@audioman58 and one of them is Steve Guttenberg. He said so himself. Steve actually stated recently-ish that if a product he has would be getting a bad review from him, he opts to send the unit back to manufacturer and skips doing a review. His stated reason was not wanting to take part in a taking down or hurting a business. He simply prefers to only review things that will be a good review… I’ve seen Steve hit the nail right on the head describing a unit I am also familiar with, like the OP says, too. With that said, I don’t think he’s untrustworthy just because he likes to review in a positive manor. He’s still gets it right and does still mention ‘negatives’ that may be helpful to someone.
Guttenberg reviews Volti Razz
Just watched youtube review by Steve Guttenberg on the Volti Razz Decorator. (no veneer). In my view he sums up all I've been enjoying with these wonderful speakers. Dynamic, sweet sounding, engaging, musical...
Decorator Razz, $2k less than standard Razz. DIY stain and seal. Pretty darn cool in my book!
