I will give an example of what I mean. I do not agree with your claim that the Marantz will give "great sound" and the NAD will only give "good sound". I would be willing to bet, if neither is malfunctioning, and if both are kept within their operating limits, you would not be able to hear any difference at all between then in a properly conducted double blind test. So, although I agree that the Marantz is the one to buy, I do not agree with all of your claims. I think you are making excessive claims regarding the differences.
Given your reaction, I regret having mentioned you at all. But the reason I did mention you, however, was because I thought that your excessive praise might cause someone to discount your remarks altogether. Remember, I do agree completely on which one should be purchased.
That is your personal opinion, and I respect it, and I don't even comment on it.
Same as my post, it was my personal opinion, but you criticise it. It's OK, nothing wrong with criticising, as long it is respectful and from good meaning, if you know what I mean.
I don't want to go into this as to which one sounds best, because for you they both sound best, which is very fine by me. But I love to be allow to express my own opinion to the person that I'm talking to, which is Soundman.
I don't know if you understand what I'm saying.
To help you, just put yourself in my shoes, the shoes of an old fart that spend way too much time with audio, and just happen to know a thing or two, that he can share with others.
That's quite simple. Me, I call that respect without a doubt to the people in the know.
I read very good between the lines, that's my job. I'm a pro at what I'm doing.
I ain't perfect, but I sure try hard to.
If I feel respected by others, I'll give my heart and soul to them. I gotta lot a luv to give. I need to get it out. I need help to get that luv out of my system.
Comprende?
That's all there is to it, nothing else matter more than true LOVE. Jesus was my brother, and he gave his love and blood for me, and you also. Is this, counts for something?
Anyway, sorry that I talk the talk, but my heart told me to.
Now, are you gonna walk the walk with me?
Cheers & you have a gorgeous and lovely day,
Sincerely, Bob
