Can a manufacturer post replies & discussions?


Hi Audiogoners and Moderators,

I am a manufacturer of high end audio accessories. As such, am I allowed (according to Audiogon guidelines) to post responses to questions that pertain to my field of vibration control? I know these forums are not meant to be a form of advertising and I don't intend to promote my products here but I want to make sure that any responses I post do not "cross the line". I expect that I wouldn't be allowed to name any of my products directly. Is that correct? What about discussing, and maybe being critical of, other philosophies of vibration control that are at odds with mine or products that are not executed well? If I would do so I would not discuss any other company's product specifically by name but by the general design pricinples.

I would appreciate any comments or suggestions. Thank you.

Just make sure you include who you are and/or what you represent and most all of us here will welcome you with open arms! Its the folks who try to promote only there products and seem to have a hidden agenda that really cause problems. I can name a few of the bad apples but there is no need to, everyone knows who they are and how they operate and how to reply to them. I will, however, name a few of the people in the business who not only DO NOT CROSS "the line", but are also very helpful and super nice people. Bobby from Merlin has been posting a lot of helpful information lately, Duke from Audio Kinesis, Brian from Essential Audio, Mike and Neli from Audio Federation, Bob Crump of CTC builder and TG audio, and Ken Lyons of Neaunce platforms are the ones that come to my mind immediatly(sorry for those of you I've missed/forgot!). I think it is clear that by posting this querry you have no hidden agenda and that you do NOT want to operate as a rogue- just don't forget to include a disclaimer with your information when posting about specific equipment, it will save everyone a lot of trouble.

All of that being said, its great to have input from another manufacturer!
