I am surprised to read that you were downvoted by some. Even if you are completely wrong (I have no idea, I am not a sound engineer), you are trying to provide an opinion and I would simply debate it with you, rather than downvoting.

Lately, I have noticed a lot more downvoting going on than I was used to. Maybe a confirmation bias on my part, but sad nevertheless... I'd use downvoting only for submissions that are harmful.

The longer this website is around, the more people there will be with enough karma to be able to downvote in the first place. Perhaps that explains the shift you've seen?

If so then perhaps the weighing of upvotes/downvotes should be adjusted to reflect that change in voting power?
