True, Mb ... I merely posted because there was BATMAQN bemoaning the poor response from 148,000 SNA members.

Snoopy8 Posted January 18, 2020 Author Share Posted January 18, 2020 As they say, any publicity is good publicity! We now have 155 voters, not many polls get this far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snoopy8 Posted December 18, 2020 Author Share Posted December 18, 2020 Thank you for the 166 responses. Time to revive this thread. and let's see whether we can get to 200. For stereo, just over half of us have American (83/164) and British (83) gear. The Japanese (76) came third. Good to know that 40% (65) of us own Australian gear. Two thirds with HT have Japanese (75/112) gear. When I first started this thread a few years ago, most of my spend went to Australian made products. My initial vote was: Stereo: Australian (most dollars), Korean, American, Taiwanese (yes, Synology! All music on NAS. Note that Taiwanese cannot be added to poll, reached max of 20 entries). HT: Australian (most dollars), Canadian, American, British, Japanese Since then, have done 2 major simplifications of stereo gear, transitioning through Dutch and French gear. HT has also changed. Sad to say, the dollar share of Australian products has dropped . Stereo: German (most dollars), Australian, American, Taiwanese, British, Japanese,, Chinese, Korean. HT: British (most dollars), Japanese, American, Australian When you vote, include all your gear, cables, power etc. Don't forget software players, software processing as well as streaming services (e.g. Tidal, Spotify, Netflix for HT etc.) and streaming devices including phones, tablets for controlling streamers, source of music.
