of happy owners of the players Secrets puts down in the shootouts. That is all the proof I need for my assertions.Why don't you try proving that anything you've published matters to more than a handful of neurotic wannabe "videophiles".
Follow Ups:
Rich,A friend of mine calls this the "McDonald's argument". McDonalds sells a lot of hamburgers, and therefore it must be a great product.
It's funny that you use the term "neurotic videophiles", as the general population considers audiophilia to be equal parts neurosis and elitism.
Were someone to describe you as a "neurotic audiophile", I imagine you'd be unhappy with the characterization.
We post what we test for. We explain what it is we're looking for. Heck, we even say that if you're happy with your player, it might not be the best idea to read our report. We publish what we find, good/bad/otherwise.
As usual, though, you simply counter with inane replies lacking any substance. As that same friend I alluded to earlier would say, "What's wrong Rich, did the dog eat your science?"
Since you think it's such a disservice our readership, e-mail the editor at staff@hometheaterhifi.com and tell him how you feel. This one will undoubtedly make it into my inbox eventually when our editor forwards it out to the editorial staff.

of happy owners of Bose speakers which you would put down without mercy if you were asked to describe them. This puts a bit of a damper on that path of logic. Certainly not everyone who has a gripe about Bose is a neurotic wannabe audiophile?
I went to log in to say it, but you said it for me......Bose speakers. The ignorance is bliss logic just doesn't work for ol' Rich, does it.
***This puts a bit of a damper on that path of logic.***No, it doesn't. If your response was at all logical, I'd comment on it. It isn't, so I won't.
Wow. Just followed this thread and I'm starting to understand this person's notoriety. I'm sorry to say my namesake seems to really be flailing here. At this point any observer can see the other guys have trounced Rich's assertions convincingly. Time to root for the underdog:Rich, for the love of all that is good and right, and in the honor of
all of us named Rich, you can do better than this can't you?:-)
Rich _H_
It doesn't look like he does much better in any of the other threads he responds to either. From what I can tell, he's just a jerk. I also think, after reviewing his remarks in this thread and elsewhere, he operates on a level of inferior capacity as compared with the rest of us. As such, calling another person an idiot may be all he is capable of, when tested.I just can't decide whether to feel sorry for him, as you would for other disabled individuals possibly deserving of charity, or, whether to be really mad at him for referring to my comments as "idiocy." Right now, it's a little of both.
