I suggest you to try them. I will and I meant Furbies. Btw, please e-mail me the address of your "mystical audio guru" i have to ask him about details. And besides that he seem to me to be more interesting. It is nor surprising that you missed that.
Best and Worst Websites in Audio'dom
It occurred to me today, as I was perusing various audio-related websites that some of them are REALLY bad.
We all know that AudiogoN is the BEST website (at least in my book), but who's got the WORST website?
Let's hear your nominations for the Best and Worst and what you think makes it so good/bad.
BEST - AudiogoN - Easy to navigate, very intuitive, LOVE the forums. And finally...THE CLASSIFIEDS!!
WORST - Audiopoints/StarSound/HarmonicPrecision/Sonoran/Sistrum/MicoBearing - What a freakin' mess. I hold no negative opinion regarding their products. I've used AudioPoints and Sonoran Cables and thought both were good. But the website! Eeesh! The pictures of the products are not flattering (look at those Caravelles!) and the layout is just atrocious. The info about the Harmonic Precision Amplifier says that "the fun begins once more in 2003". Huh? '03 has come and gone! I could go on, but you get the idea.
So let's hear your nominations.

Spencer, just admit that the image of the Furby with the big pasted on ears is what set you off. No harm in thinking that's funny. Here's some more images of the critter: http://www.hasbro.com/pl/page.viewproduct/product_id.13347/dn/tigertoys/default.cfm |
Audiogon & audioasylum have got to be tops! Rives sight is really cool & helpful, too. Absolutesound's sight is the worst in my eyes. Compared to all the other e-zine sights, there is nothing but a flashing "pay me for useful anything" sign. mihorn's sight is one of the funniest to me, but I'm just a cynic. Spencer |
Audiogon is my favortite site period and the only site, other than weather, that I visit regularly. I agree about the cable sites. I was going to comment about Synergistic Research's naked chick but, they have a baby picture up now. I guess that makes sense though. It's still a difficult site to navigate. |
Best 1 - Audio Asylum (Great forums & I've never been censored) 2 - Audiogon (good forums and great place to buy/sell) 3 - 10 Audio (I like Jerry's reviewing style) 4 - Audioreview (nice place to research equipment) Worst Basis Audio - I love their tables, (I have had two), but their site is the buggyest (sic) site I have ever been to. My opinions of course! PS Have you seen the Basis Work of Art yet?! Wow! |
