I responded humorously because I felt your point was self-evidently
incorrect. But as you have now repeated the criticism, I'll try again:

The majority of Stereophile's review team, past and present, play musical
instruments or sing in vocal ensembles. Some of us have done so
professionally. One of our team's day job is being a classical conductor
and music director. Some of us have played on commercially released
recordings; one of us even had a CD released of his own compositions.
In addition, all of us have collections of recordings that are worth more
than our audio systems and have a deep, abiding love of music.

So what makes you think we don't have what you call a "Musical IQ"?
