OCD mickey website and negativity.

I don't know Mickey. Whatever he is doing seems to be working. He is getting some free advertising here.

Mike has a lot of experience and knowledge in the industry. I appreciate that he limits his lineup to what he feels is best over several price points and doesn't try to be all things to all people.

He's a good guy and genuinely interested in only selling you something you can afford that also fits your system and is the biggest bang for your buck.

He wont sell you something you dont need or wont help your system.

I have bought several things from him and had good phone conversations with him.

He has become a trusted friend and advisor.

Haters are gonna hate but until you request his services you wont know how genuine he really is.

Just like many people he uses the media platforms to market his business.

I always say listen before you buy and you be your own judge 

All reviewers focus on their favorite gear pieces...

All reviewers differ in their ultimate choices...

For me, basic synergy between gear pieces first, then electrical,mechanical and acoustical installation, implementation, optimization, modification matter more that the choice of specific gear and their price tag... ( one piece can be synergetical with many others possible pieces or not for sure then synergy come first)

I am in what some call low-fi with my actual speakers-headphone system...

It is not even wrong to say that about my system but it is debatable , my AKG K340 modified is not low fi at all for example even if his price tag correspond to low fi gear pieces.......😊

But the minimal acoustical satisfaction threshold is enough when it is reached to put you on ectasy...And creativity increase your pride and make you pity many of those who own higher costlier system because some are very good and better yes but many not so much better than yours... 😁 Sorry for the unconfortable truth...

Most people dont know how to make it happen, then the only solution for them is a race toward upgrades toward High Fi higher cost...They forgot music  to focus on sound problems captured by frustation encountering unbalanced sounds factors and acoustic ignorance. They buy an upgrade before experiments mechanical,electrical and acoustical treatment and cures...

What is pathetic and comical is how bad some very costlier system can be ...

It seems no one take the lesson : What we do with what we buy is more important than what we buy ...

Forget reviewers, it is consumers induced entertainment .... Begin study basic and experiment...😊

He’s offensive to the kinds of guys who like the establishment- or long to be a part of it.

I think he’s clever and fun to listen to. I also think he’s really good at calling out the frauds- even the ones here on AG who pretend they are audiophiles but who are actually paid trolls. Clue: They have massive volumes of posts- often multiple posts per day.

I also think he’s legit as he does not pretend he’s not trying to sell you gear. Are you a dealer or a privateer? Good! Put it out there for all to know so they can discern the motive behind the words.

I also think he’d be fun to party with. He's probably funny AF.
