There is a sucker born every minute and someone to take him. I see Peter Aczel who BTW has lost his second class Licsense to print his rag due to his inability to produce consistant issues; is back. As a cheat who reviewed in his earlier mag the Fourier Transform Loudspeakers as an independant reviewer and gave them a great review...until it was divulged by industry people that he had in fact a controlling interest in the company which he neglected to mention in the review; I am sure he will have more reviews of equipment done by his little group. Since he clearly states that all reviewers are suspect; except the ones who work for him; then I accept that he is correct about that; because he certianly is suspect, thats for sure. Sorry some audiophools give their money to support this lack of integrity and honesty. Too bad; but you know people want to hear what they want to hear and don't care a wit about whether the guy is honest or not. Thats why we have places like AA.
Sockpuppet Supreme.

I'll have to add Head-Fi and Headwize on the decent forums list if you're looking at headphone stuff. These guys go all out on headphone rigs like some do on speaker rigs. The guys on Headwize in particular are very helpful, especially with tube gear. I visit AK and DIYAudio often. AK people are very helpful. As far as AA goes (I only look at the DIY Tubes section and Bottlehead forum), I've found that there seems to be a lot of bickering and such that goes on in the DIY area. Good info can be found if searched for, though, and there are a few that know their stuff and can be quite helpful with DIY questions, especially off-forum.

Has anyone frequented The Harmonic Discord recently?
I have not in a few years. So, I cannot comment on the quality of the discussion there.
I think that ART is one of the cleanest and nicest forums out there.
And Audio Karma comes in second for me.
I think AA and RAT are at the bottom of the barrel for conduct and decency. There is nothing like a good old flame war caused by sock puppets.
But, who cares if people are decent? Their abuse will help you forget about all of the other haters and abusers out there in the world. So, just consider it a diversion, RIGHT!
