firedog Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 1 hour ago, The Computer Audiophile said: Hi Guys - It isn't always black & white when a site supporter chimes in a conversation. Barrows has been a member here since July 15, 2008. In that time he has worked for a few different audio companies but more than anything he has helped people and contributed quite a bit of knowledge to the site. When he offers information in a thread it's far different from the manufacturers who are here solely to promote products and who have recently jumped on our bandwagon. That said, blatant marketing is only allowed in a sponsored forum. I don't see Barrows' recent post as blatant marketing. If you disagree please PM me and we can chat. Agree. Barrows spoke in generalities about transport types. Didn't push products he is involved with. I guess if we wanted to be very strict, we could ask that he not specifically mention the opticalRendu or write about a specific Sonore product in this type of thread. But it still seems to me the point he was trying to make is about optical in general and not pushing a product.
