All excellent answers with valid points that i think we can all relate to.
Now for the next question: What mags DO review products from smaller companies ?
Since i'm asking, i'll start off with by saying "Bound For Sound". While Marty does cover a lot of better known names, he does throw in gear and accessories from "no names" every once in a while. Some of these companies are so small that he has had a hard time contacting some of these companies after receiving their products for review. In that respect, i have to admit that buying "sight unseen" with who knows what type of warranty or customer support might be a scary thing. Then again, at least Marty lets you know that kind of stuff right off the bat. Sean
