I thought most reviewers only selected gear they liked for review, and then described in detail why they liked. Since most reviewers are at least experienced audiophiles, I see no problem with reading how an experienced audiophile used a particular piece of gear and why they like it. In fact it;s enjoyable to me to read about it.I think most gear that is not upto it sonically just never gets reviewed. That's a screening process in itself, no?
I think some readers have expectations of reviewers who will trash gear, or rate it consumer reports style, but such reviewers after a while will never get any gear sent for review.Grazie
