What does "zerogain" mean?

wondering...:SLEEP:

 

Well, literally "zero gain" mains, no gain, whether in techincal terms (including hifi) or just general terms. However you probably knew that already Why is the site called ZeroGain?

Well, there used to be a HiFi/music forum called GrooveHandle (RIP) which closed down, for reasons I can't be bothered to go into here, and so that everyone who was on GrooveHandle still had a place to post about similar stuff, I setup a similar forum here at my own domain, zerogain.com.

I didn't choose that domain name for any particular reason other than it sounded kind of cool and vaguely meant something and I'd spent the previous 2 or 3 days searching in vain for a decent domain name that hadn't already been taken and just couldn't be bothered any more. It actually was the suggestion of a friend of mine who's quite good at coming up with random things like that!

The domain, and my website(s) (also hosted here) were around a long time before the forum and it was the easiest and quickest thing to do to create the forum here where I had a load of free webspace and an existing domain and hosting arrangement that had good MySQL and PHP support.
