I try to keep exposed to a variety of opinions as every forum (sub-forums in some cases) develops it’s own culture and set of beliefs which often become gospel. Sadly IMO far to many new people only find the large forums when they start looking for opinions and as a result get very little exposure to what’s really available.
It would be kind of nice if there was one site that sort of tied everything together with links to all the forums, review, help and information sites but w/o a bias toward any particular audio/video beliefs.
