Except maybe for the elaborate cable roundtable once published by Sounds Like...

And which of those cables is available today? Which was available even two years after the reviews? Or a year?

  Not, however, to denigrate Listener.

  We did multi - reviewer surveys of groups of similar components at Listener all the time. They were very well received by the readers.

    We do and have done many reviews by multiple reviewers and even came up with a new format for cable reviews. We also have done blind shootouts.
    
    We are in the process of working with a large Audio Society to expand our ideal of multiple reviewers, rooms, and systems for one product. It can be done. Just takes some hard work and that passion for audio that some think does not exist these days.

    ...the last equipment review I wrote for TAS was a comment on REG's Thiel 7.2 loudspeaker review in 2000.
    
    Another writer (Tom Miiller?) also wrote a comment on that review.
