A nice Deputy down here said "Attorneys are lier's, judges are X attorneys, and if the judge does enough favors they become promoted to legislature". Attorney does sound right; my dad is so full of crap he believes his own crap.;)

Ben, one of my friends on the board sent me a PM yesterday, or I wouldn't have noticed this(very little of my internet time is spent here, most is on another audio board or an investment board where I give legal or financial advice). I've greatly appreciated good investigatory work in helping to put the bad guys away, but a couple observations: you assumed that K. related to a last name rather than my middle initial; although you posted in it after you joined us, you apparently didn't check the "What do you do for a living?" (http://www.polkaudio.com/forums/showthread.php?p=473492#post473492) thread to see if there might be some info on one of the more senior members. Incidentally, both science and law teach you to keep a mind open for solid evidence but not to take other stuff seriously in making a judgment.

The possible i.d. with Mr. Kreskovsky was rather flattering, since he seems to be a very bright guy judging from his published scientific papers. Haven't heard anything about his speaker design, though. If you make one, give us a review.

Hey John. Actually I was doing research on speaker design, and it came up with a link to that web site with "John K". I wasn't looking for anything about you. I don't go looking for info on people I don't really care what they have to say. When I see that you have posted I almost never read what you have to say. I like to hear opinions from other people that believe there is more to music, and life than "science and law teach you to keep a mind open for solid evidence but not to take other stuff seriously in making a judgment":rolleyes: . I haven't seen any research paper that tells me that Fleetwood Mac is an excellent talented group, but they are IMHO. Your approach to audio cracks me up. I am quick to point out that I had many similar beliefs to you when I started this hobby:o . There are no "scientific papers" that can tell me what other people can, or can not hear.

Don't flatter yourself 95% of what comes out from you on this forum here is BS. Why the F would I want to research BS.

In general I really don't like lawyers. If you are not the typical lawyer please do not read any further.







Have a nice day, and go F somebody:)

"The NaO IIt

Hehehehe his speakers are built by Mike Hunt. :D


I actually work with Michael Hunt at Westinghouse. His NaO II speakers would leave most of you with your jaws on the floor. He lives about 2 miles from me. I hang out with him regularly. BTW, Mike is around 50 and has a 29 year od girlfriend that would make Strong Bad drool.

Kreskovsky's di-pole speakers are quite amazing and won an amateur DIY contest several years ago. They are among some of the highest respected DIY speakers available today. Michael's crossover for example contains Mundorf Gold, Sonicaps, Mills resistors and Cardas Litz wire. The workmanship and sound reproduction rivals anything you could find for $10 - $15K. Michael has people emailing him from al over the East Coast anxious to hear his high end DIY speakers.

I send Michael an email to this thread, he got a kick out of it.

You may also want to contact Kreskovsky if you are a DIY speaker kind of guy. This guy has a lot of experience, and is happy to talk high end audio with you!

[WilliamM2]

Wow Ben, you start a thread about him, and he explains that it is not him, in a polite manner no less.

You reply back to him with insults on his profession, and tell him he is full of BS.

Good Job!:rolleyes:

[schwarcw]

BTW, the NaO's are not cheat to build, be prepared to spend more than a new pair of Polk 1.2 TL's would cost. Figure $5K on the low end. Depending on the kind of wood you would like, you could spend a fortune.

Ben,

I would sned Joh Kreskovsky an apology, you are way out of line here. This guy is no idiot. In fact if you want to learn something about speaker design, this guy has probably forgotten more than you'll ever know. I fully support your projects and I admire your creativity and willingness to try some thing different. But Ben, you are way out of line here. Treat people the way you want to be treated, that's the only way you'll earn respect.

I started a thread asking if this was him.
I don't "typically like lawyers"(I have meet some nice lawyers out there that actually give a rats ass about people more than their pockets)
I said If he wasn't a typical lawyer "please do not read any further"
He was insinuating that I was fallowing his BS trail.
Have you ever read his posts?


What ever.

[ben62670]

Ben,

I would sned Joh Kreskovsky an apology, you are way out of line here. This guy is no idiot.

Dude lay off the sauce.
Why would I sned an apology to the guy who makes speakers?:D
and not our John K

To show you had some class.

[ben62670]

To show you had some class.

Please read slowly, and open minded.
The guy who makes speakers is not the guy who is our John K.

To clarify things our John K I know nothing about except what I read in his post.(which I rarely read anymore. its repetitive)

I do not know our John K personally.

I get along with just about everyone I meet.

Because I do not share his views does not make him a bad guy.

If I actually met him I am pretty sure I would get along with him.

I used to believe what he continually post here.

I have seen the light, and now I don't share the same views.

I do not dislike him as a person.

I do believe what he post about AUDIO is BS.

Thats all folks

I just saw this thread and never once in that guys page did I think it was you. I don't think you could put those words on the web page together into a real sentence. OH...also... you have friends on this site?

Mike, Mr Hunt gets teased like you can't imagine. We leave him crank messages on his machine. I'm surprised he can keep his sense of humor. I was on a conference call with him on Friday with a female Marketing engineer. She keep saying Mike Hunt and you could hear the muffled laughter during this call. I don't thisnk she got it. He's actually Ukrainian, born in Florida to an American father. Great guy! He's got a kick ass audio system. He's a big DIY guy speakers, DACs, etc.

Perhaps because her name is Ophelia Balls!!!:eek:

His NaO II speakers would leave most of you with your jaws on the floor. I have not heard these but reports from others say they rank right up there with Linkwitzs Orion dipole.
You are lucky to have been be able to hear them, I bet they are amazing.

[jdhdiggs]

I still don't understand all the hate for John here. So he doesn't subscribe to all the nonsense that some of the people do on this forum, big deal, move on. That's no reason to constantly be an ass to the guy. I have rarely, if ever seen him go out of his way to mock someone, most of his posts are extremely respectful, yet all the yahoo's go out of their way to treat him like crap.

Funny thing is, those who attack him, attack him for not having an open mind. Any one else see that as a case of the kettle calling the pot black?

I don't think anyone hates him. No I don't see as the kettle calling the pot black. Please reread the post on the top of this page slowly, and open minded. I also think that most people who believe in cable started out not believing till they actually tried them.

Open mind? Nah, that's not the reason. His MO is to respond to a new member, one who doesn't know much, and proceed to preach like his word is the gospel truth, it's not. Instead of encouraging a newbie to try something for himself, he tells them everything sounds the same. You think that's good advice? I sure don't and that's the reason he gets zero respect around here.
