That is ignorant bullshit. Anyone that has heard a decent wideband station on a stock receiver knows this. Crystal filters aren't brick walls. They roll off the highs but some are a steeper hill (shape factor) than others. Same goes for for caps that roll off the low end bass. You can make the best of the bandwidth you have to work with and sound better than average.

If communication grade audio is your style I don't have a problem with that. All that matters to me is that you enjoy the hobby.

Some people experimenting with wideband audio have left a bad taste in people's mouths because they take up excessive bandwidth, are constantly tweaking without using a dummy load and talking about their equipment...on 11 meters some constantly play music. I really do understand your frustration but don't be ignorant and put us all in the same group.
