Stellar streamer?

I’m not a person that tries to be confrontational. I’m just expressing my opinion.
Not sure what your agenda is but I don’t go on Schiit’s forum and say I bought a PS Audio DirectStream and it blows the Yggdrasil out of the water. No point in it.
Ok, you bought some Stellar gear and weren’t happy with what you were able to sell it for. That’s life. You bought Schiit gear and you’re happy with it. Great. Enjoy it and move on.
Do you still own PS Audio gear?? No? Then why are you hanging around the forums to tell Stellar owners how much better you find Schiit gear?
Get a life. Enjoy your new gear and leave these forums to those that own the gear and want to know how best to enjoy it.

Here, here, here!

Paul, shouldn’t that be, “Hear! Hear! Hear!”? :smile::smile::smile:

It’s funny how Internet forums can read. If one wasn’t paying attention it would look like Paul, the CEO of PS audio is saying “here, here, here” to someone else telling Chops to get a life and leave the PSA forums and scurry back to Schitt’s forums. Of course Paul was responding to the phono post, but the sequential reading appears differently, which made me chuckle.

I think Chops is being honest in his experience of Schitt vs Stellar, just lacking a bit of tact in the expression of that honesty. I’ve long considered the Schitt Freya as a good way to add a tubed, cost effective preamp in between my DSJ and S300, so I value Chops feedback on it. Schitt EQ’s have been mentioned in other threads, so the two companies seem complimentary.

Agreed, as long as we all (try to) keep respectful of each other.

For me it came down to Schiit Freya vs PSA SGCD. SGCD won it for me. Others have different experiences

I thought Paul was commenting there too… :grin:

Yes Paul’s response got a chuckle from me too. I too totally respect someone’s choice to select and own what they choose.
If I crossed the line I apologize to all here. Not my nature and I hope we can all respect each other’s right to their own opinions and hopefully know when it’s appropriate to express them.

I’m not even going to bother quoting posts and such, and it was never my intention to start arguments or say something is better than something else. All I was doing was answering questions people we asking me, nothing more.

Then I’m feeling as if my own opinions/observations are being questioned. So of coarse, I stand my ground, whether it be with tact or not. So with that in mind, lets just agree to disagree.

And for the record, I have noticed quite a few active members on here that do not own any PS Audio gear. So it’s highly inappropriate to ask me to leave the forum just because I don’t own any PS Audio gear anymore, especially if you’re just another regular forum member on here.

And lastly… Schiit doesn’t have their own forum, or I’d be on it.

So hopefully this will be the end of this.

From my perspective you haven’t broken any rules. People can be too judgmental. I speak from experience of it! After all it is a Hi-Fi Forum, an online discussion site where people can hold conversations about audio equipment, etc. not just about PS Audio products. I own 14 PS Audio products, the most unreliable equipment in decades of owning high-end audio equipment.!

Yes but when it works…it is awesome. :grin:

Duh. Yeah. Sounds like I was pointing to me!

That’s one of the things I don’t like about this forum software. It’s sometimes hard to figure out who’s responding to whom.

Someday we’ll get the damned software right……

Are you talking to me?.. :wink:

Completely appropriate, but statements such as the following are going to understandably annoy other members:

I suggest everyone remember to respect other’s experience as equally valid - even if it vastly differs from your own.

It is easy to know who is responding to whom. The response is to the user in the upper right with the arrow (here, my post responds to Paul).

If you want additional information, click on the arrow and you will bring up the past post to which the current post is responding.

No, no! I was just trying to make a joke about the spelling. As in: this is an audio forum , so the word should be “hear” instead of “here.”

Thanks, Elk I appreciate the help. However, I think it only works like that if everyone’s playing correctly, which we don’t all do (as we’re not all great users of this software). And, I answer almost everything via email and never go to the actual thread like I am now.

For example, look at this:

Stonefree1911’s post doesn’t really show who he’s referring to.

And besides, when you only look at emails…

I am just venting my minor quibbles.

True. This is because he hit Reply at the bottom of the page, not Reply attached to a post. In these circumstances one assumes he is referring to the last post in the thread just above his. But this does require a bit of a judgment call; he could be referring to the post above his or just adding something to the thread.

I do not know what it looks like when following the forum via email. I find it neat it offers this option. I have not otherwise seen this feature, although it may be available with other forum software.

Ummm probably true, but I usually do try to hit the reply on a specific post to respond to it, which I thought I did with Paul. But I might not have. I know I have hit reply to a post and it didn’t show as a specific reply, but a general one, so I don’t think it always works. Dunno, I enjoy the forums no matter what.

Yeah…like this one…looks to me like a general reply, but I hit reply to your post Elk. Ah well.
