I know a person who works for a world know company. He was with some collegues in England at What Hifi. When they wanted 5 stars for their product they had to pay an amount of 4 digits.
At the end they didn’t pay and they got 3 stars. Tests often doesn’t garantee you anything.
The question is; when is a test objective and honest? I know many products with great reviews who were very poor. And also products with average reviews who were exeptional good.
I think you need a new and different way of perspective to judge audio products. And you know why?
Because they way it goes now in 10 years the audio market will decrease for sure.
It is not the question if it needs to change, but how because you cannot wait too long!
