| Example of a piece o’ crap, useless review Given true long format reviews typically take six months to do. It is really not that surprising that each issue could only contain a few of these. Do the math. @ghdprentice I can’t speak for TAS, nor would I care to, but at Soundstage we had t... | |
| Example of a piece o’ crap, useless review There are full format reviews on a number of the components: Burmeister turntable, Vandersteen speaker, Magico speakers, and some others. These all contain sections on associated equipment, and are in depth. @ghdprentice Yeah but how many of th... | |
| Example of a piece o’ crap, useless review Since every reviewer has a different setup and all of us have different setups the variations are endless and so are the subjective outcomes. @tom2015 That’s exactly why making relevant product comparisons is absolutely critical. Humans are i... | |
| Example of a piece o’ crap, useless review @jhnnrrs @aolmrd1241 I can’t speak directly about the other sites, but having written reviews for Soundstage for 17 years I can tell you that all they strive for are thorough and honest reviews, and BTW they have a site dedicated specifically to “... | |
| Qobuz vs. Tidal Second, usually when you have an annual subscription, you get an email that you are about to renew and they will be charging you card for the renewal. Not the case with Quobuz. got this email from Qobuz two months!!! before my subscription wa... | |
| Connection options from Node to Denafrips Iris to Pontus 🤞🤞🤞 | |
| Example of a piece o’ crap, useless review Most all reviews are now Infomercials. @yesiam_a_pirate I actually somewhat disagree with this. There are many publications out there where reviewers are passionate about conveying honest and useful information for readers in their rigorous and... | |
| Connection options from Node to Denafrips Iris to Pontus I don’t think you can. The Iris requires a USB input and the Node only seems to have SPDIF and optical outputs. You’d need to step up to the Hermes, which is considerably more expensive, to get an SPDIF input. | |
| Example of a piece o’ crap, useless review Soix, Did you write a letter to TAS complaining about the quality of this and other reviews they publish? @lewm Yes. A while back I wrote to them about these issues but not surprisingly didn’t hear back, and obviously nothing changed. I’ve a... | |
| Example of a piece o’ crap, useless review The type of review you are looking for might be over the head of the majority of people looking to buy a TT at this price range? @bigtwin Uh, what??? This is a $3000 turntable without a tonearm and cartridge. In what world does a product at thi... | |
| Example of a piece o’ crap, useless review @mrdecibel Sure. You can google soundstage reviews Tim Shea and some should pop up (I hope). Here are some — they’re dated, just like me — just to make it easier. Good bedtime reading if nothing else… https://www.soundstagehifi.com/index.php/c... | |
| Example of a piece o’ crap, useless review I totally get how it reads like an ad campaign and not a review but I bet it is a great table. @oddiofyl You know, and that’s exactly the point. I greatly respect the brand and am genuinely intrigued by the design, which made this even more d... | |
| Example of a piece o’ crap, useless review I don't even read reviews and have another (higher) level of abhorrence for youtube reviews. @carlsbad2 Amen to that. There are a few decent ones that I’ve seen, but the vast majority are just posers who get off on talking into a camera and ... | |
| Qobuz vs. Tidal Don’t have search issues with Tidal, Qobuz, Roon or Auender Conductor 4. What are the examples of an issue you’re running into with search? @audphile1 Have a look at the post abov@arnold_h — his experience and frustrations mimic my own exactly. | |
| Qobuz vs. Tidal soix ... With the level of tech today you wouldn’t think it’d be too hard to have someone fairly easily implement a decent search function ... That's a function of the software you're using to stream Qobuz, e.g. Conductor if you're using an... |
