That's great, though I find that to be a copout. You're basically giving yourself permission to say anything you want under the guise that everyone should listen for themselves. However, if that is truly the case, why bother "reviewing" the speaker to begin with?!? You want to influence people, then say "hey, don't listen to me!". Doens't ring true, sorry.For my own involvment, let me be clear in saying that I think B&W, more than any other brand, exemplifies what is wrong with "high-end" more than any other brand of which I'm aware, just as Bose exemplifies what is wrong with "mid-fi" more than any other brand of which I'm aware. It's a well-publicized distraction from the true course, which is more natural, more realistic, more transparent sound. We'd like to ignore it, but it's gained the status of being a bigger distraction than audio is "high-end". But, if B&W or Bose build a great speaker, I'd give them credit. I'm waiting.
