In Reply to: Magnepan is quite successful as it is. Leave well enough alone. . . posted by Alan G. on October 14, 2011 at 16:28:42:
Wendell wants to demonstrate to 'us' (through a representative) that which they have in the oven. One of the outstanding things about Magnepan is that they do involve individuals outside of their product development circle in the testing of their designs. They don't just puff themselves up and shout about what fantastic things they've done. Instead, they humbly seek confirmation that what they think is an improvement is actually perceived as such - they even conduct blind listening evaluations.
Our little community stands to learn from such a visit. I think Josh would make a splendid ambassador because he will understand the technical aspects of what he will witness and he has the verbal skill to communicate that information to us. I also believe he has the character to be honest about his opinion - with Magnepan and with us.
I really don't think Magnepan is desperately seeking direction from part timers. Then again, Josh isn't exactly a part timer; he's a professional.
