Welcome to Changstar.


Sorry about your misuse of the term "Placebo."

"a substance or procedure… that is objectively without specific activity for the condition being treated"

Okay, how are those $5k digital interconnects working for you?

Take a look at Anetode's posts here for an idea of when the term "placebo" may be appropriate:

Don't come here looking to vent because your crusade has been cut short (which a screencap of a ban on an introduction thread sort of implies.)  Most of us are so laid back that we've fallen over in our LA-Z-Boys and can't get up.  If you're cool cool, if your blood pressure spikes every time someone suggests something without objective evidence then this is not the place for you.

I apologize. Was still pretty butthurt after being on the site for over a year and being banned over such a petty incident.

Indeed, the price of membership here seems to be an HD800.

What?  Maybe you should re-read some of my posts.  I'd much rather listen to a ksc-75 out of an ipod than an HD800 out of all the rigs I've heard them on.  Jury is still out on whether they could be listenable to me with certain amp synergy/modding.  I trust Mike and Purrin but haven't heard it myself.  I suspect they would become listenable to me but still not my cup of tea.

@BLACKENED: This is the way you do it in style:

I rather prefer nocebo instead if placebo.
FYI, many of us here actually do throw down wads a cash down a black hole. We like to do that because we can.
