Home Critic's Corner

Discuss a review. Provide constructive feedback. Talk to the industry.

Strongly disagree

I'm not gonna claim Stereophile is perfect but they are much more transparent than TAS. Just look at how JA and the others regularly answer their critics on this forum. IIRC, Stereophile once had an comparable situation to the Nordost debacle; the involved writer was sacked. Stereophile actually has policies in place to reduce, if not prevent, misbehavior and they appear to enforce those policies. Beyond debate, Stereophile's measurements set them apart from any print mag in North America.

I personally enjoy Stereophile's writers much more than TAS'. The last several TAS I've read entertained me for <30 min. Even a "crappy" issue of Stereophile can keep my interest for at least an hour and most issues I spend 2-4 h with. That's a pretty good deal for a buck an issue. Finally, Stereophile has several writer's whose ears I trust as I've shared their opinions regarding reviewed equipment that I've also heard.
