RE: By their fruits ye shall know them... .

Merry Christmas, John.

"I think that audio reviewers should be judged by the usefulness of their writing. Period....I think that an audio reviewer has to have ethics and a certain amount of humility, be capable of turning in good prose on time, and have a greater-than average awareness of the history of audio (both technology and its place in society) and understanding of basic audio engineering."

Amen. And I think it's greatly appreciated by his editor (not to mention manufacturers) if said writer adheres to a style commensurate with that of a great salesman. In other words, write something so delicious in style and substance that the reader feels compelled to get off his butt and go hear the product. Make the reader **want** the product.
