Yes, thatโ€™s a network switch marketed to Audiophiles.ย

There are one or two members here who personally knew Peter Aczel and he had notoriously very bad hearing, to the point where he really couldn't hear readily discernible differences that everyone else could.

Back in the day, before I knew that, I read The Audio Critic and took solace in my modest system and wrote off all the more expensive stuff as just that: expensive. I know better now.

I make my own amplifiers and get to choose to over-design: resistors rated for several times the wattage they will dissipate, Polypropylene power supply capacitors rated at more than twice the voltage (2.3 kV rating foe a 1 kV power supply) transformers chosen the same way. I don't have to worry about electrolytic capacitors' limited life expectancy. I avoid marketed junk physics for cables costing thousands of dollars.
"Financial interests" link in the beginning of above 6moons article lists what people do in their lives, but does not really state that they have no conflict of interest in this particular matter. A little unusual approach, one could say.
I don't know of any other review sites out there that list any kind of financial or conflict of interest in the header of the reviewers bio. Some do go so far as to mention in in the body of the review if pertinent so I can't see why you'd bring that up.

All the best,

"...I can't see why you'd bring that up."


Simply because they put it just under the names of reviewers and before any equipment that it was tested with. It appears that revealing "financial interests" was very important to them. I can't see why you'd skip that.

I also do not remember noticing "financial disclosure" of any kind in audio reviews which made this one even more odd. Maybe it was just a nice, but clumsy, try to appear fully legitimate.
Hey, if you have issues with 6moons, contact them directly.ย 
I'm not their spokesperson.ย
