Surely you know the nursery rhyme:
Doctor Foster went to Gloucester
In a shower of rain,
He stepped in a puddle,
Right up to his middle,
And never went there again.
Happens all the time in Gloucester, apparently:

al7478:Yeah, but some would say it is evidence based 
Now, about our banter a couple of pages ag:
im geting pretty sick of doing this, but strongly believe in it when necassary, and here it is necassary.
on reflection, i think you're rght in your last reply, and i apologise. i obviously got out the wrong side of bed. again.
Andrew - i havent re-red that other thread again, but i think somewhere we were at cross purposes, and on some points we simply disagree. I'm not sure you did actually missunderstand me in quite the way i had in mind earlier, either. However, if i can clarify any of my views on that one, id be glad to do so.
if, however, you "aint bovvered", thats fine by me. itll spare me the effort lol!
I don't think I have the foggiest what this post is about.

a couple pages back you mentioned my reading things into things a lot lately. because you said the same in another thread. you are hinting at a trend that doesnt exist. in this thread, as ive said, i was wrong. in that one, i thiunk im right, tho ill eat humble pie if necassary.
now, i know you had that other thread in mind when making your earlier comments in this one, as do you.
i was just making an attempt to be concilliatory. Whatever.

We're all on the same side, aren't we? What I'd like to know is: what is the relationship between Ashley and drummerman? They must know each other pretty well - well enough to envite a forum member for a personal demo. If so, then, from what I've read, drummerman is helping to promote that product.
Sorry, but the whole thing sounds a bit fishy. Unless I've got the wrong end of the stick?!
... with this ... and I try to be as polite as possible even though you dont deserve it mate ...
You, if you really wanted, would surely be invited too for a dem. If you read the start of this tiresome thread which I now wished I have'nt started you may see that I too have certain reservations about the 9's. Nothing's perfect. Then again, why should'nt I say good things repeatedly if I believe in something my friend. AVI is not the only product I think is good. So, in your opinion I promote the companies product. So be it.
I did warn 'im........ For what it's worth, I don;t think anybody (else) is questioning your integrity, DM.
No worries and thanks
Good. I'm glad we've got the situation clarified. If I have caused you any discomfort regarding this issue, then I apologize.

Ashley James:I can't believe the amount of rubbish we've had to put up with since ADM9.1s appeared and most of it could have been avoided by asking me for clarification as do up to 100 daily!
Most of the "rubbish" would have been avoided with a more tactful spokesperson. In my humble opinion, your product isn't the reason that you get "rubbish". It's your manner.
Part of all this is the clash between engineering companies like us who are able to relate what we hear to what we measure and who use people in broadcast, record and movie production to evaluate what we do and those believe in magic cables and tapping their feet to the music etc despite at least a million tons of evidence to show it's all boloney! Ash
And there's a perfect example. How to alienate the cable buying, foot tapping masses that read this site, in one easy sentence.

Well Ash has responded now, and hopefully we'll set up a factory briefing and pick up some review units very shortly.
that will teach me to read the rest of the thread before replying...
might just delete my rpevious post to save any more embarrassment... (besides my spelling)

As long as Claire manages to visit Ashley, and comes back with a pair of 9.1s (and auditions them with a Mac as well as any other suitable source) to review, it'll all be worth it!!!

That would explain Alan's particular review where £4000 set of cables were used with £2000 worth of system
