I feel your pain.
I am also a "dealer" for RBH, but most likely significantly smaller in scope than you and most dealers because being a dealer is mostly a "hobby" to me. My bread and butter is being a pharmacist.
But my enthusiasm for RBH products was way before I actually officially became a RBH dealer.
Years ago before I went CRAZY and bought Linkwitz Orion 3.2.1, Revel Salon2, B&W 802 D2, Phil3, KEF 201/2, and few other speakers, I posted on Audioholics that I thought the RBH T2 (even before the SX-T2 came out) was the best sounding speaker I have ever heard in terms of overall SQ (but was just too ugly
).
But now that I am officially a "dealer" I have to watch what I post or I will not hear the end of it. Before I became a dealer I would make all kinds of recommendations on speakers. It seems 75% of my posts was about spending other people's money.
So now my number of posts have significantly reduced.
It doesn't matter if I thought RBH sounded awesome YEARS BEFORE I became a dealer. I just can't say that very loud any more. Sad, but true.
So I feel your pain.
It's truly not as fun being a dealer on the forum because you have to watch what you say a lot more than if you were just a fellow member.
I was even a moderator for Audioholics before I officially became a dealer. But I had to relinquish that role due to conflict of interest. Oh, the pain.
