In Reply to: ..and then do you sack a reviewer who gives a positive review to a poorly measuring component? posted by 13th Duke of Wymbourne on May 29, 2024 at 16:50:29:
Your point has been on my mind for quite some time.
These days, we're measuring very in-depth almost all of the gear we get in. If there are gross problems with the equipment that the reviewer should've caught -- not just sonic, but functional, too -- we get rid of them if it is repeated. Pretty simple. And it has happened.
What's surprising, though, is that in most cases -- 90% -- things that turn up in measurements that should be obvious do turn up in the written reviews. In other words, a positive correlation in that regard.
But like I said, it's been on my mind and we're looking at ways to make the subjective side more stringent. I think that with so many reviewers these days -- print, online, YouTube, etc. -- there's a market for that.
