What's Up Wth Ultimate Audio Magazine ?

as near as i can tell, after reading all sorts of posts on aa and here from "reviewers," the presumed publisher/owner and other apologists, the OFFICIAL line is: "no, we're not out of business, the next issue is at the printers, but you may not receive it for a couple of years-- so just be patient, have faith and keep sending us money (as much as you possibly can)." my translation of the OFFICIAL line: you may still get a wee bit of moisture on the mirror if you hold it close to the nose but this is as close to a corpse as you'll likely encounter without a coroner's tag on its toe. -cfb

I spoke with one of the reviewers from Ultimate Audio and he said that they were affected by tha Sept. 11th. tragedy, but they hope to have the next issue out around New Year's.

yep, there's another version of the OFFICIAL line. once again, ultimate audio's reviewers make pollyanna appear as a wretched pessimist. -cfb

Sheesh.... renewing your subscription on their own, billing your card without your permission and not acknowledging ANY inquiries from subscribers. Sounds like a downward spiral at ever increasing speeds. I would step back lest you be drawn into the whirlwind and spit out like the other debris that they will leave behind. Then again, i am not a subscriber nor have i ever desired to be one. Too much "glossy paper" and not enough "substance" for me... Sean
