Rank Stereophile, & why no Von Schweikert reviews

Yeah, I'd like to do a turntable review. :-)

Trejla,
As usual, intelligent, thoughtful,insightful, well prepared thoughts.

I would have to believe, based on years of following them that everyone at Stereophile has 'honor' as a mantra.

My issue with Stereophile as it relates to 'ranking them' centers around simple business etiquette. From LSA's perspective it seems that the owners/editor of Stereophile should at least pay a courtesy visit to those who advertise with them, while at the preeminent show of the year--even if they don't write about us. I would think that they would have a passing interest in the people and products that they highlight in their advertising sections each month.
Moreover, what other time are we all this close in terms of simple geography?
We were virtually ignored by (what is currently) our only advertising outlet. Insofar as I am concerned this is unacceptable in any business relationship.
They can claim that they were busy if they like but I can trump them there--sending six pairs of speakers, four amplifiers and nine people from three states to Vegas--then entertaining hundreds of dealers, distributors and other attendees for four days.

I am really discouraged and disappointed by their snub.

Say what you will about Art, and I happen to think he is currently the best thing at Stereophile by far

Amen. His contributions to Stereophile are the one thing I can look forward to, and can count on being consistantly the most enjoyable and thought provoking every month. Humanistic, wholistic, written with intelligence and wit and always thoroughly enjoyable: Makes it worth the cost of a subscription in my book.

Lrsky, you paid your money and they ran your ads. Unless they lied about their circulation you got exactly what you paid for. It would seem to me that anything beyond running the ads as promised would be unethical. I don't understand why you're upset.

I agree with Onhwy61,And besides, every minute spent in your room left less time for drinking scotch or hanging out with Antony Michalson...
