Stereophile, no more bench tests????!!!!

I always preferred Stereophile over TAS because of JA's measurements! I will miss this part of the magazine!

Good bye, Stereophile.

Yeah TAS was for audiophiles who like airy fairy poetic licence to describe the sound and nothing else. I like reviewers that have a pair.

TAS "reviewers", with their "chocolate", "caramel" colorations, and "yin/yang" & astrological references. Too "new age" for me. Subjective taken too far. 

In the latest issue of Stereophile, there are bench tests for many of the equipment that are being reviewed.  The Parasound Halo was reviewed  by Kal Rubinson in the "Music in the Round" section and there were never measurements done on equipment reviewed in that section.  The Mark Levinson am was reviewed in the "Follow Up Section" at the end of the magazine.
