RE: i figured with Atkinson's endorsement of the Vandersteen 7's it was game over for all other speakers

But Atkinson's quotes are in Vandersteen 7A speaker advertisements.

The unintelligent or naive viewing those ads are likely to think it's a credible endorsement.

Those who should know better should not tolerate such nonsense as it does nothing to improve the credibility of an industry that already lacks credibility, ethics, and ultimately performance.

Atkinson's endorsement says far more about him, his ears, his credentials, and Stereophile magazine than he obviously thought it would. Oh, and his tastebuds too, because I'm going to assume he was eating his favorite ice cream when he was listening to the Vandersteens.
