This is not the spot for any manufacturer or dealer to bad mouth any other product. That's how threads die. Speak positively about your own product and let the customers say negative things about the competitors products. It's fair and most dealers and manufacturers honor that code.

I think every contributor here should decide for himself what to post, within the forum's rules, of course. Similarly, every reader should decide for himself the value of each post. Many contributors here have posted critical comments about products; sometimes those comments are credible, sometimes not.

Cleeds. Negative posts about gear are fine until it's from a dealer or manufacturer. Then it's not sincere, it's badmouthing a competitor, unreliable information; and subsequently not welcome. As I said, it's not been an issue as the manufacturer's and dealers know proper forum etiquette. If Aurender posts something bad about SGM, the motives are questionable and SGM and Aurender will end up blowing up the thread and kill the topic. It's caustic and detrimental and had happened killing many good threads. I try to watchdog this VERY long lived thread to keep things fair and educational for all involved. Thus far it has worked. It is a massive undertaking, but a labor of love. 

Thanks for your input! Now back to our regularly scheduled obsessing.....

Pardon me, but you are not an Audiogon moderator. It is not your role to "watchdog" this group. It is not for you or me to impose our rules on top of Audiogon’s.
