Why is audiophile technology so cringe?
It's designed to attract and scam the most braindead imbecile
>>106498128Because boomers buy stupid shit. The entire generation conflates wealth and status with intelligence and wisdom and they're the most intellectually bankrupt generation in recorded history.
>>106498622more like to scam rich people. go into any headphone or iem thread and every recommendation will be dirt cheap. being an audiophile hasn't been about mindlessly wasting money for like a decade now, its a dead stereotype only used by people who want to cope about using shitty headphones. the best iems are like $15 and the best headphones are like $130
>>106498128>Your $14k cd player display, Sir.
>>106498128it is possible to sansa clip 2x tda fullrange speakers that fit into your palmyou should not buy over 28V ac anyways
>>106498128It's not just cringe, it's also straight up dogshit. Vibe engineering before AI.
>>106498128>>106499065This. Why has CD audio replay tech regressed to badly in the recent years (decades)?Where the FUCK is my CD-text capable SACD player that is of respectable build quality that is also reasonably priced?!How am I supposed to play my newly acquired CD's (that one time before ripping them all) for maximum enjoyment, if I can't do it on overengineered piece from the last century?
>>106499038Those threads are just broke neets larping.
>>106499065>I need a 10" oled touchscreen that runs android for my CD player!

>>106500041do you perhaps want to turn error correction off its possible but you might not like it
I feel bad for the plebs who will never experience the joy of listening to their favorite dad rock records through the McIntosh, it's a superlative experience, only rivalled by the time I bought my CD shaver for superior light transmission, or installing a new electricity pole to reduce background hum, or switching to digital inputs and outputs on everything, or that 10 grand I spent on bags of magic rocks from that shifty guy behind the pub.
>>106500751>>106500764No, I want _more_ fancy gizmos and not less behind-the-scenes crap that'd make my experience worse. CD-text capable display, spectrum/levels indicators, tracks diagram, track quick access keyboard, play order programmer, repeat button, headphone amp with volume control, display dimmer, VFD display and more.I want to feel like Premium User again.
>>106500884i have not tried if one cd-player delay works in non karaoke-cds
>>106500675If I pay 14K for an appliance, that should make me coffee, do my laundry and have a biomechanical vagina.And yes, it should have a screen to at least have a playlist.
