R.I.P. Harry Pearson (HP), founder and longtime editor of The Abso!ute Sound, a definer of an entire industry and creator of an entire lexicon for the written description of audio reproduction. One of a small number that I can say had a direct influence on my love of music, my career, and my passion for audio. You will be missed.

Its always a shame when another icon passes on. Soon this world will be left with only the "i don't want to" generation.
