Great. I'm telling you, I don't really understand the dynamics of that other place. I really dislike forum conflict, but always felt the unofficial policy of the owner and moderator was to paint the brand as strange, cultish, and, the latest effort, potentially dangerous. Speaking of cultish, because the forum fosters such Ivan worship, there are legions who eagerly ride that vibe for a scratch behind the ear. Of course, those who disagree are "not friendly." I've never seen anything like it. I've been on the Klipsch forum and the Asylum for almost 15 years. Never a problem. One year at that place and I feel like I'm in the jr high lunch room. Friendly for friends of the management, I guess.
In any event, I've had a long Shindo journey and I'm happen to share my experiences in a truly Shindo friendly environment.

their business model is to bully the competition and sell high end audio out of their basement.

I has a local guy cut and glue the Baltic birch layers. Then a friend of dales did the veneer. The veneer is amazing.

You got it! ...All for their own personal financial interest.

Probably the most flagrant example of Ivans heavy-handedness. I am "dirtbag" on that forum.
What a pc of work.

I knew of that but frankly I am well behind given that b_______ anymore of my attention or energy.
Ivan just upgraded me to a full ban without comment.
I assume either he or one of his super fans is reading this, so I'd ask for a refund of my membership dues. Feel free to pro rate it.
Now that I'm not encumbered with forum allegiances, I'd direct Magico representatives to the members only forums to discover that the thread in which his moderator was critical of the brand was moved not deleted.
I look forward to the day when a similarly situated manufacturer explores the outer edges of libel lawsuits for the selective moderation applied by his "volunteer" Dan, if not outright defamatory posts by the management.
To the members of AA, I can only say, isn't it great how Ivan gets you to drool over his systems and Ferraris on his for For Profit site?

I prefer product representative rather then volunteer!

I only wish that all the good people over there would finally wake up, including all the audio dealers/manufacturers and the brands that they are selling/representing.
And yes he or someone else is checking other audio websites (not just here); they have all the time in the world to do so as their member's list is small, and not what it appears to be (fudged numbers).
