Because it is more relevant here, I'm breaking the rule and cross-posting (with editing):-You are familiar with my reference system.
-I'm substituting the component under review for the one I use regularly.
-Now I will play a recording of acoustic music that I have described many times and that is available for you to purchase.
-I will now describe what I heard, and how it differs from the reference.
-The component brings me closer to (or further from) live acoustic sound as I recall it in this or that respect; I go to such performances frequently.
-Additional discussion.
Compare that with the drivel passing for reviews and published virtually everywhere these days.
