I guess 99% of all people do not like “arrogant and condescending attitudes”, but this is also not directly what I am talking about – sorry for the misunderstanding concerning “ego”.
Ego (“me” or “I”) believes in my self, and knows my opinions will make the world better.
Ego = “I know what is the best sound for me because I have done some investigations + listening etc.”
Ego = “I want others to feel the same because I like to guide others”
Ego = “this is my contribution to a better world – it makes me feel good to guide others to a better sound.”
Ego = “It is always wonderful if one of the others well known members in the forum will agree that I have one of the best insights in building speakers”.

Ego driven people that have some kind of respect for others will not be too arrogant.

I admit that I am Ego driven. I am thinking (I can never be sure) of you Rick Craig as a person with a clear Ego and with a deep respect for others opinions; because you write like you know what you are talking about. In my opinion it is mostly boring to read what non ego driven people are writing, because they are always indirectly asking the reader what they are thinking.

Rick C.: I don't always have to be "right" but I do have a low tolerance for BS and discussions not based on fact.
Mediafreak: So is it also for me. My ego accepts to be “wrong” but does not like it; and I have clear opinions (because I know it is best for ME and OTHERS = strong ego)- like low tolerance for those that will not respect this forums rules and intensions.
