    He left AQ and joined Roon and just recently left. Didn't know his history, hmm.

    His claims about computer audio regarding hard drives and RAM and so-called traffic is some of the most retarded BS I've ever heard. Either willfully ignorant or a complete liar.

    Add to that it is called demystifying digital audio, and he proceeds to completely mystify it.

    Audioquest is a convenient scapegoat for all the worst audiophool bullshit.

    Convenient and... Guilty! Go for it!

    Run-of-the-mill cable-company-bullshit-detect method...

    See if they make/sell "audio" versions of something that is already scienced to death and beyond in the real world. eg network cables

    cf Blue Jeans... who sell network cables that are simply tested/certified to-spec. At reasonable cost.

    @Thad E Ginathom, yep I'm with you. I just wonder how many burgeoning audiophiles attend a show and get scammed by this BS.

    People just love being taken in by this BS. AQ, and many other companies, are alive and well, right? And hey, if you say "Hands up everyone who has never even tried some audio bull idea," probably most of us will keep are arms down. I know I will.

    I have no opinion of the man, but some of the things he is reporting others have heard, I am in agreement with. eg. I have audibly better sound on my desktop when I turn off the plex server running in the background. But I do not agree you need race car ram and hyper fast cpus for music, that is bs. Only watched 20 min but will continue so I get the full story!
