Manufacturers pushing their products and agenda in the forums.

In the deep, dark, past manufacturers participated in the Audiogon forums with a general sense of decorum and a sensitivity to other products that they did not manufacture themselves and which were, from a design standpoint, philosophically opposed to their views. 

What has happened? Manufacturers now post into the forums dogmatically espousing their myopic view of the hobby, shamelessly pimping their own products and view of the audio world and, even more disturbingly, running down opposing brands. 

IMHO, it may be time to throw the baby out with the bath water and ban manufacturers, distributors, retailers and importers. If they can’t get their act together they should take it on the road.

Elizabeth: "Viridian is a blue-green pigment, a hydrated chromium(III) oxide, of medium saturation and relatively dark in value. It is composed more of green than blue. Specifically, it is a dark shade of spring green."


Hello Elizabeth,

      So, you know this little whining, crybaby blue-green creature from planet Virid?  Careful, you're giving us clues about your home planet.

I just wanted to add that I think we're lucky to have industry insiders, like almarg and others, post on various subjects here on Audiogon.

Thanks very much for the nice words, Tim. For the record, though, I do not now nor have I ever had any affiliation with any individual or organization in the audio industry, other than as a customer. My professional background is in defense electronics, primarily analog and digital circuits for airborne radar systems.

Best regards,

Hello Al,
     
      Sorry about that, my error.  I meant to mention atmasphere as the industry inside, not yourself although I do appreciate your forum contributions, too.

Thanks,
  Tim
