Realistic sound = tubes and analogue

It also has nothing to do with this topic.

Perhaps you need to review this thread's topic.

The topic has nothing to do with my equipment, I don't own anything tube. Perhaps you should review the topic so you can stop bringing in extraneous nonsense into the thread.

I will once again agree with you. Perspective doesn't has to be limited to one's own system. Most of the best systems I've heard are not my own.

Now, look up on your screen. With Firefox, the tab clearly states the title of the topic. Can you say tubes? The topic IS "Realistic sound = tubes and analogue". The relevance to my observations is your lack of exposure to the best tube components. Your silence and protestations over backing your rhetoric with facts speaks volumes.

BTW, Happy Birthday. While we have different perspectives on audio, I really do appreciate your expertise in HT matters. Perhaps discussing our passions over a beer might work better.

Okay....

What you call observation(of which you cannot have over the internet) is really just plain old assumption. You have no idea of what equipment I have heard, you are just filling in the blanks(since I have no intention on telling you) with your own perspective, which does not have a damn thing to do with me. So there is no relevance to your observations,as your observations are uneducated and lack any fact whatsoever.

I was not silent on my observation, I was silent about my equipment. There is a difference. One is relevant to the the topic at hand, the other is not.

Thanks for the B-day wishes. I don't think we have such different perspectives on audio as we have differences on the equipment and format we choose to listen to it through.

You have no idea of what equipment I have heard...

Which is repeatedly why I ask the simple question. Most folks don't get all huffy and upset over such an impersonal topic.

...you are just filling in the blanks...

Filling in the blanks? Why would I do that? The only thing to be found from you is blanks! I assume nothing beyond the demonstrated lack of exposure.

You're welcome. That is likely correct. Borne of different priorities and exposure to different stuff.

Experience has taught me that you dismiss specifics, which is why I am not wasting my time giving it to you.

BS and you know it. You insult my intelligence with the passive/agressive BS. Again your comment on the lack of exposure is filling in the blanks, because you don't really know the depth of my exposure because I have not told you. Just because I have not told you does not mean there is a lack of experience, and by you saying this over and over, you are filling in the blanks.

You're welcome. That is likely correct. Borne of different priorities and exposure to different stuff.

Which does not mean you experience trumps mine.

Looks like someone is trying to give you the "fastest gun in the west trick"......

If you refer to Onkyo power amps, then I will continue to objectively place them into context among what is available performance-wise in the market. Just like I do my NAD receiver.

Which does not mean you experience trumps mine.

It is, however, different and most likely from a wider pool - having known three audio reviewers for over thirty years. Most guys just say "here's what I've heard". You freak out.
