If I do what you say then I can't follow your recommendation.I read them for so many reasons.I keep "all" the back issues for reference. The good reviewer who "is" trying to convey an idea of a piece under perusal can be an invaluable aid.I think of them as "my" research assistants in print,extra eyes and ears allowing me to cover more ground efficiently.In the final I will do as some implore,"judge for yourself".
It is nice to have someone "split hairs" and document measurements for me.Putting it out there under heavy fire is deeply appreciated by "this A-hound".If most measure well,then call it an quality assurance test for manufacturing competence.
Even if they are not one hundred percent,100% of the time it's nice to have a touchstone. I Monday Quarterback as badly as anyone else.
Meaningless for you ok I respect that.My 1st system was many class"C" pieces back in 95'and when I plugged it all in you may have had me in your camp.Over the years taking what I've learned en'route to now, that same system much improved still functions never having needed repair.Thanks Reviewermen ~B^)
