Wow what a greeting to give a new forum member!!!

Well, it is me. I would like do not moderate my attitude and my strictly audio judgments about audio result of the people that I do not know vs. to the people I consider as my friends in audio (and I consider you later). The values of results are the value of results and I do not treat you different from any others. Also, Bob, and let to be honest: I hate that “embracing” and “we love you” attutude that oversells any audio site. I try to keep the things “as is”, leaving my social grace for my girlfriend when she in her PMS state.

All kidding aside Romy I think you have to be more objective than subjective about your opinions this hobby as I have found out  varies so much of what is good sound and what is bad sound.

I always puzzled that some people read my comments asking me how I can be sure that it is true. I wonder if specially for them I have to put a declaimer in from on my site remind them that each single word and opinion I say express my own point of view. Wasn’t it not self-explanatory?

I've had people tell me that my recordings are the best digital they have heard and I have some say they were not impressed, how can I judge there tastes??

And why should you care? You should not try please the needs and demands of judge but rather to please the needs and demands of sound as you understand it.

Another case I can come over your Romy and tell you your system sux, (I doubt that it does)how can you disagree,music also comes down to many things mental, physical etc.

And what is wrong with that? It is exactly what calls: educational experiences. If you point of that my shortcomings of my results and would be able to point of the specifics that I did not reach yet then I would be very grateful.  To surprise of many people - I have a bigger fish to fry then to build up my ego via the means of funny cable elevators.

What is good sound? What I produce is what "I" believe is the best I can get off of what I'm using as a transfer at that time the one advantage I have is I can come back and remaster it again as I improve my system.

Bob, it is exactly the point. I do understand and respect what you do from a perspective of own system improvement and the perspective of own involvement into performing art. However, from a perspective of Authored, Signature, Tailored Sound what you do does have a room for … Authorship. I am very prepared to talk about it if you wish, I try to imply it. Tel me that I am not diplomatic? :-)

Anyhow, I do not know where this conversation is going, patricianly if you become to be defensive. I am happy to upload at my site your new addition to your catalog and I would be happy to buy them if the recordings that suspect might come become available. I would even prepare to offer what I offered in past to all folks who do transfers: I would like to pay premium for a copy of the digital masters - the very first raw not processed files. However, I still would like to keep my loyally of my opinion and my judgment not to the interests of my valet and not to the interests of my friendships but to the interest of Sound. OK, now I am overwhelmed with myself and I need to sign off…
