Stereophile or Absolute Sound

I have subscribed to both in the past. Maybe it's just me but now I almost cannot tell the difference. Which do you prefer and why.

Don't take yourself too seriously. My vote for a currently circulating pub. though would be Hifi+, I'm afraid. Happy Listening!

Currently, I'm only subscribing to Stereophile. I do enjoy "Sam's Space". Yes - I know he shills for way to many products - but he's an entertaining read most of the time. I suspect I will give TAS a try as I'm on the upgrade path again after moving up to some nice JM Lab Be speakers recently.

I was tired of the always kind reviews and stopped subscribing to either. I recently returned to Stereophile (cost) and not much has changed. I must admit that I do anticipate the "recommended Components" issue of Stereophile. The Letter to the editor posts have not changed much either. Maybe I'm the one that has changed. Nonetheless, I will continue reading and subscribing to Stereophile, and Absolute Sound. As always I appreciate your feedback
