The measurements will continue under the new editor.

We will take the reviewers like Herb at their word.

And then each of us draws his own conclusions.

I liken it to adult entertainment - don't ask for training wheels, because then you rob yourself of much of the pleasure.

As to those who cite the ASR website and its measurements-above-and-beyond-all-other-criteria credo as a corrective to Stereophile's modus operandi, the sound quality profiles of the gear ASR measures are 1 to 2 sentence afterthoughts... and you think that is a better approach to informing potential buyers of how a particular product might actually SOUND in their systems?

Respectfully, I think not.
