Post Subject: An Oscar for the most retarded comment printed in audio media?Posted by Romy the Cat on: 8/31/2017
I need to say that I have no time or franc lay speaking interests
to read audio reviews. The unfortunate truth is that when I do sometimes I need
to re-read the same paragraph 2-3 times to understand what I was reading. I am
not damn and do read fast and understand very well. In past I even had a phenomenal
memory and I was able to memories pages of text with no even needs to do it. Nowadays at 49 I cannot memories as well it
but I still feel that I have good cerebral skills to read and understand
printed text. However, I do not understand the last good 10 years the audio
reviews. I read sentences but I do not get what the words mean. Perhaps I am an
idiot.
Anyhow, Marshall Nack printed in PF his new review about Lamm
LL1.1 Signature Dual-Mono Preamplifier. I read it 3 times, I do not understand
what he is saying. It is juts some kind of fucking audio Esperanto that I do
not get meaning. What I did get in there
were two factual errors that stood too conspicuous.
First was Mr. Nack’s comment about Lamm. According to him Vladimir
Lamm said: "That is why we are talking to each other, because you like
sounds. And I have zero aptitude for them. My brain is suited for numbers and
circuit design." This is absolute not accurate. Perhaps Lamm was trying to
appear to Marshall as some kind of marketing genius who know how to impress a
stupid reviewer as he was a brain with only number in his head. Or perhaps Mr. Nack’s
just invented the whole story. The reality is that Vladimir is perfectly
balanced person, at least was 17 years back, with very healthy interest in
Sound and with a good aptitude to rationalize Sound by numbers and circuit
design. I need to note that I do not buy the stories that Lamm spread among the
writing idiots that he does not listen his designs and use only “invented by
him theory of how audio should be made”. Anyhow, the quotes that Mr. Nack’s attributed
to Vladimir were pure BS, would it be coming from Lamm himself or it was invented
by Marshall.
The second BS is brilliant. Mr. Nack wrote: “Please note: The LL1.1
employs a single gain stage, hence it inverts the signal. That means you'll
need to swap the plus and minus speaker cables at one set of binding posts.”
Really!!! Mr. Nack, do you really understand what kind crap you wrote? Do Positive Feedback editors read this crap
before they publish it? Besides the ridicules presumption that inverted component
need to invert binding posts fildMarshall-idiot advises to do it at “one set of
binding posts”. Can this guy to get some kind Oscar for the most retarded comment
printed in audio media?
