Greg, unqualified raves are what they are. but what would this board be like if all manufacturers challenged these comments like Alex? the whole damn place would be chaos since clearly everyone would have an agenda beyond 'pride of ownership'.
most manufacturers (not all) have the good sense to 'keep their distance'. so things (pretty much) stay on a productive level of idea exchange.
i am not 'anti-Alex' or 'anti-anything'......but i do think that people with clear 'agendas' need to excercise restraint when posting.
Audioasylum has clear rules for this to keep things on the up and up. AudiogoN is more commerce oriented so i expect and accept more liberal activity by commercial interests. but there is still a 'line' out there and IMHO Alex consistently crosses it.....however good of a guy i personally consider him. he is not alone in this but he is the most consistent particularly when EMM comes up.
yes; he does not hide his affiliation but that does not make it right or proper. i speak only for myself.......maybe i'm not in step with other's opinions.
