Factually incorrect I'm afraid. Ian J and Uncle Eric had set the wheels in motion to set-up AV Talk long before AVT was viewed as a potential threat to an existing (business oriented) monopoly and an excuse was created to ban Uncle Eric. For someone so keen to avoid mention of the AVT/AVF history, you seem strangely quick to bring up (one side of) the story at any opportunity.

Micheal, whilst I respect the 'never trust a dealer/second hand rulez' ethos at Zerogain, you should not always believe what you're told by those who are so anti-dealers as to plain lie to further their aims.

To put everyone's mind at rest, yes, I am friends with a dealer who sells Auralex... does that make me think Auralex works any better, or any worse, than it actually does? No. Did I name the dealer I know? No. Did I suggest there was only one dealer? No.

Did I actively recommend my fellow forum members use a dealer who sells Auralex at higher prices than another I'm well aware of? No.

I stand to gain exactly nothing from the sale to anyone of any Auralex product.
