Audio Horizon Preamp

By the way, does anyone think that it's odd that people sign on to audiogon eveyday to search threads for the words audio horizon? Hmmn? and most of them act like they are old buddies. By the way, if any of you are offended by that then there must be a problem. If you're innocent, you'll just laugh and won't waste time responding.

I also find it odd, that the designer of this fine unit has no personal friends that would help him out by posting a testimonial... Hmmn? Catch 22, no one will admit to being his friend. LOL!!!

Kensetsu,
I have no doubt that the stuff you are concerned with occurs, but not on this thread. Yes, you're right that if every contributor posted his system w/photos, we'd all be better off. Yes, it's odd that no one has said that they've "been Mr. Chow's friend for x years, and he's the best, etc".
OTOH, if you check the history of many posters here, you'll see they've contributed on A-gon for years on many topics.
Lots of enthusiasts want to "share the love", as well as insurance the resale value of their investments, by doing what they can to help companies be successful. Sure some recommendations need to be taken w/grain of salt, but there is little here that I see that makes for a conspiracy.
If Victor & Joseph are reading, I'd suggest that you get your preamp displayed at the NY show or next fall's Rocky Mountain show, or even the little VTV show. Getting it out in public will help you and any of us curious, but skeptical types. Cheers,
Spencer

Kensetsu, you post a photo of your preamp and I'll post a photo of mine. Does that sound fair to you? Paranoia is a scary thing, isn't it. And remember, just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean everyone's out to get you. There's a nice photo of Joseph's preamp in his ad. Mine looks exactly the same. Mine also has the silver face, but you can get it in black as well. If I were you, I'd buy a vintage Mac C-22. That's what Jaybo has. I also highly recommend any of the preamps that Stereophile and Absolute Sound recommends(tounge-in-cheek)I also agree with Tvad in that this is all becoming a waste of bandwidth. I normally wouldn't respond, but Trolls do get under my skin sometimes. Oh, well. My gain, your loss Kensetsu. Your thought for the day: Strive to be happy.
