...new or used?If used, you're paying the same or less than the reviewer, for equipment he purchased after using the equipment for a few months.
Industry accomodation pricing is available to EVERYONE in the audio industry on pretty much all equipment, and that includes the audio press.
Reveiwers get that pricing on any equipment whether they've reviewed it or not.
Since they can buy any audio equipment with that pricing, how does that affect their objectivity in reviewing a component?
Little jealousy there?
