Nah, keep it the way it is Frank. I've seen longer letters published in Stereophile, and a lot less polite. Hopefully, it will make the "Letters to the Editor" section, but I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you. They've had years to evaluate your eletronics and have not done so. Even when you have mitigated their excuse that products had to be purpose built and not modifications. As far as I know, your products and your company meet every criteria that Stereophile has established for evaluation, except for the unwritten criteria of heavy advertising! Unfortunately, JA's experience will just reinforce his opinion that AVA only "modifies" Hafler and Dynaco equipment. Sure, he knows better, but will still claim plausible deniability because evaluating AVA or any other qualified manufactuer who does not advertise heavily just is not part of Stereophile's agenda. Thank goodness for the Internet, AC, and general word of mouth advertising that gets the truth out there to all who are willing to have an open mind. Hell, if you don't get the letter published, maybe we all can write JA until it is done. I let my subscription run out 2 years ago because I was tired of reading about Musical Fidelity every damn issue. Hang in there, we're with you!
