Strange that it is only now starting to get to you. I don't see that TAS has changed very much in its philosophy. When HP's credo is that measurements and technical info simply do not matter, what do you expect? That the people at TAS will now start to measure equipment and to present well researched cogent articles on the basics of sound reproduction and radio wave transmission like in "Audio" of yore? While I agree with your way of looking at things, reforming TAS is not in the cards. When the alternate mags started as "underground" papers they had the establishment of "High Fidelity", "Stereo Review" and "Audio" to run up against. Now there is nothing of the sort left and, somehow, you are looking to the people primarily responsible for making "subjective" audio the dominant philosophy in things audio to become more "objective"? You may have better luck in finding virtue in a brothel.
