I disagree entirely with this assertion.

 

Here is an (albeit extreme) example of why:  Let's say you have a compound fracture: who do you consult to deal with the problem, a car salesman who has a hobby of giving medical advice for free, or an orthopedic surgeon, a professional, who is actually trained in his field and who charges money for his services?

 

Just because the Internet allows for anyone to post their opinion on anything does not make anyone an "expert".

Out of curiosity, who is the expert exemplified by the surgeon in your example, you or John Swenson? I ask this as to my knowledge, you are a self taught DIYer such as I am. To suggest that you are "a trained professional" and that your opinion on your own products is akin to that of a orthopedic surgeon is a VERY "extreme example" at best, and closer to to a lie than the truth. I respect you and Sonore in general, but you have waded into manufacture's waters and need to tread more lightly IMO.

 

Oh, and for the record, an organ grinding monkey is a professional too. Being paid for something(peanuts!) is no indicator of qualifications. There are some pretty tuned in folks around here, I'd not be so quick to put airs on.

4est, Barrows is a technician assembling mostly pre-manufactuted boards for the Signature Rendu series. He also tests units and ships them for Sonore under contract.      

This is precisely my point!

 

I'll skip the defamation of likening someone to a used car salesman, but a surgeon is a degree'd professional with a license. They are often specialists as well. To suggest that he is that (an RF engineer) and just "knows", whilst the other poster is a car salesman is simply wrong IMO. It's your business and reputation Jesus, but it is no surprise to me that he got some flak. I am not even saying that I disagree, but I do not feel that a manufacture's rep should wade in in this manner on a product of their employer's. You and Superdad/Alex) tend to be pretty good at taking a punch and remaining professionally detached. Kudos!

 

The organ grinding monkey bit was over the top. I am sorry about that.
