How much do we at A'gon influence the industry?


Hi everyone,
Just a question that's been in my head for a little bit. How important do you folks feel this forum is to the audio industry at large in the Ensligh speaking countries?  I ask because I often see some taking it way too seriously, and personally.

I mean, I know times are tough, being a boutique audio manufacturer is not easy at any level in the audio industry, so I can really understand how negative buzz for your product can directly relate to your livelihood.
On the other hand, it's just A'gon. I doubt most audiophiles even come here very often.
What do you all think?

Best,

E

Please explain.  Are you saying to look up any of the stereo gear at Wikipedia to see if they list it to be audiophile quality.  I have never used Wikipedia so far so I must still live in the dark ages.  Guess I showed my age.

>>>>>I was joking. That is not to say Wikipedia cannot often be a source of excellent easy to find and well organized information.

I noticed some some people to mention Klipsh and Kef which I do not consider to be audiophile quality. Paradigm is also not mentioned which indicates that is not audiophile as well.

>>>>>Rule no. 1 - Only quote facts

Rule no. 2 - If it’s not mentioned in Wikipedia Audiophile it’s probably not audiophile quality 😀
