Hey Axis
Just a question about your handle. It would imply that your a nazi as this was the name that the axis powers adopted during the second world war. Are you or have you ever been a nazi? Now if you reply "no" I won't believe or disbelieve you since this would just be your opinion but it would be interesting to hear your reply. What about it. Are you a nazi?
 
Axis....Bold as Love

I don't care whether you believe me or not...because you are a worthless piss ant.

I am not implying you are a piss ant, I am not skeptical about whether you are a piss ant, it is not my opinion. It is a FACT that if you want to continue this line of bitter threads after all my explanations, all my apologies, and all the DIRECT EVIDENCE that is supplied to this forum, hoping to shed light on a WORTHLESS RUMOR. that you ARE A PISS ANT,

Fuck you you bastards ! You are very lucky that you can hide behind the distance and anonymity of the internet. Go suck Taylor Johnsons dick if you want. I just don't care. :)

1. I am not bitter. If you are bitter, thats your problem. I want to continue this, because I want you to understand what you are doing, but unfortunately you are not following my advice on how to kick-start your brain, so that has proved useless. Rest assured that you will get into these types of flamewars in the future too, since you are bent on not changing.

2. I have seen no apology from you for the things you have said.

3. This is still not a matter of evidence. It is a matter of your behaviour. You are saying things which you claim are not your intent to say. You also refuse to recorgnize that you are saying these things. Thats not particularily useful.

Fuck you you bastards ! You are very lucky that you can hide behind the distance and anonymity of the internet.

Ah, a threat of physical violence.

Go suck Taylor Johnsons dick if you want.

1. Again: I'm not gay.
2: Who is Taylor Johnson?

I just don't care.

Well, I don't see why you should care about my sexual life, although you seem very interested in it. But you SHOULD care about what you say, how you come across and the fact that you make people angry, even though you say that this is not your intent.
 
Hey Weston, I'm glad you cleared up that "Mic Shootout" article. It's been a while since I read it and I could've sworn it said something about what the Sound Room does. My bad. But that's a perfect example of why people shouldn't blindly trust a person's opinion or so-called "facts". Granted, not everyone who offers opinions do such crappy research as I do, but you get the point.

By the way, I wasn't making any disparaging comments about trusting you (or anyone else for that matter), I was making them about everyone in general. It seems that whenever there's a thread like this, everyone starts whipping out their resumes to show everyone how big their dick is. The thing is, just because someone claims a resume, we're still on a sort of "honor" system. Either I believe that a guy has recorded six Doobie Brother's albums, or I think the guy is a total liar. In a lot of the cases around here I've heard the music that is coming out of the studios and so that helps me determine how much I trust that person's opinion. In the long run, it still really doesn't matter to me what a guy on the internet says...I'll listen to it myself. I use this BBS as a place for ideas. If I'm in the market for a large diaphram condenser, I'll look at RTT & Oktavas, because now I'm aware of them.

By the way...glad the album is coming along. I hope to hear some cuts when you get them up.
 
Still Keeping The Piss Out

Thank You kindly for replying and presenting an answer to my question(s), The Axis. I think I understand or see your point of view now; well, as much as I am going to understand and see anyhow. And I MOST DEFINTELY respects that.

*I*, personally, don't take information of THIS nature from "legal representives" to whom the matter GREATLY concerns and whom I haven't delt with on a business OR personal level, ANY more valid or legit than MOST information coming from "third-parties"; ESPECIALLY when those "third parties" have earned my respect in the past; or from other "legal representives" to whom the matter GREATLY concerns and whom I've delt with on a business or personal level, AND whom those "third-parties" who've earned my respect, have delt with as well.

For me, I don't care if Taylor Johnson and The Sound Room have been accused of such. From MY experiences AND from "third-party" experiences to whom have earned my respect, AND from "third-party" experiences to whom I haven't idea who they, BUT who overwhelming have had the same GREAT AND POSITIVE experiences I have with Taylor Johnson and The Sound Room, the accusations don't get me to question one bit; as if they were never brought-on. I haven't ANY reason to.

Also, yes, I have been on the defensive from the beginning of this thread. Overly? I'll admit that. But when someone comes in saying what they were, I have a right to be. The defensive part of my response (which I know was most) was directed at that ONE individual; and the conflict resolved on the first page. I did NOT plan or WANT it to become one of the fuels for fire (or pissing for that matter) or paths that got this thread off track, but others took it for what it was NOT; my previous response clarifies what it SHOULD have been taken as; as well as tdukex's response on it.

I Thank You ALL who've read what I've said here in this thread to clarify my initial responses; EVEN if you DON'T really give a shit. Or at all!
 
CMiller and Others I Suppose

And I didn't take it as such.

I'm glad to have introduced people to Oktava and RTT and The Sound Room, and 797 Audio, and others; now if I could just get you guys turned-on to DaviSound... Hehe. I work for them too... HA! BELIEVE me you, I truely HOPE you try for yourself before buying. I've ALWAYS encouraged this. And to tie it to what this thread is about, buy one ot two Oktavas from The Sound Room and compare them everything you can and REALLY take some time!
You may find you like a different mic(s) over them. Then simply return the Oktava mics from The Sound Room.
Taylor has ALWAYS encouraged this as well. It's sort of "forceful" in his return policy. Something about if the mics are returned BEFORE 20 days from purchase, a resocking fee will be add... He told me this is because anything less than 20 days is NOT an ample amount of time to REALLY try and compare. Now does THAT sound like a sales man or an engineer talking?

