AaronS Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 my impression is that the bottom end of the audiophile stuff has improved immensely over the past twenty years too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AaronS Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 it's funny that you posted that. one of the many odd experiences I had shopping for a new stereo in manhattan was walking into a store that was listed as one of the official dealers for a product I was interested in only to meet the guy who reviewed that product for stereophile, who was taking to the salesman when I arrived. after half an hour of talking out of the side of his mouth he told me that the parts of his review that would have made me uninterested in the product were removed by his editor. he seemed to think that I was about to put our conversation on tmz, so I won't reveal anything more, but it's not that strange that a cursory googling will produce a glowing review of almost everything I looked at. at the end of our conversation he did mention that he owned decent speakers that retail for more than the budget I quoted for the whole system, so I guess I learned something.

AaronS Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 I'd name names but the whole solares incident revealed that this actually counts as posting something on the internet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
