At least Stereophile does measurements and usually compares a review product to something comparable. TAS? Nuthin’. Hell, many times they don’t even bother listing the gear in the reviewer’s reference system. What??? Pure advertising and utter garbage and totally worthless “reviews” IMO.
The MoFi Mess and TAS rolling over for them
Totally disgusted with TAS opinions on the mofi mess. They're basically saying it was okay to dupe us. Jonathan Valin actually says as long as it sounds good...
What a sell out to the audiophile community. TAS is nothing but a glorified product catalogue for their advertisers.

Facts known by most, not all. 1. Mobile Fidelity owns & distributes a number of audio brands: https://mofidistribution.com/our-brands/ 2. Mobile Fidelity is owned by Music Direct, who distributes and deals a whole lot more audio brands: I encourage people to flip through TAS and see what the percentage of ads come from one of the brands that are listed in the two links above and come to your conclusions on whether there is any true separation between church and state in the support for the brands covered in editorial vs the advertising. |
