I don't even have to address a post to this guy and he still keeps on having his nervous breakdown!

There is a word that describes people who post to get this kind of result: troll. One interpretation of your post is an admission that you are a troll. Is this what you have in mind?

I've not replied to anything at all that he has said. Do you still think I'm trolling him?
I can't help notice you're not bothering to chide him. Why do I get the scoldings?

You are either not trolling him, or you are laughing at your hugely successful troll attempt. I do not presume to guess which it may be.When it comes to trolling, I think the best strategy is to meet the "Caesar's wife" test, i.e. not post anything that anyone could remotely perceive as a troll.

It doesn't really matter whether he's really a retard, or just pretends to be the one (most likely, he is a retard, but pretends to be significantly more retarded).
I'm sure he'll be trolling you with even more satisfaction, since you talk all nice and patient, and attempt to explain things - unlike yours truly, who absolutely can't stand dumbf..s.
Way back when, you told me I looked like a troll because I hadn't posted a system and didn't accept email. OK, I posted a system and opened my email to inmates. Not that anyone has ever commented on the system or sent me an email. No one cared. What was the point?After a weekend of abusive posts from carcass93 I started making snarky responses. You jump on that and call it trolling. Do you think "it all started when he hit me back!" is a valid excuse?
Now you are telling me what, exactly? That I shouldn't make any posts that challenge the orthodoxy here? That doing so is trolling? Many of the inmates here hold Hydrogen Audio up for ridicule, for being narrow minded and one sided. If challenging the orthodoxy here is considered trolling, then how is this place any less narrow minded and one sided?

Well actually did not notice... But looking now one can understand where you are coming from... Being honest if you could, do you really feel it is fair for you to comment negativity on what some are doing? Is your point of reference the same or even close? You are welcome to feel the way you want... But is it right to think one understands the handling are performance of an Indy car, when they drive a Yugo...
One, this is my PC system. Can you comprehend that? It's in the den. It is not the "big rig." Sorry, I'm not going to post anything more because I don't feel comfortable opening up my private life to the internet.
Two, if you don't think my PC system is revealing, then you don't know what you are talking about. I'm not saying the little JBLs are the be all and end all of speakers, but they are an astonishingly good value for how inexpensive they are. I've had them for nearly a year now and sitting in the near field I'm still consistently impressed at the details they can bring out. They are like headphones that throw a miniature sound stage on top of my desk. They could well be all the stereo a non-inmate would ever need.
Three, this is why I resisted posting a system in the first place. I post my PC system and you say it's not good enough. If I posted my big rig you would say that my ears must not be good enough. The real issue is my imagination is not good enough to allow me to "perceive" changes that don't exist in reality.

Tell you what - why don't you take your worthless crap, big and small, and get the f... outta here? There's still free registration open at Hydrogen Audio.
simply because a foul-mouthed little piss-ant like you keeps calling me names, you have sadly mistaken my character.

I have actually have listened to a pair and the speakers are not bad, especially for the price. The wave guide does some good things.
I was thinking more about using an internal sound card. This is very different from an external DAC. How can you fairly comment on things like digital cables with nothing to actually hook one up to? Who is jumping. I have had sound cards before. I have actually listened to the speakers you have, and am familiar with near field monitoring.
Think about this... What if the noise PS, EMI/RFI etc of you PC swamps any possible difference in sound in your system? IE... everything sounds the same...
"I have actually have listened to a pair and the speakers are not bad, especially for the price. The wave guide does some good things."Have you heard them in your own house? I enthusiastically recommend the LSR305s for use as PC speakers. I agree. I think that wave guide is the secret to their sound. Note however that it is crucial that you get stands that elevate the tweeters to ear level. I think the IsoAcoustics ISOL8TRS are attractive and do the job, but even a pile of bricks or books would do the job for beginning audiophiles who can't afford the extra $100 for stands.
"I was thinking more about using an internal sound card."
Actually, this is just for the PC system. Amazing as it may seem, I also own a turntable, an optical drive and an external DAC. And multiple pairs of speakers. And multiple amplification chains. Not to mention a pile of LPs and CDs and a NAS. I too am an audio enthusiast.
"Think about this... What if the noise PS, EMI/RFI etc of you PC swamps any possible difference in sound in your system? IE... everything sounds the same..."
I've linked below to the Stereophile measurement of my PC's sound card taken while inside of a PC. While not perfect (what is?) I'm fairly confident that any issues it may have, even in the torturous environment of a PC's interior, are well below the level of audibility. Notice how far down the noise and distortions are?
The whole point of my suggesting the "listener's challenge" was to demonstrate how hard it is to hear differences that are -50dB to -60dB down. I could not care less about differences that are more than -90dB down. I know you refuse to even listen to the "challenge." How about a thought experiment instead. Have you ever listened to a well set up vinyl system? Noticed how good the stereo imaging is? Now ask yourself this: how is that possible when the channel separation is on the order of -35dB down, at best? Anything below -40dB is essentially mono. If it is so easy to hear these low level signals, why don't vinyl systems all sound monophonic?

Being a moron would be another one - and being unable to judge others' motives or intentions would be another.
Not to mention that he is dead wrong about me being angry or nervous, when posting my responses to trolls and morons. He should really see/hear me angry :-).
I was responding, I thought politely, to a post from Bob_C, when carcass93 bursts in and flies off the handle at me. Let's see, what else has carcass93 said to me in the last few days.
"... to shut up a deaf f..ng retard like you for good.
$12 less, to be exact - meaning, I would do it for $400."
Or how about:
"Just to chop both of your hands off, to make you stop typing your clueless, tired, offensive, retarded nonsense.
Oh, and would have to take the tongue, too - in case you're thinking about using voice recognition software. After the surgery, worst-case scenario, we would only be subjected to something like "Ooooo.... Aaaaa.... Mmmmmmmmm.....Mmmmmmmmmmm....Mmmmmmmmmm" - which is WAY more positive contribution, than the shit you're excreting now."
Or:
"Just a garden-variety moronic troll from HydrogenAudio, crapping here, because he's bored out of his shallow mind."
Or:
"Like I said, just a moronic troll, whose rightful place is with other (non-)thinking-alike humanure (term invented by American Death Metal band Cattle Decapitation) at HydrogenAudio."
But when I hit back with a snarky remark suddenly I become the troll?
???
