Stereophiles 2021 Recommended Components is now on line.

Is the Stereophile Recommended list still relevant?

@testpilot Insofar as the internet is filled with lists of rankings of products for people buying them, why wouldn't it be? In other words, not sure what you mean by "relevant" because which audience *counts* in your view.

Are the reviews completed independent and unbiased, or have they become a byproduct of paid advertising and industry pressure?  Personally, I find them interesting from an entertainment standpoint, but no longer consider them as a trusted source.  I do however, find their measurements part of the review quite valid and informative.
