Virtual system revisited
Some time ago the idea of an AudiogoN virtual system was discussed. I recall AudiogoN thinking it was a good idea, and I recall a lot of good discussion. For what ever the reason the idea died and no further discussion has transpired. I'd like to bring a proposal to the table along with a working example.
First off I would propose AudiogoN create a separate category "VIRTUAL SYSTEM" within this category would be a series of sub categories. A) $1500 or less, B) $1500 - $4000, C) $4000 - $9000, D) $9000 - $15,000, E) $15,000 - $40,000 and F) $40,000 and up.
The second part of this proposal is to have the systems built from the existing ads. Any one can start a new system (thread), weather it for fun or trying to help sell their own equipment. Both dealers and individuals are encouraged to participate.
Once a system is proposed anyone can make additional posts within the thread suggesting alternate components that are for sale. I was also thinking it might be helpful to allow someone to recommend a component not presently for sale if it seemed to be the perfect match.
The ultimate idea is to help people who may be trying to buy a piece of equipment or an entire system with the input of all of us. I think this could be an excellent selling tool, and a fun opportunity for guys like me who need to "get a life" to enjoy the hunt and the eventual learning achieved by the process.
The great thing is these virtual systems would remain archived in the category for future reference.
So what do others feel about this?
