Yeah, you’re not wrong. I have observed these individuals on this forum and others in the past; it’s been a bit though, probably 2-3 years now. While I prefer not to call them out, I recall instances where they criticized users of the Sennheiser 6XX series headphones for expressing dissatisfaction, or for preferring other headphones over them. Their argument often centered around the idea that those users were not utilizing high-end kilobuck tube amplifiers and expensive DACs, which they believed prevented the listener from fully appreciating the headphones’ capabilities (you know - the “limitless scaling” argument). I stopped engaging in debates with these individuals years ago, as it seemed their only goal, whether intentional or not, was to rain on other people’s parade or to simply scratch the confirmation bias itch.
Oh, here’s a hot-take I have: “home theater” setups are bad and distracting. You already get a three dimensional stage from a good stereo set-up. Multi-channel set-ups that throw the sounds behind and to the side of you are actually anti-immersive because the screen is in front of you so the sound is more separated from the thing that’s supposedly making the sound in front of you. Just get a good stereo set-up with a sub or two. The rest of it is a waste of time and money.
lol. You are not who I was referring to. I’m pretty sure those guys haven’t been active here in a while.
Btw, I didn’t even notice you changed my “quote” when I first read it. Well done sir! 
Except for form factor, and that it was designed for EQ, Audeze perfected the IEM with the LCDi4. Single large planar driver, it’s coherent and has soundstage like nothing else. If you haven’t heard it, you’re not entitled to an opinion.
That should be a general rule. And sometimes, not even then…
