See i cant change it. Its the way humans tend to work. And its somehow funny how we humans tend to work.
I don't particularly want to give them the clicks though. I mean they are making money of the exercise right?
Some more or less, sure. I have not to pay the clicks. So watching a littel humoristic comedy for free is imo, ok. And sometimes you can see new gear thats maybe interesting.
Lets just look at the reviews of the rp600m. Nearly all did them. Not one of that clown noses complained about a hole as big as the South Pole-Aitken Basin in the midrange. The same people like to tell you how good amp A vs B sounds. Its a show. They enjoy the show, the manufactures enjoy the show. And the audience too.
Sure, whatever. I don't enjoy the show. shrug
I mean the words coming out of most people’s mouths is twaddle, I just choose to ignore it or be entertained by it.Sorry, I just cannot do it for entertainment if the words coming out of their mouths are Twaddle. Which is almost bound to happen from the entertainer cohort.
Not being argumentative, but are there well recorded recordings in these genres? Truly curious.Black Metal, Death Metal and Grindcore mostly.
You’re not wrong, gimmicks sell on YT, lol.I have the editor (daughter) but even getting a corner looking pretty… and even worse if I want to show equipment in action.
Yeah, the clown nose still seems the best option.
Tool isn’t metal. It’s Prog rock. And a very let’s say special kind of progNot being argumentative, but are there well recorded recordings in these genres? Truly curious.
I like metal like Tool, and they are generally well recorded. I also love Alice In Chains, my favorite band, and they were not that well recorded (maybe the Unplugged album and the more recent albums).
Like in any other genre, sure. Cryptopsy is a good example. If you want older stuff, Atheist is another good case.Not being argumentative, but are there well recorded recordings in these genres? Truly curious.

I think they both work well. Cheap audio man shows you what is out there. Like these little class D desktop amp things. Amir shows us which one we should actually buy. I would have no idea about some products without the cheapness.I liked cheap audio man until I found this site. Realistically he probably is one of the best resources for most people though since he recommends a lot of the same products that receive favourable reviews by Amir as well.
Meh, one man's metal is another man's prog rock...Tool isn’t metal. It’s Prog rock. And a very let’s say special kind of prog
There are way too many excellent recordings in black metal nowadays.Not being argumentative, but are there well recorded recordings in these genres? Truly curious.

Deathspell omega is so good. I wasn't sold on death metal, but their style really stuck with me even though they're basically mainstream at this pointThere are way too many excellent recordings in black metal nowadays.
Arcturus, deathspell omega, rotting christ, primordial.. all of them have seriously good production.
Septic Flesh on death metal..
Tool is not really 'metal' . Although I love this band
Pretty much anything on Norma Evangelium Diaboli is quite well produced and mastered; even stuff intended to sound very low-fi such as Teitanblood (Purging Tongues is a good case). World Terror Committee has quite good standards too as seen in Acherontas (not a band I really like, but production is good production) or Abigor.Deathspell omega is so good.

Edit: I obviously mean black metal lol
Speaking of old vintage speakers. I have seen three or four pieces of this man's , Kelvin,videos.
Kelvin can be 100% trusted that he always chooses vintage speakers over new ones. New that he, by the way, extremely rarely likes.
100% subjective listening impressions. Sometimes interspersed with incorrect technical analyzes. It's almost like it's a parody of subjective HiFi yuotubers, but I think his videos are serious.
In his way of seeing it, serious that is.
Edit:
He thinks as he thinks about how speakers should sound. Of course he can do that, it's subjective.In any case, I do not think he is sponsored and is thus honest in his reviews.
I can take subjectivity. In anyway, I get to heard them in hifi show.Speaking of old vintage speakers. I have seen three or four pieces of this man's , Kelvin,videos.

And what did you think? Now that we are on the subjective track.I can take subjectivity. In anyway, I get to heard them in hifi show.
My late wife was pushing me hard to start doing videos. I resisted because I really don't like the genre. Now my daughter has taken up the idea.
Me: "Here's the problem: I don't have a great look, I don't have a good voice, and the room is a wreck."
Liz: "Well, you could put on a rubber clown nose?"
I think that is a trait of an excellent salesperson; be absolutely certain of your perspective and the customer will follow you. And when it comes down to it most of them are just salespeople.Unfortunately, I know there's all these people who actually buy the crap the guy is selling...and I can read their comments too. It's just too frustrating and I'm better off not going in at all. If I want comedy I'll watch some John Mulaney.
I find it very odd that most of them (the Guttenbergs and Darkos etc) have such un-wavering confidence in their subjective assessments. I mean even back in my darkest days of audiophoolery I was never very sure of any of my impressions when I would listen to gear and try and make comparisons. "Does this sound better with these new cables than the old ones? I think maybe so??? I'm not sure...yes it does...or does it?? hmmm." To me, their lack of any skepticism about the conclusions they are reaching is a sure sign that they can't really be trusted.
With most they really are just infomercials; unfortunately a lot of people don't realize that is what they are watching.I just can’t see the funny side of innocent people being lied to, especially when their money is at stake.
The fact that information is coming second to the cult of personality only makes it worse.
