True that, changer for measurements/impressions, headfi for news, amb/diyaudio/headcase for diy. Even other sites like rockgrotto and anythingbutipod are fairly good.

It might sound simple. Would it help HF to develop a new and clear vision, mission statement and to create its own PR team instead of Jude and Amos complicating matters?

As a novice I loved HF. As I got experience I detested HF as I felt the priorities of HF were contradictory. Hence I drifted off after Huddler...

Within their current business model, the easiest way to eliminate the ethically grey area they find themselves in is by informing the public that HF is a business and listing all the sponsors in one place. Let them honestly say to the community, "These are the guys who pay us; don't piss them off on our site."

From what I've experienced over there if you frown down on a FOTM product which the company happens to be a sponsor

Especially of you frown on one of those marketing-led threads, like ifi (put me off the damn product) or GOTM-involved (God of the month) like oppo. I can get FOTMS (syndrome) as much as the next guy, but not when the manufacturer is ramming it down my throat.

It's a bit sad, really: I signed up on HF because of an interest in a limited number of products, and the experience has put me off some of them. That could, of course, be unfair on the product.

It was purrin's thoughts about DACs thread on HF that was helpful to me. DAC preferences are personal as was noted. Yet the discussion led me to the Auralic Vega which works well in my system and ticks all my aural performance check marks. I wish to thank Marvey for taking the time to write those thoughts as it shortened my path to a high level aural enjoyment.
