Regardless of which newsgroups a thread might inhabit, Krooger is a
compulsive liar. As soon as somebody offers the slightest disagreement
with anything he has posted, you can forget about the thread offering
further useful information. It will degenerate quickly into one of
Krooger's infamous "never admit error" last stands against logic.
There are a multitude of examples of this scenario littering the
Usenet archive.

So if you, or anybody, thinks Krooger has offered useful information,
my advice is to retain what you believe is useful, and not to correct
his omissions, misstatements, or deceptions. It's not worth it.


I conclude that Mr Krueger is telling the truth in this thread at least,
since AFAICS no-one here has contradicted a single detail in any of his
replies to me, either publicly or privately. If anyone has a technical or
subjective opinion (either in agreement with Mr Krueger or in opposition to
him) about PCs vs CD players then put up or shut up. I have no interest in
your personal animosities, which seem to have nothing to do with the merits
of audio equipment.

What I meant by "tweaking" was that he loves to provoke you guys.

I'd be surprised if you really don't know the common usage of "ad hominum"
(it's used all the time in these groups) but just in case, it's Latin for
"to the man" which means, obviously, a personal attack.

I respect Mr. Krueger for his technical abilities and contributions to

the
technical groups. I've even defended him on occasion. But over in
rec.audio.opinion, he's a different guy. Takes delight in tweaking some

of
the people there, including Middius, and it's true he sometimes just

won't
let something go. Like I said, he obviously just enjoys tweaking these
people. It can be humorous but it just goes on and on.


Better not let your other hero, the estimable Fecklebeans, hear you
glorifying "tweaking". You'll get thrown out of the Morons' Club.

I quit RAO due to all the ad hominum attacks.


I can only guess what you mean by "ad hominum". You've already shown
you love to distort language beyond recognition (using "tweaking" for
"lying"). Does it have anything to do with your mother?

That is not Krooger's motivation.

You're being dumb on so many levels that I'll just observe I've
corrected your lame top-posted response, and leave you to ponder your
own MVP error average.

Middius reads minds as part of his general omniscience.

Animosities are all that they've got to play with.

Please reply with evidence of the last time you ever fixed a broken piece of
electronic equipment, other than just dumb luck, and/or the last time you
actually helped someone having a technical problem, other than just dumb
luck.

Have you any technical qualifications at all? If so, then why do we never
see any evidence of same?

BTW I prefer top-posting. **** off if you don't like it.

Why, therefore, would any consumer pay more than this
for a home CD replay system. eg From memory the Linn CD12 retails for around
£12,000 and presumably the people who buy it are happy with the
value-for-money when they listen to the music.


Ppl that have the kind of money to spend on kit like that have to spend it on
something I guess !

I suppose you're buying into the 'dream' as extolled by clever marketing.

No doubt the CD12 is well engineered - but really !

Top-posted. Waah.

I got curious and Googled the terms "Thanks Arny", "Thanks Mark", Thanks
"Middius".

The large majority of pertinent results were positive "thank you's" for Arny
and myself for actually helping people with their problems. I dare say the
same was not true for Mr. Middius.

I'll wait for the usual vulgar attack from him, then probably just killfile
him (again). Not worth raising my blood pressure even one point.
