    I dont know Pat, Geof. told me he is no longer a moderator but his status says differenly. My posts get edited, they took away my possiblity to finish the planar section and suddenly i am getting attacked by the sites long time big guys.

    Eric says he will fix a few things on monday, will see whats going to happen. But this site is not free, and noone can fault me for being biased since the owners and moderators are biased eventough they shouldnt be.

    Well Eric and i made up and i hope that he will fix this stuff on monday. I guess that i have to live with the fact that some people just dont like me, and thats fine since i dont like them either.

    Fantasy music is my own definition of music like the Oxygen Album, Blade Runner, LOTR soundtrack. Mostly a mix between electronic music and real instruemental.

    There is some very fine cuisine, wines and beers all over europe. Its great that everything is so close. 2 weeks ago i was in Zurich to visit my friend, it only takes 3 hrs to go to italy and you can take a train trip to France. My friend sells PassLabs, Eggelston Works and Avalon in italy. My friend Brad writes reviews for Positive Feedback and live in switzerland. My other buddy Allen (www.vacuumstate.com) moved to switzerland too. Just 3 weeks ago my friend Klaus and i visited our Apogeeclub member Rolf who has a pair of super Duettas with Etalon electronics. And every year we have the High End convention in munich, but unfortunatly its just the typical advertisment stuff. But there was one product that suprised me at the show which was from the Wiener Lautsprecher Manufaktur which ran with Manley electronics. The Tannoy Kingdom was nice too. If they can get the compressed sound away and make it more neutral it would be amongst my favorietes too. Quite nice indeed.

I have a opinion and i make myself heard and that takes away the attention from some other longtimers who dont like it.
    No, the problem is the persistent ramblings from your piehole that your opinions are more valid than anybody else's strictly because of what you own.

If they would have just voted and made a comment this thread it would have been fine. But here we have Wooch who goes on a rampage about my ego and personallity which is 100% wrong and one hardcore B&W fans that always recommends them 100%..and one is missing.
    No, you made this thread to once again put yourself at the center of attention, just as you did with your infamous "I hearby quit" thread. The issue has never been about your opinions and preferences, it's in your blowhard presumptions about the value of other people's opinions that might not agree with your perspective.

But i am different, recommend rare systems and if i dont like it i will say it. Some cant handle that ;-)
    But, you don't own a system like that, so stop presuming that you can put yourself into the mindset of someone who does own that kind of system. You've demonstrated time and time again an inability to separate yourself from your ingrained presumptions about the listening preferences of others.

    You're right, I don't know you as a person, but I do see what you post on this board. If you're so calm and respectful, you would never have to delete and edit your posts, nor apologize to anyone for going overboard, nor respond to disagreements by taking cheap shots at what other people own. Right, you've NEVER had to do any of those things before, have you?

    Like I said, you just don't get it, and from the looks of things, never will. Feel free to believe your own egocentric version of reality. Those of us who read the things you've posted can draw our own conclusions over what a "real person" would say, and what someone with delusions of grandeur would say.

    Well he can go there alone. Like i said, Wooch doesnt know me, and his recommendations are based on his opinions too which are no more valid or invalid as mine.

    You're right, I try not to feed the trolls. However, that would mean you're a troll, which you're not.

    You're just a mind-numbing egomaniac.

    Most of the popular music you listen to is heavily influenced by or a direct rip of off black music. That arrogance you display when discussing equipment apparantly extends to other parts of your personality. You don't like black music; then you don't like most of todays popular and rock music of which 90+% is either black oriented, black influenced or blues based which is black music anyway. I am surprised. I was inclined to be on your side especially when concerning the better sound of better equipment. Just what do you mean when you say "black music"? Since all musical notation is written in black, by definition all music is black. You sound like a closet bigot. I hope that I am wrong in that asessment. That sort of stupidity was supposed to be restricted to some of the more extreme rednecks (KKK) of the American south and Nazi's. You are not from one of the southern states of America. Please explain what you mean when you say you don't like "black" music.

    I'm assuming that he thinks "rap/hip-hop" music is "black music" but this is also a big mistake on his part. In any case he comes off as very bigoted. A very poor choice of words indeed.
