| Romy. I understand the dilemma. People sometimes lend things to me to listen to them. I like having the opportunity to hear these things and sometimes to broaden my understanding. Publically available or not, I wouldn't express a view unless asked to. Its like the true cost of the loan but respecting such confidentiality is a price I'm happy to pay to satisfy my own curiosity. Fortunately, my opinion isn't really worth anything to anyone other than me. Yours is, whether you like it or not. |

You look at the things too narrow and still you look from a perspective of environment where audio critiques are delicacy instead of to be a regular meal.
No one cares about your or my expressed opinions if there is an open opinions pool. Only in the environment of closeness, “conspiracy” and confidentiality there are opinion makers and there are people who willing to put the, on a position to manage opinions. It was one of the subject against which I am aiming this thread.
It is a public unit and since Weiss is one of the leader of own class it should have public exposure. Mr. Weiss is a very normal person with perfectly healthy perception of the things. When he designed his unit he made many public inquires about desirable futures of his DAC and publicly explained what he was doing. It would be interesting to hear what he thinks about the performances of his DAC, in comparing to his competitors but the stupid industry removed microphone from the people who shell talk and stack it to the hands of reviewing imbeciles. I would like to hear what Lavry and others thinks about Weiss. I would like many Weiss user to express their views on Weiss as well. why not? In an environment of open, honest and no-fear sharing of perceptions it might be no stupid “opinion stars” but rather a healthy opinions competition, the competition for more reasoning, more rational and more evolved reference points. That is something that I would call an “environment of healthy public critiques” and it the way how it should be.
Everything else is just crap where the people in-compliance turn themselves inot crap. If you look at your colleges in industry, or at those who willing to behave like the are in the industry then you will know what I mean.
