That's the reason I never came back to Head Fi. Those pseudoscience and the Tyll and NwAvGuy drama.

All forums have their bias (just like news sources) so separating the wheat from the chaff is what you need to do. Head-Fi has better discussions on specific headphones than Reddit given its typical forum layout. But that means it does have more audiophile woo woo like this. SBAF, Reddit, and ASR have their drawbacks too.

I still browse head-fi from time to time, especially since they tend to have more information on higher end or obscure items. But then there’s posts like these where people go completely overboard. They’ll mod their headphones, amp, DAC, PC trying to chase those 1% improvements. I’m just like… maybe you need to change something else in your life and not your setup if you’re not enjoying it 😬
