HP was an early HEA mentor for me. TAS was at times complex and frustrating but also compelling for a teenager to digest. TAS/HP helped me develop the same appreciation for music as well as fine audio equipment. When an audio publication reaches the level of 1980's TAS, I will subscribe regardless of cost!
Harry Pearson HP No Longer at TAS
From John Atkinson:
So, it's official. Harry Pearson is no longer with The Absolute Sound after nearly 40 years. According to publisher Jim Hannon, "Harry’s life-changing heart surgery has prompted him to rethink how he wants to spend his time going forward. Consequently, it is my unhappy task to inform you that Harry Pearson has decided to resign from The Absolute Sound."
I also read he is starting a new web/blog site hpsoundings.
I know some of you don't like HP, but without him and J. Gordon Holt, I never would have found this hobby, let alone make it a business for over 20 years. I had the pleasure to meet both of these gentleman a few times throughout the years and found them to be bigger than life.
I started my subscription with TAS back in 1980 and have never let it lapse. I'll miss HP.
