Did you really have them playing in your system? If you did then you
would've taken a few pictures of yourself posing beside them. upload
the pix to something like Flickr, I only suggest this so as to cast aside
any doubts some may have....
Or, you could look at my blog (the one you said that you read, heh
heh) and see the evidence.


Hi Boonie
There is no evidence on your blog?


Yes, there is. There are quite a few posts about receiving them,
unpacking them and setting them up, all with photos. In a couple of
the entries, there are congratulatory comments from the US distributor
on purchasing them. Duh.


*There is nothing to show that you


have actually demo'd those speakers.


Demo'd? What the hell are you talking about? I own a pair. They're in
my listening room.


There maybe doubting Thomas's
who may try to suggest you looked up an expensive model that is unlikely
to ever be heard by any in these groups and concocted a "review"?


So far you're the only one. And you're a bit thick in the head it
seems. I have no desire to prove anything to someone like you. I've
been on RAO for 12 years, and most of the people there know me, have
been to my house or know me on a professional level.


*I don't doubt you have some new speakers. I doubt your claims on
their performance as you've never demonstrated on any gear you've ever
owned any decent bass.


What are my claims to their performance?

*You've made some ridiculous claims on speakers...claiming one set was
flat to 30hz (which the 50 hz spec did not come close to support) only
to amend that claim to require room was required correction to get the
output required.


Name the speaker that I said was flat to 30hz and was actually really
just flat to 50 hz.

I doubt you ever realized how ridiculous that claim was.


Your biggest mistake is saying that I made claims about speaker
performance at all. In reality, I made statements such as "they're
supposed to be flat to blah-blah-blah." I gave you this information to
give you some background on the speaker, not because I was some
salesman trying to get you to buy them. So what I said was not any
sort of claim at all, but the manufacturer's specs. Moron.

This is one of the biggest clues about your Aspergers...you simply
cannot understand things like context. I had you and Art over not to
show off my system, but to allow you guys exposure to some of the
things I was reviewing. Somehow you've twisted this into me wanting to
show off my system and getting your approval. I may have really liked
some of the gear I was reviewing, but that was my opinion. I remember
all three of us really liking the Devores a lot.


You are very often full of audio BS and all you offer in support of
your ridiculous statements is obnoxious attitude.


And yet everytime you have challenged me on audio subjects, I have
crushed you like a bug into the ground.

There's a reason for that. It has to do with your RAO nickname.

You're a huge jerk, Scott. Jim Sanders had you pegged, George had you
pegged and I have you pegged. Throw in most of RAO, the Chargers group
and the Padres, and the consensus seems to be that you're a huge jerk.
And yet you can't think of anything better to do with your weekend
than hang out with people who criticize and despise you. I wouldn't
trade one minute of my life for yours. Not one second.

Loser.
