Ive ranted about this before. I hate how popular this story was. Its some random rear end guy on audioholics telling a story about a test he conducted. What a great source... if he had reported that the monster cables sounded great everyone would have discredited it, but because hes saying they couldnt tell the difference between monster cable and a coat hanger its quoted everywhere. Those monster cables are also the cheapest of their "speaker cables" in terms of terminated with banana plugs + techflex. If someone bought the monster cable 1000 speaker cables i wouldnt hate on them, they just wanted something that looked okay and had banana plugs and didnt want to do it themselves. Im not saying that higher end monster cables are in any way worth it, but of all the monster cables to be demonized they choose arguably the best bargains out there?

A much much better story is when mike lavigne ( http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?vaslt&1036349020&read&3&4& ) had his transport opus $70,000 speaker cables replaced with $200 monster cables and couldnt tell the difference. This test was held by a friend of his on AVS forum. Mike lavigne confirmed the story. Maybe ill find a link to it later

If you are willing to pay $100 for a pair of cables, excuse me, audio interconnects, that do the same job as a much cheaper alternative (not necessarily coat hangers, but actual run-of-the-mill cables), then you should be prepared to be ridiculed. Who's going to see them anyway?

They arent interconnects, consumerist doesnt know what theyre talking about. Monster cable 1000 come in flavors of speaker cables, interconnectors, hdmi, probably component cables too, they were comparing speaker cables not interconnects.

That's a helluva premium to pay for the sake of appearance.
So if they're paying that much more for cable that looks good/can't be arsed to make it themselves/actually think it's noticeably better, they should expect to be ridiculed.
I'm not going to claim to be an audiophile of any sort, and I'm pretty positive you know more about this stuff than I do, but I always thought the general consensus among the sane was that the Monster cable you buy in stores such as Best Buy, Monster charged far more than they should for cabling that isn't really noticeably better than the el cheap-o stuff?

Let's try this from the other side.

You're all fairly rational individuals re: the audiophile stuff. What do you think the rational ceiling is for the cost of a private, one-chair listening room?

In other words, at what price point are you just wasting money/be unable to tell a difference double-blind? Equipment would include a SACD or other source, receiver/amp, interconnects, speaker wire, and of course a pair of speakers. YOu can assume we already have a chair.

I'm betting $1000-1500. Just guessing though, wouldn't be able to give examples of equipment.

Well, in my opinion the money should go into the acoustics of the room first, then the speakers, then the amp, then the source gear, then the cables.

Assuming the use of competent gear, the biggest factors are room acoustics and speakers. An extremely live (or extremely dead) room with lots of resonant frequencies is going to ruin the sound of any speakers you use. Speakers are the most variable piece of actual gear in the chain - different frequency response characteristics, speaker size/number/composition being some big variables between different speakers.

You could easily spend $10,000 on the room, $15,000 on some B&W 801D speakers, and use some basic pro gear (say, a QSC amp and Denon pro CD player) and some homemade cables (Belden cable with Neutrik or Switchcraft connectors) for everything else and you'll hear a world of difference between that and a random room with $1000 speakers with the same basic pro gear.

Right now I'm listening to Polk R20 bookshelf speakers through an Onkyo TX-SR304 and a Creative E-Mu 1212m sound card. In another room I have Infinity Reference 4s and a Kenwood VR-407 that I mostly use for listening to records with a vintage Technics D3. I've heard much better, but it's all I can afford at home and it sounds pretty decent for normal listening and at levels that won't disturb my neighbors.

You just answered your own question. IMO if someone claims they're looking for the best sounding equipment, they haven't wasted their money as long as they can actually tell which equipment they think is actually better sounding in a double-blind test. The point at which this happens is going to vary from person to person -- there's no objective ceiling to it.

Where audiophiles veer from rationality isn't in what gear they buy or how much money they spend, it's in claiming "X is different from Y" but refusing to validate that claim under controlled conditions. If you do a double-blind test of $10,000 speaker cables vs. $250 speaker cables and consistently choose the expensive cables as the better-sounding ones, by all means, spend the $10k if the difference is really worth that much to you.

A building supply/rat's nest of recycled construction business my work frequents got a gutted house from some weird audiophile.

The guy's interior was taken out and preserved thinking they could resell it.. its these monstrous room islands made of 3/4" MDF covered with fake grey birds eye maple veneer. The guy made crazy custom furniture enclosures for his giant powered Infinity speakers, his two matching rear projection TVs and tons of other gaudy poo poo.

There's a lot more to it than the components used. Uwe Boll uses the same equipment that other filmmakers use, but makes shithouse films. The specs that count aren't the ones of the chips, it's the end result. Compare the specs sheets between the dbx PA DriveRack and the Berhringer and the only one that gives specs that even make sense or aren't misleading is the dbx.

A Crown XTi is far from a pro amp. Up until recently it had a huge failure rate due to the dodgy, DSP, and they don't put out anywhere near their rated power. Bench tests for the supposed 4000 model are abysmal. It also sounds a bit like somebody's taking a piss when the sensitivity is up.

If you want to look at PA amps for home use, check out Chevin Research. They're discontinued but the quality of the sound is unbeatable.

I'm hardly Behringer's biggest fan, and use DBX processing myself. However the PA model of DriveRack is utter crap, and they're only viable options when you get the 260 or above.

Behringer make an awful lot of poo poo but the DCX is actually a blinding bit of kit for the money, and to best it in terms of processing and signal quality you have to spend a fair bit more for say a BSS OmniDrive or an XTA DP series- which in my experience is worth it simply to avoid the sneers at the badge on the front and to never have to use the god awful UI.

I was fairly surprised to see audiophiles all over the DCX, because I thought they'd be more into spunking a few grand on say an XTA DP448 or Dolby Lake instead of a couple of hundred on some cheap Chinese tat.

How is preserving your hearing a bad thing? Wearing earplugs in noisy environments makes a lot of sense. The amount of white noise you get while driving is pretty impressive.

Most of the long term damage is by aging and being exposed to loud noise over a long period which, if you go to concerts or have a really lovely vehicle or hang out next to jackhammers all day, will leave you deaf as hell late in life. Or, if you're a raver, deaf as hell early in life.

A pair of 20+dB reduction earplugs makes a huge difference in your quality of life and I'm surprised that more folks don't use them. I've done so consistently for years and refuse to go to concerts or any other high noise environment without them. Seeing some band live is no reason to lose my ability to hear them ten and twenty years down the road.

Rant on protecting your hearing complete.

Back to laughing at "audiophiles" and their craziness. I think some of the higher end gear costs a bundle because it is hand-built and uses much nicer materials than stuff you get from an assembly line somewhere. I think there is a reasonable amount of excess you can indulge in to get good looking speakers and amps and such that scream out "Hey, I spent a bunch of disposable income on my home speaker system because I'm rich as hell and all you poors can go suck it." Conspicuous consumption drives some of this so you'll see folks with jobs that give them loads of money try to one-up their competition by buying even more retarded setups.

They're doing a similar contest in D&D involving freepers, so I thought it could be fun if we applied this to the only other group I know that's completely devoid of logic or reason.

The basics:
1. Register an account on an audiophile forum like head-fi
2. PM me your account name
3. Post ridiculous poo poo without getting banned
4. If you get other people to agree with you, you win. The most outrageous stuff wins a prize (I'll probably do the top three or something).
5. If you get banned, or outed as a troll/making poo poo up, you lose.
6. If you manage to get a legitimate user banned as a troll, you win.

I'll sticky this thread or a new one just like it. Don't post anything in TA/VA that would get you banned on the other forum; someone will probably find it.