The "FACT" is that I recommend the Oktava MC-012s from The Sound Room SO much is that's about the MAX MOST people want to pay here. Though as time goes by and as mics get cheaper and cheaper, the lower the MAX people are willing to pay. I've said it before. You want to talk about Neumann or Josephson Engineering or Schoeps or MBHO or Hebden or Manley or Sony or AEA or ANY other company? Lets! There HAS been a few times people have the money to spend "what it takes". And I HAVE given them a shit-load of possibilities and then narrowed then down for them as to not be TOO overwhelming. You tell me the budget. I reaveal ALL the possiblities I know (when I have the time) and tell my recommedation. If the MC-012s from The Sound Room DIDN'T have 3 different caps, I sure wouldn't be recommending them NEARLY as much over mics such as the Shure SM81 or SO many more in that price range. But they DO, and THAT makes then SO universal which we ALL know is such a PLUS; ESPECIALLY when your on quite a limited budget and can afford only a few mics; or maybe your ONLY mics other than a 57 or two; which you ALL already have, right?

OK, I think I'm rambling now. Sorry.
 
REGE-BRO:

That is my final answer. Have fun.

Peace to all,
I will be more careful in the future.
Thanks,
Rick

Excellent. Good luck!
 
I will be more careful in the future...

I will be more careful in the future to not release factual information to defensive, unreceptive morons.

(of course this is only an insult if you actually are a defensive, unreceptive moron.....like you, Rege.)


Bye
Rick
 
Wow... I just want to say that while I usually read posts to learn things, this one beats all others I've seen hands down for sheer entertainment value.

You obviously do not have the mental capacity to listen to other people. It should be tragic, but the way you constantly accuse others of your own faults actually makes me laugh. The only one here that is bitter, stupid, unreceptive and defensive are you.

Man, your pathetic. Heres my 2 cents: Buy yourself a better brain.

I love irony !
Entertainment value is the only reason I still visit this thread.
Peace to all who want to decide the facts for themselves.
 
You aren't surprising at all.

But anyway: Thanks for helping keep this near the top, where people can read the facts and make their own decisions.
 
Who but a lazy ass college student like me with way too much free time would bother to read this thread? a.) if the mics from the Sound Room sound better, buy them. b.)if they're stolen, and this is common knowlegde, I believe I, as the legal representitve for Oktava, would do something about it. And if they don't have enough proof to do so, then they shouldn't throw around unfounded allegations. The Axis, I actually agree with you, but you are quite an ass about getting your point across.
 
OK

JFogerty:

I admit that I have been quite crude and rude.
I feel that I did not get rude and crude with anyone until as a defensive reaction to those who were first rude and crude to me. I hope you will notice that I have refrained from being rude and crude to those who may disagree with me, but express their disagreement in a rational manner.

I have reread the series of posts a couple of times to see where I went wrong. It still seems to me that I kept insisting on corroboratable facts, and some others reacted against that with an emotion defense of their "friends:"

I can't help it if I am a lot smarter than some of the crude morons so that my insults seem nastier. :)
 
Dammit. This is to everyone, I am Its JFogarty, not Fogerty. that would be John Fogerty, I'm Joe FogArty. No relation. Spelled with the E, its northern Irish, and usually a protestant name, with the A its southern Irish, and normally Catholic.
 
I am skeptical of that claim.

hmmmmm.......

You *claim* to be Catholic. Yet the FACTUAL evidence is that you say "Dammit" (I direct violation of a Commandment).
Is there any way you can corroborate your claim ? Is there an authorized representative of the Catholic Church willing to corroborate your "story" in publicly published documents ?
I *suspect* you may be working for the Oktavian Cult. They worship a mysterious entity known only as "Mike". (Albeit a Holy Trinity of: "Mike the Omni", "Mike the Cardioid" and "Mike the HyperCardioid")

Just a warning "Mr. FogArtypants" (or whatever your name REALLY is), I won't let go of this until the FULL STORY IS TOLD !

HAHAHAHAHAHA. Well, OK. a.) I never said I was Catholic b.) I was raised catholic, but I'm an atheist, and I think that counts me out. c.) I think you are getting just a wee bit paranoid from reading this silly and pointless (to us at least) thread. lastly d.).........................................................the truth is out there.................

My intent is not to be surprising, but to try to get you to understand. That is only possible if you want to listen, which you so far has not done.

But anyway: Thanks for helping keep this near the top, where people can read the facts and make their own decisions.

I have told you several times that my comments has nothing to do with the facts of the Sound Room octavas, but with what you are saying and how you are behaving.

I admit that I have been quite crude and rude.

Excellent. Progress, at last.

I feel that I did not get rude and crude with anyone until as a defensive reaction to those who were first rude and crude to me.

Then you need to re-read my posts. I have pointed out several places where you say things that are rude, even though that may not have been your intention.

It still seems to me that I kept insisting on corroboratable facts, and some others reacted against that with an emotion defense of their "friends:"

Which is not what happened. You still need to read my posts, something it seems you never did. Stop being defensive, and read what it says. I do not understand why that is so impossible to do.
