided a method. So far, you have not provided any reasonable "method" which can be questioned. You have, provided lots and lots of verbage about how you are "experinced" in such matters of high end audio, but as far as I can see, your methods are simply, "I tried it, it works, trust me, I'm Jon..." Without any rigorous methodology.."

John:

That quote goes to the very core of Jon's "new clothes". Unfortunately, because he recognizes no constraints imposed by the very disciplines in which he was supposedly educated, he can perpetuate the BIG LIES in any unrestrained way he chooses.

That's why he focuses so much on naysayers and yeasayers - and sees the world of cables divided into two opposing camps. His mindset is that of a cultist - not a scientist.

No amount of reason will ever change this situation. He is unprincipled and a disgrace to the engineering profession. Sadly, your fellow co-workers are probably quite justified in their temptation to start laughing at you for trying.

You have done your best. But I have concluded that the people who frequent AA in the main are cultists looking for a cult leader. Many are educated, articulate people, but that has never been a guaranty against human frailties that cause people to seek the security of irrational dogma rather than the uncaring sharp knife of the truth.

You've fought the good battle and I respect you for that. I will respect you if you choose to continue to fight, but I will respect you no less if you choose to find other outlets to report on your very interesting work. I merely ask that you keep me and others informed if you choose to go elsewhere to a place where truth and science are respected and encouraged.
