Mindreading again, I see.

:-) I continue to be amazed by some people's need to
express opinions on subjects about which they have no
direct knowledge.

It's more likely, using criteria that you've used
when discussing Rupert Neve's comments about analog
vs. digital, that he just became too aged to tell
the difference between components. That would be far
more likely, right?

Gordon resigned as a Stereophile employee in 1999 for
a number of reasons, some to do with his compensation
package, others to do with his strong feeling that
the magazine should abandon coverage of 2-channel
audio components and recordings in favor of multi-
channel playback. Gordon was offered a position
at The Absolute Sound to write about that subject,
but that didn't pan out the way he expected. He left
that magazine at the end of 2003.

Gordon is basically retired these days. He has also
been having some health problems but currently
appears to be okay. We stay in touch. He still feels
that I made a strategic error in not changing
Stereophile along the lines he wanted in 1999.
