Noob question - Stereophile "Class" rating

Paris Hilton.
I believe she should have been called Sarajevo Motel....or something to that effect.

C5150,

I would turn that around Paris Hilton is a shell of a woman = F, you my friend are at least a B+.

If Stereophile reviewed more equipment then it would have crediblity, but since it only reviews it's favorites every year and ignores others than class "A" has no meaning.

On a scale of 1-10 both C5150 and Paris Hilton weigh the same as a duck - burn them!

Stereophile serves up opinions. Some of them have more merit than Audiogoners, some do not. At least when Stereophile offers an opinion it is based on time spent with the item. Many time on Audiogon people offer opinions on gear they have never touched.

In order to know sound ....do I have to be aware of it ,or should i need to a/b everything on earth to know it.

If i were to ask you ,what did you eat last nov.13 would you remember. Then stereo mags would be in the same boat if they tried to recall the way it sounded.

There is one thing man has a great agreement on in this society. He believes that books and mags know more than he does.

Kinda like the Academy Awards; who cares?
