Michael Fremer leaves Analog Planet

As a Stereophile subscriber, I am glad to hear this. The magazine needs to feature younger reviewers with fresher perspectives and better ears. I myself am close to the age of MF and strongly suspect his hearing has diminished significantly over the decades he has been reviewing audio equipment.

Maybe someone could explain to me why this reviewer ( Fremer) has such a fan base? While many of us would agree with his points on occasion, his attitude to folks who disagree with him, or call into question his ’expert status’, leaves a lot to be desired, IMO.

He's the Jeremy Clarkson of Audio

He's a whole bag of dicks.

Everyone has their flaws. I'm just glad he is continuing to do what he loves. He'll have influence at TAS which should be good for him as well as the organization. After all, it's not like he is abandoning ship & setting up camp with "Audio Science Review".
