I have been following the series of messages between mikek and Fred with growing incredulity. At first I was getting depressed and upset by the unending stream of insults mikek has been directing at fred. But now that mikek has been sinbinned, I am starting to wonder.
Mikek seems to have real knowledge of audio design issues. Fred also has real electronics chops. Yet they have been going after each other hammer and tongs accusing each other of being rank beginners with no understanding of anything. This seems extreme, even for guys that are emotionally charged.
Fred, come on now, is mikek is one of your sock-puppets? Are you just doing this so we will all come to your defenses? If so what an incredibly well done scam. In fact it if this is what was happening I don't even really mind that I got suckered too. People have wondered if you have turned into the Stepford Fred, is this just your way of blowing off steam without getting banished? If so just say the word and every so often I will be glad to senselessly savage you. It's the least I can do.
We now release control of your TV. You can now return to your regularly scheduled programming.
