Dealers hijacking the discussions


I’m a very long term member and look at the forums most every day. I’m personally extremely irritated by dealers injecting sales pitches into the discussions which has never really been a problem before. Dealers are biased as it’s the nature of business and this is fine but I don’t go to audiogon to see shameless promotion. There’s one guy in particular that needs to go away. The fact that you’ll all know who it is says volumes about the amount of posting this guy/dealer does on audiogon. Does anyone feel as I do. Just curious.

This tread reminds we of when my kids used to bicker back and forth.   I sure do miss those days! :)
I submit all any of us can do is recognize "awesome" to our own ears! That doesn't mean that our "ears" are absolute in determining what is "awesome" for someone else. The more "we" as audiophiles get that there are no absolutes in audio, only preferences, the better off this hobby will be. We argue so much about what's good, bad, awesome, and the best! It's so silly in something as subjective as audio. I do submit it's great to talk about why we prefer one product over another.
Dave says: " I will give you one little example currently we are testing a $2,000.00 power cord with some unique technology that has made a gigantic difference in one of our setups..."  Really? 

A GIGANTIC difference!!  Was what that power cord did also include being jaw-dropping, night and day, hugely revealing and perfectly transparent?  Come on., Dave, you are a dealer...you are in the biz...you know better than.  If an expensive (yes, $2,000 is expensive) PC does anything other than supply AC to the power supply, it would be very subtle.  Gigantic is not subtle.  You guys slay me.
4425 Bill doesn’t have to he has made a fortune direct selling his products vs being a true importer that doesn’t sell direct. Go ask Kharma how that relationship ended up or any of the lines that he killed.

He is too busy halking his wares at shows all over the place to care about these forums.

As per 75% is from me, how many posts were directed at slandering me or making some nasty commment at my direction? Do you expect me to take these insults from people without being able to retort. 

Go check out my post to your USB question, and see how I answer most posts, we have tested 4 or 4 brands and models of USB cables do you think my findings there might be helpful or is that shilling to my brands?

What I meant Wilson losing their way, how many companies consistantly come out with a new model every few years at dramatically ever increasing price points and make most of their changes impossible to retrofit?

Is this fair to the consumer? I know you love your Wilson’s I was not commenting on their sound. Dave Wilson drives a Ferrari who many people in audio are wealthy due to sales of their products? The real answer is not many.

Dynaquest, yes a huge difference, increase in rhythemic percussive qualities and a slightly tighter bass. Putting this one cable in line with our reference power conditioner has made the entire presentation much more holographic and incisive. Once experienced hard to want to remove it.

Buy one and find out for yourself or don’t. Not your average power cord, has a huge active circuit in it with actual electronics.
