It may be a matter of some debate on this forum as to whether I'm fit to pronounce opinions on anything Nick has posted 
but, IMHO, he is absolutely hitting the nail on the head.
Take for example the wide variety of audio fora that there are around - it could be said with some accuracy that some of them, (dare I suggest even this one?), has it's 'house sound'. If you share that 'house sound' you tend to stick around but if you don't you move on to another forum where your opinions are more in tune (sorry 
) with those of the other members.
