Re: This forum

Hi,

After reading Steve a bunch of times and wondering where he was
coming from...I wouldn't call it subjective/objective...it looks
more like a global/local argument.

The local point of view means that a component has the potential
to make a difference to an individual. Putting a picture of your
stereo in the refrigerator might make a difference to some people.

But I think instead of going from the subjective position to the
objective one, I think going from the local point of view to the
global point of view makes more sense. The global point of view
holds that a particular component makes a difference to all
individuals. This is a harder position to argue from and it seems
to me that it should also require more rigor. It would be harder
to convince the majority that putting a picture of your stereo in
the refrigerator makes any difference.

One side question is does it make the same difference to all
individuals. I don't think that it can because all systems start
from a particular coloration which individuals may not be aware
of.

My 2 cents
