You are the main reason I started reading and then subscribing to "Stereophile" many, many years ago. Obviously, going forward your absence will weigh heavily on whether or not I extend my current subscription. In this day and time when audio equipment is getting more and more expensive, I could aways count of your columns to bring everything back into focus...that being that a person doesn't have to spend a fortune (subjective word I know) to assemble a very good sounding system. I personally think, going forward, that the demise of the more popular audio mags will result from them reviewing a disproportionate number of insanely priced components. Should that happen some manufactures, unless they change their business model, will follow the magazines down that deep, dark hole. What will emerge will be something better...the second coming of the true hobbyist that will build his/her own equipment and marvel at how much better it sounds than the expensive gear they previously owned.
Anyway, best of luck as you begin the next phase of your life.
Be safe,
Raven
