There are reviewers who I trust, and then those who are in it for the wrong reasons, and obviously getting big kickbacks from companies for a good review. We’d be fooling ourselves to think otherwise. YouTube is full of both, and certain ones are absolutely cringeworthy, but this isn’t YouTube. It’s a group of our peers. I don’t think it’d hurt to at least put together a list and then group of willing individuals here on A’gon with earned credibility to do such a thing. Will it come to fruition? That, I don’t know. There’s a lot of variables at play too, such as their listening rooms, and you’d have to make sure things such as cables used in these reviews are exactly the the same and with the same amount of burn in time, if you wanted accuracy. There’s much more I can’t think of off the top of my head, but I at least believe it to be a cool idea.
Would you donate a dollar to have these Members Review a Product?
So, I've been thinking that there are a number of hifi products that I would love to hear or, at least, reviewed by folks I know and respect. I then thought what if a panel of fellow members each listened and reviewed the product.
I'd pay money to read (or watch/hear) ericsquires, wolfgarcia, millercarbon, and georgehifi each receive the same amp, speaker, etc. and review it.
