Oh boy, thank god we have great people like Mike in this crazy but wonderful hobby of ours.

Mike is one of the good guys that does it for the love of music/audio rather than financial gain. What a gentleman and a half he is and I feel so fortunate to have met him.

What all my friends (south of the border!) have to remember - Mike is not only the founder of this fantastic forum (The best one out there IMO) he has a no BS, great audio shop - Suncoast Audio, representing some of best brands in the business.

I'm sure all the forum members that have dealt with Mike all came away happy they did. Let's use this thread to show our appreciation.

Cheers,

Mark.
 
Thanks Mark! Getting to be such good friends with Mike has been a blessing in my life. We talk almost daily about audio and a host of other things. He's one of the most honest and loyal people I've met.

He started this forum only because of the love he has for our hobby. He surely isn't in it for the money. Suncoast Audio was started for the very same reasons, his passion for our hobby!
 
Mark & Mark - wow! Thank you for the kind words. I'm blushing over here. [emoji173]️

Mike well I've never met him but I have purchased a Lumin from him. I found Mike was a pleasure to work with and I found from our dealings that Mike is a person of his word and that my fellow sharks is ok in my book. :thumbsup:
 
Mike has become a great friend. I am happy to say that. Thanks Mike!
 
Mike has replied to all my numerous emails promptly and we've talked on the phone a few times. I had the pleasure of meeting him at RMAF this year.

Mike has been very generous with his time and knowledge! Thanks Mike!
 
I feel the same way. Mike and I met on another forum and instantly became friends. I thought he was crazy for starting the forum. I picked the wrong word, definitely passionate is more correct. It's a blast every day and audioshark is my obsession now.

Thanks Mike!
 
Mike was my first forum Friend
And was also the person that help me to gain more friends

Great site, Lovely guy. Permanent snowbird cunuck.


Thanks for the Shark, Mike. Fun place.
 
I've talked to Mike a number of times on numerous topics over the phone and had the pleasure of meeting him once up here in Boston. Stand up guy and a great person to deal with in our hobby. Continued great success to him.
 
I'll gladly add to the chorus. I recently had the pleasure of doing business with Mike and found it to be truly positive experience. This is also my favorite audiophile forum. From where I'm sitting, the accolades are well-deserved.
 
Mike is extremely knowledgeable, generous with his time, and a man of integrity, which can sometimes be a rare thing in this hobby/industry.

I feel lucky that he carries so many brands I particularly enjoy.
 
I'm glad Mark started this thread. Indeed, Mike has done a terrific job building this site and starting his audio business. He's also become a good friend to me and many here.

Wish you great success Mike!
 
I'm glad I checked out this thread. While I haven't met Mike yet, my impression of him is very positive, and that is based on his forum, the tone of the forum, and a couple of business transactions. I am glad he changes speakers like I change socks, since it enabled me to grab a pair of Magico S5 speakers at a great price.

Even though when I saw his ad my judgement was clouded since I was listening to music and drinking beer, I realized it was a great deal, and sent off a reply. The next day when I woke up my first thought was, "What did I do last night!". In my world, this is a lot of money, since these speakers were more than I paid for my car bought new. I checked my email, and he said SOLD. While I was totally nervous wiring a stranger all that money, he made the transaction as easy and stress free as possible, and a week later the speakers arrived in perfect condition. I still feel this is one of the best big purchases I have ever made, although I wish I could have used my credit card to get the points. :)

My other purchase was the Lumin S1 from his business, and that too was a stress free purchase that is giving me more pleasure than it costs.

Thanks Mike. Keep it up, but buy a pair of S7s, and sell them a few months later. :)
 
I echo many of the comments here. I only wish I knew about Mike sooner. That being said every purchase I have made through Mike has been exceptional. Love the site, and I think he is selfless as a dealer. Totally recommended.

Thanks!
 
Mike,

Thanks for making this the best audio forum out there.....sharing your knowledge and experience...and carrying great lines of vetted gear...

Thanks and all the best,

Tom
