Look for reasons for the success of any great product
and you'll most likely discover that it is due, at least in part, to
what people have to say about it. While we would never suggest you
buy something blindly just because someone said nice things about it,
there is a certain amount of weight to be given to the opinions of
those you know and respect. Beyond the experiences of your colleagues
there is a wealth of opinion accessible through magazine reviews and
articles as well as usenet news groups that focus on your area of
interests. In these news groups seasoned professionals and hobbyist
alike can share information in an open forum. For us in the pro audio
industry one such news group is r.a.p (rec.audio.production)
where we all seemed to have started. Since the early Usenet days the Web has
advanced considerably and so has the proliferation of information. These days
we studio professionals hang out at places like:
Gearslutz
| ProSoundWeb
| 3DAudio
| TapeOp
On the Hifi side of things, the best place to hang out these days is on the
Audio Asylum.
The
following is a collection of magazine reviews, articles, personal
correspondence and news group clippings gathered to represent a slice
of public opinion and experience with regard to our gear. We hope you
enjoy what people have to say.

"There are two big secrets to have a great sound in the studio. One is
to trust what you hear. The other is to be totally aware of your signal
flow. With my Manley gear, I am totally aware that my sound is going
thru pure quality design, components and tube expertise. And I love the
sound they make me hear."
