Just so everyone is clear. This whole thing came up when a HOBBYIST posted some of his findings. He was having fun experimenting and sharing. He was then run out by PROFESSIONALS with finacial interests.
Anyway is seems Danny is not going to share the speakers with anyone who may not agree with him or is not getting "the press" involved.
I agree w/ your initial comments, but totally disagree w/ your final assessment ...
Here is the thread that started in GR Research forum as a follow-up to DanTheMan's Audiocircle Lab thread (referenced in 1st post):
http://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?topic=83841.0I think Danny was nothing but helpful & informative in both threads. Does he have strong opinions? Sure, but he has a very strong background in this arena. IMO his input was nothing but professional & educational.
Others, most particularly DanTheMan, ratcheted up the rhetoric excessively. The thread got cleaned up & DanTheMan was put in time out due to threats given to a least one poster. I'm sure others could have been given time outs as well, but it was determined by an AC admin as to what was appropriate & inappropriate.
I am sorry that things escalated to the level they did, but DanTheMan was the main instigator for dialing up it up to the extreme.
