1. Americans are more suspicious and resentful of "authority" than Europeans. For example, Our Constitutional rights protect us from our government(s), whereas many constitutions in European countries are based on the idea that governments are meant to protect people.
2. A strong belief that "truth" can be found only through the complete independence of the truth tellers from authority (and economic incentives).
3. An element of grumpiness combined with an American delight to indulge in constitutionally protected "unpopular speech" of all kinds.
4. Reality: reviewers pull their punches and replace them with pillow pats.

Hi i see but this is much more down to the earth
It is just an issue of intellectual honesty
Lets think how complex can be an audio chain
Source, cablings, amp, speakers, listening room, recordings .. quality of the mains.
One detects a bad sound and the culprit is with certainty located in only one element of the chain ? absolutely no doubt/mention about the other elements ?
An element that in various other occasions has been beyond reproach ?
I see a ill-concealed willing to discredit a brand saying that their totl unit is unbearable.
This is more than unfair.
Kind regards,

While what you say is true in many cases, a) most dealers don't give us the opportunity to undertake this kind of investigation, b) grumpiness (again), and c) no one worth their salt pays much attention to these kind of remarks.
