Thats comedy rigth there ,how the editor and most of sterephiles readership does not pick up the ineviteble conclusion regarding the disparate results in measurements vs sighted testing of products . Every article is living proof the sighted testing does not work , and they do this monthly . It's there in the magazine every month ! And almost no one sees it for what it is . A glowing review with fancy wine tester terms and then a measurements showing something else :) -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
