Any Advice for those Listening to Youtube Reviewers?


I’d like to recognize that it takes a great set of self promotional skills to become successful in the Youtube world. That said most of the audio reviewers I’ve seen don’t have the experience to review, or the kind of space that would really allow gear to shine.

Most of them start of with K-Mart like gear, did their formula and got popular, and jumped far up the audio food chain. Of course everything they review is going to be great compared to the Service Merchandise system they sold last year.

Just throwing it out there that people should be careful listening to these guys that are mostly working for the views/money (not that some aren’t passionate).

Anyone else seeing this?

Well for starters YouTube reviews are more about the reviewer then the equipment as always, but that’s Entertainment so it shouldn’t surprise you and hopefully not bother you. As for the equipment they choose to review, and the overwhelming positive opinions they have on products, yes they do slant mostly positive and keep them in good graces with manufacturers and garner views. Again it’s no mystery.

But yeah room treatments is a big deal, I feel that if you don’t have a treated room then it kind of defeats the purpose of what you’re doing. But then again maybe some people want the more everyday man YouTube reviewer to give them product suggestions. And again there’s reviewers who do just that.

I enjoy YouTube reviewers rather then other junk I could be watching.
