Love of music is base. Understanding of the equipment is paramount. Why? Because if you deign to review equipment, you must understand equipment. Does that take a degree? No. Some of the best designers in high-end history were not engineers. But if you want to be a reviewer, you need the cred, both tech chops and ears or you are just another blowhard... and there are too many of that breed to name, names. Such as HP, J.Scull and Corey what's his name... Oh and the biggest wind of all Mssr. S.Rochlin, who fails as both a reviewer and a journalist because he has nothing but air (lots of air) and opinion to contribute. I appreciate your wine reviews, but your ears mean nothing to me.
