I have yet to read a compelling reason why there is not one, given some of the other smaller forums clearly listed here.
Why no Sony Forum

Per the moderator's comment at http://audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/why-no-sony-forum.476187/page-2#post-6180508, there's a good reason for it:I've been mystified as to no Sony Forum.
...
The omission of a Sony Forum is a glaring one IMO.
Per the moderator's comment at http://audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/why-no-sony-forum.476187/page-2#post-6180508, there's a good reason for it:
Seems reasonable to me.
"Sony is an existing company, currently selling gear. It maintains its own discussion forums, and there are several others as well. We have no contacts with Sony (although we'd like to), and they've so far shown little interest in supporting their vintage fans. If things change, we'd consider opening a forum. As things sit, it's not a good use of our very limited resources."

Even with it being an older post, I would think the prohibition against arguing with mods still in effect. Furthermore, with that post the thread was closed.
I see no such rule. There is a rule about commenting on moderation in public, which is completely different than questioning a reason or explanation of something not related to an action that a Moderator has taken. Just because something was discussed six years ago does not mean that it cant at least be discussed again. It is the nature of sites like this one to evolve and change.
...I think Sony's tendency to only occasionally dip its toes in the water as far as music-centric quality product goes works against it...
Personally, I think Sony's tendency to only occasionally dip its toes in the water as far as music-centric quality product goes works against it for rating a forum. Others will likely disagree,
Disagree?
Sony is responsible for some serious advances in music-centric technology. Technology of the most music-centric kind.
Just repeating the term hoping to perhaps grasp some subtlety I might be missing? It happens.

Sony was cutting-edge more than most, by a long shot. Audiophile grade too be sure.

Of course we could play the "Pretty Pictures of Audio Gear" game for a long time; so that's it for me.
In any case, we all like pretty pictures of audio gear.
You might say I am someone who definitely
disagrees with your statement.
As to a new forum, I have always been curious on the notion, and stated my thoughts earlier, but should I require some specific advice, especially of a technical nature, I would have no issue inquiring in the Solid State forum.
What current Sony system would you choose to buy over anything else in the same price range,
Too many sub forums already,although that Yorx forum intrigues me.
Soundesign and Lloyd's and Yorx, we could call it the SLY forum.Perhaps we could add Soundesign and Lloyd's in as well!
