Artar1,Setting aside the comments on Art Dudley's review and approach to reviewing about which I am in no position to comment, I found your general remarks about TT reviewing, your reluctance to endorse shoot outs as well as inappropriate reliance... 
Anyone Heard the DeVore Silverbacks?
Sorry, btw that you thought of my review as lofty. I don't think I said they made great music, blah, blah, blah :-)I thought I tried to describe in detail the approach to design deVore adopted and to contrast it with other approaches. I think I sa... 
Anyone Heard the DeVore Silverbacks?
hi,Sorry it's taken me a while to get back to you. I've been busy and away from 'audio.' One of the best features of the Silverback is its versatility. While it works well with lower powered tube amps, there is no reason to think that it won't shi...

Feedback/Ideas for New Magazine?
I would be interested in everyone's views of an opinion piece I wrote recently in UltraAudio on some of these issues. I have no doubt that there is a degree of cynicism about the review process and some of it may in fact be warranted, but let me k... 
Innersound Kilowatt Monoblock, how good is it?
