I do not think that this is correct. Audio reviewing is not only not dead but it is the only thing that audio industry has left in its disposal. The audio industry has no serious sound, no sober objectives to get more serious sound, no inspiring or promising ideas or concepts, no sense of strategic direction, no people who might generate any promising ideas or concepts, no people who are not contaminated with the industry dirt, no traditions to embrace (but only destroying and enslaving) of any open-minded or alternative visions, it has a few hundred frightened and deeply conditioned and unqualified people who run the industry only according to their fear to loose control and manageability of profit distribution, it has a steady inflow of incompetent people – the drop offs form other segments of engineering and marketing, it has an ethical base no more civilized then barbarian legions, it has misguided senses of priorities, misapplied reference points, primitive and unintelligent base of supporters and a constant outflow of people who have slightly higher audio IQ then everage. So, what the audio industry still DOES have: the reviewing mechanism, the only available mechanism for the industry to spread its influence and to apply pressure.
Certainly anyone who has any brain, taste, understanding or juts a common sense (not to mention ears) disregards audio reviews and audio reviewing as it exists today, or use the reviews as an interpretive anti-guiding tool to navigate across the minefield of the industry traps. However, despite all reviewing absurdity the reviews do server a purpose. What purpose? Well, the very similar purpose as the “Swift Boat Veterans for Truth” played during the last president election 2004. I am not a big fan of John Kerry but the low-class whoreish intentions and actions of the Swift Boat Vets were too apparent to anyone. To anyone?. Still, the interesting part is that America is not just cultured and well-informed East and West coasts but also a huge wasteland of the white trashes who have developed Pavlovian reflexes to absorb like a sponge the Swift Boat Vets’ crap. Within THTA America the Swift Boat Vets are very effective… as well as the audio industry’s reviews are very affective among the industry brewed audiophiles-Morons.
So, is Audio reviewing dead? Not really. Audio reviewing is the only alive entity in the industry and by assessing the state of THAT “life” is not difficult to judge the state of the entire industry. I do not know how about you but I’m pro abortions. I have no problems that some trash form Texas would consider it as a murder. I sincerely feel that there is a long list of people, in US politick as well as in the audio industry who deserved to be aborted long before they were born
