flabbergasted with reviews on speakers


I read speaker reviews  as i think they are the personal end of the signal i hear alibiet the source what i think is most important. They are terrible.They give no room size they are listening in.treated or not and what room size they recommend is important. sguare foot please.Ihave purchased speakers to big for my room and now buy down a size from what they say.They audition speakers that from my videos on you tube are placed stacked  against there racks or pushed against wall and cluttered amongs other stereo equipment in a small room i get it .i have been to persons small farm house that had an infiniti stack with 334 levinson monoblocks who bought this on review this was in a 10 x 12 bedroom and was a respected audiogoner! I think we are oversold in this hobby i miss dealers but they have not heard it all review suck look at there rooms they are pathetic.Are speaker sensitivity real or is it to sell more expensive amps.If  first watt is most important why isnt 50 watt tbr  amp enough for an 87 db speaker.

$$$ is what reviews are about.

no bad words will be said about paying advertisements, especially those which have a reputation of being Godlike.

 Many of these PAID reviewers do just that, take the money for an absolute great review of speakers, amps, preamps, ,…..

oh wait, those 700$ cedar cable lifters give me more defined bass, less hard etched treble, the midrange gave me the “being their” sensation, the woodwind was if I could hear the preemptive breath of the player, and I could hear the fingers grabbing the fret, then it all,came into focus, as the bow lightly struck the strings with the subtle touch of a hummingbird on my cheek. It was something I’ve never felt before with my Klipsch,cornerhorns, yet these 90K MBL gives me the sensation of the pianist begging me for a dollar at a cigar smoke filled pub in soho. It was miraculous to say the least. 
  I’m sold, these speakers are some of the very best I’ve listened too, with my 4,800$ cables, cable bridges, the fluorescent green bees wax and mercury fuses really brought the speakers to life. 
 

 

Nope, not calling it a lie, it’s just a bloated bit of horse apples, like most reviewers.

they will up their selected words for a review. For the companies in their rag, and financial supporters.

if you wanna call it a lie, then so be it. They do elevate most reviews to make the reviewed products seem better. This has always been the way of the reviewers (most).

 They will not bad mouth paid advertisers, or they will lose those huge checks, and these select reviewers, know how to butter up companies. 
rarely have I read a review which dumped on the product
