The Audio Science Review (ASR) approach to reviewing wines.

I believe Amir started with good intentions to provide useful information. The emergence of a vocal, sometimes arrogant and nasty, ASR following turns many off.  Amir has done very little to rein in the most offensive ASR faithful. 

Amir himself automated a search process for mention of ASR in other forums so he could jump in to defend himself.  That defense typically involved him arguing everyone else is wrong, he is right, ad nauseum in a long and repetitive thread.  He defends that approach as justified due to so many attacks leveled against himself.  That is ironic considering how many times Amir and the ASR faithful have attacked other audio businesses as dishonest know nothings.

Amir promotes his technical knowledge as expansive and extensive.  Yet he asked Audio Precision to make their analyzer more "fool proof".  Amir claims vast technical knowledge, but is unable to reliably operate the AP analyzer.

Amir promotes Topping and other economical products as measuring well so they must sound good.  That is good information if it stopped there.  Often, Amir and the faithful insult others that choose to spend more as fools.  Ironic others are fools for spending as they choose while Amir owns personal audio equipment well into the 6 figure territory.  

Amir reveals his other business venture in order to claim immunization from any conflict of interest or bias.  He and ASR faithful frequently point to that transparency as inviolate fairness and independence.  Regardless, Amir is no more pure as the driven snow as any other reviewer.  

Finally, Amir would be better served to present is measurements and dispense with the chest thumping I am right, I am right, listen to me because I am right mantra.

Do something besides spewing nonsense.  Put forth a little effort and do the research yourself.

@devinplombier 

Now that’s a load of unsubstantiated BS - heavy on innuendo and MIA on facts.

All facts. Read many of the threads on ASR.  Name calling and personal attacks routine behavior.  Your comments follow the ASR model.

Amir jumped a thread here and went on and on and on posting numerous charts, graphs, and long verbiage. Amir himself mentioned the search algorithm.  Fact.

There is a video of Amir asking AP engineer to make the analyzer more "fool proof".  Fact.

Amir himself documents his personal system and talks about cost.  Fact.

Transparency about Amir's other business comes up in defense of his claimed absolute and unquestionable impartiality.  Fact.

Mostly you sound angry and butthurt.

You are hostile and butthurt by facts, not I.

It’s almost as if Amir had disparaged one of your products or something

I make no products of any kind.  You reveal yet another ASR minion tactic of leaping to a ridiculous assumption.

Neither do many of the members. IIRC Amir himself uses old ML class A monos, not high SINAD NCore or Purifi based products.

Don't recall many of the faithful taking Amir to task for owning a system well into the 6 figure range.  Anyone else spending that much is routinely labeled an "audiophool".

Fascinating how people with such short lives know SO much more than those of us who've been around twice as long as them.

Yes, the children always know more than the parents.  Those of us with some gray put in the work.  Particularly, those with musical training and experience who know what music is supposed to sound like!
