I suggest close HFS and come here, your sales will increase I can guarantee that much, your entourage do more harm than good, at least 1 person said to me today he wouldn't mind an NVA phono stage but there is too much baggage goes with it.
AFAIK reading or joining HFS is not a condition of purchasing NVA equipment.
The idea that someone should close their forum, because someone doesn't like it, is ludicrous.
Paul when I met you , you struck me as a nice chap, quite intelligent in fact. My opinion remains the same.
When a punter is considering buying NVA equipment whatever it may be, the majority will google the brand and look for what people have to say about it. No one buys anything these days without researching it first. We can't even go on holiday nowadays without reading trip advisor first!
Said person researching NVA will 100% guaranteed come across the HFS forum, are you seriously saying the forum helps sales?
Anyway back on TOPIC.
Next meeting at my place is TURNTABLES.
Hi Dave,
I hope you are keeping well. I still think you're a nice guy, too.
The forum (any forum) may put some off, and it may turn others on. If we run with your theory that I am 'quite intelligent' then my multiple purchases of NVA amps, pre-amps, speakers, cables and mains unit suggest that it's possible to see through a bit of 'noise' to find the bigger picture. There is stuff posted on HFS that I disagree with. I post that I disagree and then move on. Why would I cut my nose off to spite my face?
From what I know, RD is an enthusiast above all else. If people like what he does and want to buy it, he lets them. If he makes enough from that to maintain a living that suits him, he carries on doing it. If not, he does something else that interests him.
Your advice may be rational in the context of the constraints of a traditional business. NVA is not a traditional business. RD has found freedom from the sole pursuit of more money, in order to do the things he is passionate about - to have that freedom is to be as rich as you can ever get.
Anyways. Topic. Turntables. Cool. Hope I can make it.
Warm regards,
Paul
