Anthony (Tony) Cordesman has passed away

RIP Tony! He was a regular at the shop I worked at, Excalibur Audio in Olde Towne Virginia, he was a wonderful gentleman and a friend. I'll always hear him refer to the treble region as "upper octaves", he will be missed.

A fantastic reviewer and gentleman and scholar he will be missed RIP Mr Cordesman.

I never would have put the two together either.

Tony will be missed.

RIP

A great audio writer who always made sense making a well crafted and logical case for whatever he was talking about.

I remember him as a national security analyst or "talking head". Had no idea he also was a HiFi reviewer. Maybe I've read his reviews without paying attention to the byline.  May he rest in peace.
