Hey, what ever happened to Clark Johnsen? Wellfed? Elizabeth? Ah, the good old days!! Beware the life cycle of audio websites.
Follow Ups:
Yes, the good ol' days...we had the longest asylum thread going there for a while...don't know if the record held up, but it was a good one.
What happened to mr and ms piggy?
Damn, time passes!

Folks just leave. Some probably die of old age.
She passed in 2020 from medical complications.
Fax mentis incendium gloria cultum, et cetera, et cetera...
Memo bis punitor delicatum! It's all there, black and white,
clear as crystal! Blah, blah, and so on and so forth ...
I remember her saying she had had an organ transplant and had health concerns. I always enjoyed the few ladies we have had here for a different point of view. Others thought differently and there was some bullying from a few.

Something else just hits the ground
Broken cutters, broken saws
Broken buckles, broken law
Broken bodies, broken bones
Broken voices, broken phones
Take a deep breath, feels like I'm choking
Everything's broken"
Forget your perfect offering
There's a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in
That's the explanation of how the Intelligent Chip works. OMG!
Love that song...
they go away. die, get tired of same ole, same ole.
Some go to other sites, some to very toxic sites where they can say what they want without real monitoring. Not always good but then we all make choices.

Joe S's experience with tubes was extremely helpful during the early days of this board.
I'm not sure, but I *think* Rich passed away. Somewhere there is a list of members that have gone to the great listening room in the sky. I can't find it though.

It's on the Asylum Support page, a link in the text goes down to the bottom of that page. I'm sure it's not an exhaustive list.

He seemed like a fundamentally good guy.

Met him at CES/T.H.E a RMAF over the mid-2000s and even one VSAC, if I recall correctly.
He was a regular at many of the vendor rooms I frequented at shows as he was a writer for Positive Feedback.
Toobs and vinyl guy,and maybe even a horn guy as I met him in the EdgarHorn room one CES/T.H.E long ago.

Snippet: It was 1992. A friend in high-end audio had told me that I should get in touch with Clark Johnsen, since he was a good writer and might be interested in writing for Positive Feedback.
He might also be crazy. Good warning.
Clark was a good audio friend, an exceptional thinker and writer, a joyous and passionate fellow audio-voyager, one whom I'm very glad to have known and to have hosted for so many years here at the audio community that is Positive Feedback. I will really miss him.
Clark was the guy I gave the Intelligent Chip to at CES 2005 so he could take it around to anyone who would listen. The Product of the Year. Ironically the Intelligent Chip was not my product, it came from a guy in China, and distributed by golden Sound. Pretty funny, really. I guess I was the Senior Shill.Clark was also was nice enough to promote quite a few of my products back then pretty risky when they were uh, frowned upon, Brilliant Pebbles, Nimbus Sub Hertz Platform, Mr. Chip. He also promoted Peter Belt of PWB. Stereophile wound up reviewing their cream and holographic silver foil and even tried the photos in the freezer tweak, gasp! The Cream and foils made it into their Best Products list, whatever it's called. Will miracles never cease? Clark was one of the audio insiders who hung out in Crump Curl room 2000 and 2001 (where I was showing my spring based iso stuff).

and I quite enjoyed meeting up with you, Geoff, at the close of one of those shows (2001?). I recall being quite entertained by the range of articulation of that Nimbus thingy of yours.
fwiw, I think I still have some cream electret from the sample kit that Peter would mail out.
I could never remember how to spell Neuance. :-)
Makes sense. The tribute did raise the possibility of his being crazy. Seriously, he seemed like a sweet guy who was uber passionate about audio. And he annoyed Kuller. Perk* ~:)
But in this case...
It did!
"Reality cannot exist because it cannot keep up with the lies on the Internet."
now... umm... he works Someplace Else.
