As AudioCircle has grown it has set up more specific rules for various types of participation.
I have been registered with AudioCircle since the beginning and assisted in setting up the VMPS Circle, the Bryston Owners Circle, the NuFORCE Circle, the NuPRIME Circle, and the Evoke Circle.
I am presently directly supportive all the VMPS owners, and I am part of EVOKE and NuPRIME staff.
As well I am also a dealer either directly or via distribution of MANY brands.
I only carry products and brands I either use in my system, or want to have in my systems.
I have been involved with Audio in a serious way since the early 70's, and have a lot of miles on these ears.
It has become a passion/hobby/business and what is better than that.
I will post some of the brands and manufacturers I deal with, but to be perfectly clear I work CLOSELY with the EVOKE and NuPRIME companies beyond the capacity of a Dealer, so if you need anything or have questions regarding their products please feel free to post me.
My next post will list my current list of other manufacturers including ELAC which I have a lot of enthusiam for.

Hi John, pleasure to meet you. Being able to make a living of something your are passionate about, I don't think it gets any better than that. After about 25 yrs away from audio, and officially being retired last October, I find I now have time to rekindle my passion with audio also(although I did go back to work for a bit to help pay for this passion). I understand the NuPrime Reference Evolution amps will be out sometime in March, and I am anxiously awaiting to hear them, my question is, is there a probability of NuPrime making a stereo version of the Reference Evolution?

Probably a good question for the NuPrime Circle. I've been watching their website to see if the monos are listed there.

Thanks, Can't say I "make a living" from this, but it does make my hobby easier to afford :lol:
My "day job" is in the Health and Fitness Business.
The Reference Evolution Promises to be a BOLT of lightening to those who want a serious AMP.
I am not aware of plans for a Stereo Version, but am happy to help you if you are seriously looking.

ah...the old adage," don't quit your day job.........." sort of. Very well done though. I'm most definitely looking for a serious amp, but realistically speaking, depending on cost, and I don't think they will be cheap, a viable alternative would be to have a Reference Evolution stereo amp, ergo, why I was curious, and if it might possibly some day exist. But, darned if the new Ref Evo isn't pulling at me.( I always find myself drawn to the unknown). Phil A, posted, I should ask at the circle, I didn't know there was one, went searching, now I do, thank you Phil,but since I have your attention and you offered :D please do, find out. Thankyou

A quick post regarding OPPO.
I have been an OPPO Dealer and supporter almost since they started as they interacted with NuFORCE years ago.
Sad to say they are ceasing to develop NEW Products.
They will continue to support their current products.

CUT THE CABLE?
While I am a dealer and participant, I am not a dealer for any CABLE or TV system.
That said, my CABLE/INTERNET/VOIP PHONE bill was approaching $240mo :duh:
A good portion of that was CABLE TV and a couple Premium Channels.
Just found and have been using a STREAMING system called GEARS RELOADED TV, (https://kingvision.tech/index.php) with the Mayfair Guide
Total Monthly Outlay about $18mo and it has WORLD WIDE channels, and virtually all Premium Channels.
Let me BE CLEAR All the Premium channels like HBO, Stars, Skynet, etc are INCLUDED in the $18mo fee.
To access the service I use a Nvidea Sheild (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B075RXV2VR/ref=psdc_13447451_rv_t2_B01N1NT9Y6) Android Device ($179 on Amazon)
(https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61UfqwUVB0L._SL1500_.jpg)
Quality is on par with Cable and Content is Voluminous and CHEAP by comparison.
Down Side is they currently don't have DVR capability
