Which is the best audio magazine?

I am getting back into high-end audio after a 20 yr hiatus and trying to educate myself on all the new technologies, sources & equipment choices.
What is currently the most objective & reliable audio publication that will support my research efforts?
Thank you.

I’ve always liked Dick Olsher, and there’s a lot to like in the writing of Art Dudley. Both are avid music lovers with well-developed listening skills, and also technically-informed. Because of John Atkinson's bench tests, Stereophile is imo indispensable.

Hi-Fi Choice and reviewer Johnny Darko.
I'll add 'Z reviews' on youtube to.

We need comparative reviewing. Like they do in car magazines. Ever notice how every Stereophile review is for one single item and it’s always awesome?

Not every review is about one single item.  See the Border Patrol DAC review.  While they didn't review the Benchmark DAC3 HGC in this article, they did compare the DACs..
