The "how many reviews it got" rule

This is my rule of thump when I purchase components online
without having heard them first.  If a component received a
lot of reviews, chances are the component is very good.
I mean the component has to be good to attract a lot of
reviewers. Most reviewers probably wouldn’t
bother to review something he doesn’t like in the first place.

I don't see a correlation unless perhaps it is a masterpiece that everyone wants to review.
Generally, I think I understand what Michael Fremer says. His preferred sound may not be exactly mine, at least not fully, but it doesn't matter. I mean, I would get that Continuum table and Ypsilon phono he has but he could keep his Wilsons with Tara cables and DartZeel amps for his bloody self.

Elizabeth, $7k for a digital player ? No way. Couple of days ago I saw used Gryphon for $2600, that's reasonable and it will probably outperform just about any single box player.
