Overall, I would have to say that I like Hi Fi+ best. The reviews run pretty long at times, but I think that the reviewers, like Roy Gregory for example, really try to give you a feel for the way the component sounds. I usually feel like I have a good context when I am finished reading. As a plus,the photography is great. I remember the days when the Absolute Sound didn't miss an opportunity to snipe at Stereophile, now it seems that they have become an inferior version of them.
