and does not send samples for review to Stereophile. Perhaps not everyone is reminded at each review what JA has observed before:
"As I have written before in these pages, measuring physically large speakers with in-room quasi-anechoic techniques is in some ways a fruitless task. The usual assumption, that the measuring microphone is very much farther away than the largest dimension of the speaker being measured, is clearly wrong. Yet without access to a large anechoic chamber costing many hundreds of thousands of dollars, in-room measurement techniques are all we have to rely on."
That summarized the 3.6 review conducted back in 2000 - which I believe was the most recent example.
