Experience with Blue Circle amps

BigCop. I also have experience with Krell, Levinson, and many other manufacturers gear.
The fact of the matter is that BlueCircle is a very small operation, not a mind sucking entity owned by an even larger organism. Therefore, when a customer gets in touch with someone at BlueCircle, you have a very large chance of getting Gilbert directly.
He takes pride in his components, and doesn't like the thought of product failure. This can be said for many small audio manufacturers. The difference is that you can still get a personal touch, not just a technician who doesn't care if you have a ground loop problem or not.
The other thing you don't realize is that many of BlueCircles' customers are within a 2 hour drive of his facility. Therefore, it only stands to reason that some customers may have actually *met* Gilbert.

Bigcop:
What same problems? Poor service from Blue Circle? How? When? Why? Either provide the details so Tweety can get some useful, VERIFIABLE information from the thread he started, or can the slag! Your first post said you didn't want to talk about it - so why post at all???

I know Gilbert too. Does that make me suspect as well? Or do I maybe have a better perspective from which to speak than you. My Blue Circle dealer closed up shop to move to another country, and Gilbert has been kind enough to deal direct with me. He has also had occasion to visit my home to deal with some set up issues. Would the boys at Madrigal Labs do that?

If you have a specific and verifiable beef, then state it! Otherwise stop spreading vague misinformation. And if your beef has something to do with Hello Simply Music, I suggest you remember that dealers and manufacturers are two separate entities.

...don't you understand? I'm not pretending I don't know him. I said I KNOW HIM PRETTY WELL. I got to know him through his equipment, which is how many reviewers get to know designers. I liked his stuff, I looked him up, found out he was a mighty cool guy with, as I expected, ears of gold.

I stuck my nose in here partly on principle but mainly because someone I know and admire was getting smeared. If Chris Thornton wants to come out and tell us the whole story, I'll go back into the bleechers and watch the show, like everyone else. I'm not calling him a liar, I'm calling him out. His whole story may be true. Who knows? We haven't heard it yet. And I sure would like to know who that "local" dealer in Indiana is who's selling BC gear by drop shipment while telling folks that it has a 70% failure rate, wouldn't you? Didn't know BC had a dealer in Indiana. 'Tis a puzzlement.

The web is a place, as you all know, where innuendo rules. I don't like that. When I see it affecting someone and something I know about, I come out of the stands.

I am willing to bet BigCop and Thirty40 are the same person. BigCop just registered the other day, and has only posted to this thread. It's also because BigCop seems to appear at the right moment to defend Thirty40.

I also heard from Gilbert's associate Al Whyley at Blue Circle today. They are aware of this thread, and know who Thirty40 is, as well as others associated with him.

No, we are not the same person.
I did not just sign up, but look, all I was saying was the same thing happen to me.
It's quite obvious that Mr Niel is right, the internet is full of innuendos.
I am very sorry to have intervene.
Good Day
