Albert Porter


What has happened to Albert Porter?

I have done business with Albert lately - as always a terrific experience.

Alot of people have moved on or lost interest in Agon but a new crop has come onboard like most sites.  I have been lurking around here since 2000 and don’t post nearly as much but still visit often.  I try to only contribute when I know what I am talking about and these days I find I know less than I used to.  
This is neither a reflection on Albert, nor of this site. Sites change as members shift interest, new members join and the topics change to a degree as the "technology" changes. I’ve seen this on some of the car boards on which I used to participate. Some of it is a reflection of a "healthy" forum that is keeping pace with topics of interest to the readership. For example, I would bet there’s much more discussion now than there was 10 years ago of DACs, and digital taken to a serious level than there used to be (perhaps I’m wrong and this is a reflection of my own biases since I’ve only recently ’evolved’ into using digital more seriously). And there does seem to be a raft of new members here who are very active and contribute. I think that's good. 
As to Albert, write to him and say hello! He’s still very active in the hobby. I’m not sure he has time to post on other fora- I don’t see him elsewhere on the web but I can’t speak for him- ask him!
Exactly right whart - well said.  Your point about technology is also spot on - I am strictly vinyl and do not know the first thing about digital.  Although I am learning on this and other sites. 

My player isn’t even hooked up currently and when it is, because I have loads of CD’s, it is Meridian from the dark ages!  Delta Sigma baby!
Recently had some conversations with him. Altogether great guy and a good person to do business with.
I had dinner with Albert last night. He is encyclopedic on analog. I asked him to help me because I'm considering adding analog to my system. It was a lot of fun and I learned a great deal. If you want an honest answer, then ask Albert.
