I did NOT note anyone. Someone else here placed a link to a thread. I just read it and commented on it.

Hey Jack,

Which direction is that EP500 facing?

I was referring to the AVS link that you posted.

AV123 business to me seems to thrive on choas and spin control. AV123 owner seems like an incredible salesman. I am sure he could sell chewing gum to someone with lockjaw.

I don't think that is quite right.

MLS has shown a lot of courage in talking about things that have gone wrong. Thats not spin control. All companies present their product in the best light.

He does seem to thrive on a certain type of promotion/showmanship that rubs me the wrong way, but he is a long way from spinning like a politician.


The reason I said that was with the person that had those problems and stirred the pot on various forums that Bob noted. Their owner created a sale on their forum with the name based on that person. I can only interpret that one way in which I noted above.

Not sure which way you are interpreting that, but are you aware that Mark and the gentleman in question spoke on the phone, appear to have resolved the issue, ended the call on friendly terms, and, at the gentleman's request, his threads at the AV123 forum were deleted? Naming the sale thread after him appears to have been jokingly tongue-in-cheek.

It's facing toward the arm of the sofa.

Well, in some cases, even the spouse thinks bigger is better, just not in speakers. (HAH! Beat you to it, Peter ) ;\)

Thomas, are you implying that I'm perched on the fence?


No, Jack, no implication intended. As ever, I meant to compliment your friendly and diplomatic style. You possess a rare ability to impart valuable opinion on potentially divisive topics without inciting extremists.

Tom, I wish I had been more exact in my attempt at humor. My fault. I sincerely hope you didn't take me seriously.

Truth be told, the guys on this forum and the guys on the AV123 forum have so much more in common than not. It is frustratingly disappointing to me that brand loyalty and differing beliefs on things such as break-in, do amps sound different, tubes, etc. should prevent, if not a warm friendship, an honest respect for each other and those differing beliefs and opinions.
