RE: Unfair magazine reviews

To each his own (opinion), and while I have been reading WhatHiFi on and off for decades, I find the opinion quite fair for a few reasons... the main ones:

Those bookshelf speakers are $7,000.

To quote the article itself:

At this level there is no shortage of alternatives that specialise in uncovering every last detail in a recording.

I agree. At $7,000, one has a lot of options. Heck, the stands cost more than most (what most would consider hi-fi) bookshelf speakers.

Note in the same blurb the reviewer notes:

It's much rarer to find anything that makes listening to that music so much of a thrill.

I read that as highly recommended, regardless of any x/5.0 stars...

Personally, I think WhatHiFi is really recommending them.
