Is there a thread that is related to this that I have missed?

Nevermind, I found JA's remarks about him leaving to join Audioquest. Good move for Stephen, I hope. I can't imagine anyone more perfect to be in charge of "communications" than Stephen.

So, does this mean that I can get a discount on my next AQ cable purchase?

Best wishes, Stephen!

Same here. Stephen and Ariel were both a real breath of fresh air, I wish them both all the best in their future endeavors.

And I eagerly look forward to the next generation of young talent JA will nurture at Stereophile, just hope we won't have to wait too long!

This does not belong in the Entry level forum.

One of the more general ones would be more apropo.
