Post Subject: A missing pointPosted by Romy the Cat on: 11/6/2014

Rowuk, I think you are missing the point. No one judge him as journalist who combine hobby and pleasure or judge him on any other matter. The person has passed away. However, it is not the HP the Person who has a legacy but a functional entity that HP took for years in one way or another shaping and running the industry. The absence of any more or less civilized critiques in audio is a part of his legacy. The idiotic integration of manufactures and revisers is his legacy. Disability of majority of audio people to talk about sound and if they do then to use meaningless vocabulary is his legacy. An army of directionless individual who unable navigate own audio actions unit somebody stick their noise is his legacy. Absurd amount of retards who fancy them audio journalist today – they are all his legacy. A very severe shortage of manufactures whop actually have own identity, integrity and ability to expels anything in audio is also HP's legacy and he was the one who for year breed mediocrity among audio maker and substituted it with own marketing Vaseline. So, if you feel that you never was exposed to mentioned above then you indeed did not deal with HP legacy. I need to say that I do not "blame" HP personally in above and in many other aspects I do not like in "his" Hight-End Audio but he for sure was a very visible figure and very much enabler.
