It is a business. The reviews are for information purposes only. They are not written to say this one is better than that one. They compare what the reviewer hears in their system, not yours. Use them as a guide. Once you read a review, go hear that component at a dealer to see if you hear what the reviewer is writing about. If you hear what the reviewer comments on, then you can understand the reviewer and how they hear sound. Also, small companies and start up companies do not get reviews, understand why?
Happy Listening.
