The problem with all of this is that it is misleading. A reader could conclude that this review is some sort of conclusion that the Valhalla is some piece of crap and the cheap SS amp is some sort of great bargain.
The problem is he does not repeat that his conclusions are all on an old defunct product. If that were the case he would not draw the conclusions he drew and made the less than professional comments he made about the product.
It is not an honest review. I suspect its a personal opinion disguised as a scientific review. Maybe I missed it but I do not recall the part of the review where he listened to the amps in question and makes listening notes.
Without listening tests I find those sort of reviews as the kind of garbage that Stereo Review used to push out. It looks like science but how can it be science when it is a product that you listen to and no listening is done?
Odd science,
