The Palladian-A step beyond

Nandric,

I think you would have been better off letting this go instead of reminding me that I am not in the business, not a professional, which also means I'm not in competition with Acoustical Systems.  I can't remember having any interaction with Dertonarm on this forum or anywhere else, and have nothing against him personally, and I wasn't aware of his apparent sordid history as a cheat and con man. This is well documented with testimony, in Raul's link:

http://www.whatsbestforum.com/showthread.php?6502-Refund-problem

I also wasn't aware, but suspected that the principal of the company, one
Axinia Schäfer, is or was his wife.  This is to avoid past liability claims? If one believes these posts on Whatsbestforum, Daniel Brakemeier AKA Dietrich Brakemeier looks like a moral sociopath, someone thinking they are above judgment and believes their own lies.

Despite this, I suggested that the cart should be judged on its merits. You, on the other hand suggested that I shouldn't post on Raul's MM/MI thread because I, at the time, did not own enough qualifying carts. This is despite the fact that in the past I owned a TK10 MLII, Kisiki Blue, M20FL Super, and numerous others -  currently an AT15/20SS, 980LZ, Z1/SAS, Genesis 1000, etc.

As a past mfg. I submit that any company is constantly on trial in the court of public perception. Counselor, your last posts do not help your friend.

Sincerely,

Dear Fleib, ''the counselor'' which post ''do not help (his) friend''

is public so everyone is entitled to comment. As a ''counsellor''

I don't think that your witness (aka Raul) will make your post

very convincing. Your pretended neutrality regarding Dertonarm

is also not very convincing because of your insinuations that

Dertoarm is a ''moral sociopath''. But more to the point is the

fact that you has nothing to say about my arguments. This is

usual in your reactions to my post. You deed not deny to have

never seen or used any of Dertonarms products. What value

should we put on your comments on his products then? Then

I mentioned ''craftsmanship'' in the context of your interpretation

of intellectual property. I teached intelllectul property for 30

years. I even mentioned ''know how'' which in no way imply

patent as such . You also deed not deny my statement that

Dertonarm is a professional manufacturer  while you and Raul

 are amateurs. I hope for you that you  will be never involved in

whatever lawsuit without an councellor . With your kind of

''argumentation''  you will have no chance.

Dear bluwolf,
For exactly the same reasons as you mentioned Dertonarm left

our forum while I have not seen any post from J. Carr lately.

Those were our , as you name them, '' experts''. Well why

should they if such autodidacts like Raul and Fleib pretend to

know everything better? You should not consider yourself as

an ''lonly wolfe''. The most people are not blind but have some

peculiar opinion about ''politeness'' by which ''critical remarks''

are not done. BTW you also formulated your disatisfaction very

carefull (grin).

Kind regards,

Nandric,

Once again, what's the point, to dig a deeper hole for Brakemeier?

Raul is not the witness. He pointed the way to a 10 page indictment on What's Best Forum. Can you defend against it?  Those posts seem credible to me, but if you have evidence to the contrary.....

My "insinuations" were the logical conclusion of the moral aspect of the thread.  That was stated clearly in "looks like ..."

On the AS web site intellectual property is claimed for uni din.  LOL

I don't believe that past mistakes or problems should necessarily be held against someone. That's why I suggested to Raul that he might like the sound of AS carts, and the Palladian should be judged on its merits.

Want more bad publicity for Acoustical Systems?  That's what the court of public opinion is about.

Fleib, Speaking about ''what the court of public opinion is about'' you obviously overlooked the comment of bluewolf. This is usualy the

case with people who are convinced about their  own right. But

 Raul nor you have enything to say about Dertonarms products

because neither of you has any idea about them.  Both of you

are obsessed  by his charakter and don't care about his products. But what has his charakter to do with the sound of his products?

I don't believe that Einstein was an nice person but what has this

to do with his theories?  I very much like Ikeda's FR- 7 series carts

and don't care about his charakter.
