Welcome Licorice Pizza (LP) lovers! Setup guides and Vinyl FAQ.

Nope, wasn't me...

I actually have been honest about some of the items I've used and stated their poor qualities. But I also try to be fair and state what's right with them or qualify that they don't work well for my particular setup. I don't really care if someone else likes or dislikes the products I'm using. My ego and self-worth doesn't depend on a stereo component. But I do care if a product (even one I don't own) is given a bad rap when it wasn't deserved.

And you are right, there are no lives at stake here. So put my post in perspective as well. It's merely a suggestion to try and make this forum reasonably objective, for both good and not-so-good products. (There are rarely truely bad products.) That way, people coming here to get information and advice will find the best advice that we can provide.

My point, Sylvian, is that before someone posts how bad something is (this product SUCKS or some angle on the SUCKS theme), they should be pretty sure of the statements before firing it off. Nothing wrong with a negative opinion of something if it deserves it, as Mosin points out, but the opinion should be based on something more than first impressions or a poor diagnosis of the problem. If someone isn't really sure of the diagnosis, don't post something that is strongly negative.

I'm having a great day and I wish you the same. Glad to hear that your friend's setup is sounding better. And good of you to repost your findings.

Tom
