    Marco - you most certainly don't - you have to do what gets traffic through this Forum. The complainers are narrow minded bigots with axes to grind, they are not necessarily representative of passing trade and they haven't said anything worth listening to either!
    They've just bitched!

    The whole trouble with hi fi for years has been narrow minded intransigence as demonstrated by the back door whiners here. They don't like anything different, they are jealous of the interest that AVI has provoked and they'd rather this forum die (as is hi fi ) than tolerate anything that doesn't accord with their dull little viewpoint.

    JCBrum has very eloquently expressed precisely the view that would be held by a majority were this a big enough forum to attract a representative cross section of the population.

    I suggest you let it roll, ignore the whiners and allow this Forum to grow and attract a wider and much more interesting cross section.

    jc,

    I'm sorry, but this matter is not up for debate.

    I presume you didn't join this forum just to discuss AVI? If so, let's see some evidence of this.

    Start a thread on your audio history, or discuss anything else you wish relating to hi-fi, music, or permitted off-topic subjects. I'm sure in all the years you've been into hi-fi you must have had lots of different and interesting experiences, so let's hear about them

    Marco.

    Ashley,

    I don't *have* to do anything. I have made a decision and it is final. Please respect my wishes and contribute on other subjects as you have been asked. If you don't wish to do this you are more than welcome to leave, although I would be sorry to see you go.

    I will not allow any more debate about this - thread closed.

    Marco.

    There is such a thing as doing a particular topic to death. Ashley, it's for your own good. You can put people off you know and we wouldn't want to do that, would we?

    AVI infomercials here there and everywhere are now banned. You may of course extoll ithe endless virtues of ADM9s hooked up to an iPod in the Trade Inspirations - that is still free of charge!
