    Therefore I would ask that Audioman withdraws post 35 which both insults me personally and and makes false accusations against me.
    I would also say to Gordon that his post 41 is completely inappropriate and should be removed. Nothing is being aired publicly in this thread and there is no personal comment from me whatever. I have given a balanced view of a product I own and stated that I think it sounds good but breaks easily. I'm certainly not the only one out there with broken SSPs - there's plenty of others.

    Thank you.
    We observers of human nature tend to be a bit cynical I'm afraid. The possibility that a post criticising a product produced by someone with whom you had a business relationship that ended in an acrimonious split, was likely to be balanced, sort of stretches the imagination.

    I think the time has come to stop this nonsense as it is only going to end up with regrets on both sides. Life is too short to argue over a length of copper...

    Normally I would agree. I don't like conflict.

    However I like bad faith even less and my hackles were raised by this and certain other connected incidents. But I will add nothing further to this thread.

    Just my observation...........

    One member posted that as he owned some NVA kit he was entitled to his own opinion, when I posted my genuine thoughts on one particular product from the range, and how I believed it sounded better than a more expensive one, I had a round of four letter words thrown at me......shan't say from whom.....

    I also note that threads contains a certain three letters of the alphabet seem to end the way this one is going.....

    Hi Jason,

    Before I go any further, in terms of moderating this thread, could you please confirm (or deny) that it was you who fitted the Neutrik plugs to the NVA interconnects, shown in the picture you posted earlier?

    Once I know the answer to that, I'll comment further.

    However, as a point for general consumption, I'd like to state that Barry has no issues whatsoever with Richard Dunn or NVA. He has absolutely no interest in any inter-forum contretemps. The (now deleted) comments he made were strictly about the construction of the cables (as he observed them), shown in the picture Jason posted, which now seem to be a misrepresentation of the NVA interconnects in question.

    Marco.

    Hi Craig,

    Did this occur on the open forum, and if so, where?

    No.

    We have discussed this before, and I didn't mention where it happened as it was pointed out to me that it was wrong to mention where, so I didn't.

    I felt the need to mention it however as it was mentioned earlier that by owning kit from a manufacturer should give one the right to pass an opinion on it.

    It seems in this case that is not true.

    I hope that I have not contravened any rules? After all I didn't mention where it happened, only that it did.

    Sorry, Craig. I have no idea what you mean. Unless you can express yourself more clearly and explain what your issue is, then I'm unable to see what relevance your comments have to this thread

    While I think it is the correct thing to do to apologise for your earlier uninformed post, you must realise that someone could "google" soundpipes and only read as far as your earlier post thereby gaining a totally false understanding of the product.

    Guy.
    I don't usually comment on this sort of thing but in the interest of fairness it should be noted that there have been a number of "uninformed" posts on this thread. Whilst I also agree that it is best that they are deleted, why is it that you have only taken offence at Barry's comments? The Post by Audioman is specifically accusing an individual of deliberately misrepresenting the facts without a shred of evidence, included the rantings of an individual from another forum and certainly needs to be removed and an apology offered.

    Quite simple really Marco, in one post in this thread Figlet108 who owns equipment / wires made by NVA, states that as he owns them, he is entitled to his opinion on them.

    I point out that isn't the case, as I had previously also pointed out, not in this forum by the way, that my genuine thoughts were that I believed the cheaper Sound Cords were better than the more expensive Sound Pipes.

    It was at that stage that I was PM'd' by you know who with a barrage of four letter words on how dare I make such a statement and what did I know about these things.

    Clear now?
