Very nice introduction into this insane hobby

An interesting thought on Audio reviews
"The manufacturers have come to learn that they can often simply buy a good review through sufficient advertising dollars, hence many of them do. But this costs money, money which has to be added to the sales price.

So in the end it’s the consumer who ends up subsidizing the very market that is picking their pocket by providing unreliable evaluations of the market’s products."

Sorry to be blunt, but the purge of staff from AV Max was good.

The staff had turned corrupt, and I know for a fact, demanded a sales commission for equipment that they informally suggested, when readers phoned them.

Dining out splurges and more were DEMANDED before equipment reviews, and the reviews reflected the courtesies extended.

This all sounds HORRIBLE, and it WAS. ( Ask the manufacturers who gave their equipment for review). The magazine itself and the Editorial board were, I must add, clean, its the reviewers in their individual capacity that turned rogue.

The new team has the chance to start fresh. There vocabulary, and command over English and audiophile terms too seem better.

Yes, the audio reviews are more sparse, and need to be ramped up.

Come on boys at AV Max, dont neglect your core audience.

Maneck, Please let this letter through.... It Good For Indian Hi Fi, and will also keep new reviewers on their toes...
