We never read "it's a good product but I would never buy it because this and that is so much better at the price point".Well allowing for something that says basically the same thing if not a verbatim copy of your hypothetical quote, even the most recent issue contains an example. For example Fremer just reviewed the Minimax Phono Preamplifier and concluded at the its price point he considered the Era Gold V was a much better choice. He was more impressed with the Minimax as a MC stage and indicated it represented considerable value in that mode.
I'm certain there are other examples, the Greenburg comparative reviews for example where the winners and losers (to be blunt) were clearly identified. I bet dimes to dollars any number of more active (than me) Stereophile readers could point to more recent examples.
