Hi!
Well, this is a good question as i am often very skeptical when hifi nerds
speak out their minds.
I think that others might think of them as not very open minded.
I am not a hifi nerd in my own perspective.
But people know that i am very audio intrested and that i do want good audio
quality.
TO be honest i don’t hear some differences other might talk about and people
may or may not judge me for that or laugh at me for that but i don’t care.
I think you should try to be very open minded and very very humble and not
critisize them for having their analog system for example.
I know you do but maybe they do not think you are humble enough.
We are talking about audio like an evangelist talks about Jesus.
Its like a religion where evrything we might say is the very word.
