Yeah I was overstating it for some fairly obvious reasons...
Recently during an orientation on the new sound system installation at the club where I work, the installer droid responded to my question about how do I connect my HD24 recorder to the directs, when all it has is XLR output jacks... his snooty reply was, in high end audio we don't use quarter nch jacks, you'll just have to adapt to XLRs. His attitude was very like an audiophile saying, "well you can't hear jitter on those cheap speakers" - both statements arrogant and alienating! Either one reduces respect and trust in the person and their company.
I remaind silent but wanted to say, this is a music club, not a high end living room!
Of COURSE we'll use what we need for the time and application... and professionalism is indeed a word! A very important one...
