Yes!A sound engineer doesn't need an EE diploma, but I think he needs more formal scientific knowledge than what he gets when he does the SAE.
Bullshit!Kingston said:(Also it turned out tube preamps rarely "warm up the sound", but that's another topic.)
Kingston said:Since all my progress is quite visible on the forum and often turns up in searches, it causes me unending shame. All my past audiofoolery is still very much visible in topics that are unfortunately quite popular. About weekly I have to answer private questions on those topics. Yes I was that stupid not too long a go, no I don't agree what I wrote back then anymore. :-[

JohnRoberts said:@ andy... Andy was also our resident language/grammar pedant who raised snarkiness in his slap downs to high art. His absence as language cop is/was missed, while the S/N was never as good as the very old days before it became a business that profited more from number of eyeballs than quality of participants. Fools were not tolerated in the very old days, and you had to get past the junk yard dogs.

That's pretty rare these days. The handful of people from this forum that I've met in real life (e.g. Abbey, Gyraf, Tim Campbell) were about the nicest guys you could hope to meet.
Perhaps this world would be a better place, if more people were sniffing solder fumes.
