Audio critics should publish their hearing tests

I sent the folowing to the editors of STEREOPHILE- and received no reply.

Dear Editor:

For the sake of honesty, transparency and credibility, I propose that your reviewers post results of their hearing tests- standard as well as extended high-frequency audiometry.

Your magazine publishes evaluations of audio equipment by your reviewers, and I think it would be only fair to readers- who might be spending large sums for equipment based in part on reviews they read in Stereophile- if those readers knew something about the hearing acuity of those reviewers.

If you decide to avoid providing this information, I'd like to know why.

Best Regards,

Science doesn't care what you believe.
