RE: Stereophile Reaches a New Nadir

The philosophical difference is definitely part of it. He doesn't like the benchmark philosophy and I don't know whether or not he's right or to what degree.

The problem for guys like him I'd think is that he's so completely immersed in audio that I'm sure he hears things that very few others do. I don't claim to be an audiophile, am untrained, and only have a few hours a week to sit back and listen. I hear differences and have preferences but I'm perfectly happy with my systems and by the time I have a lot of time to listen my ears will probably be too shot for it to matter. Who has a lot of money, listens to a stereo a lot, and cares about the small differences in sound quality between components? It's gotta be a small small crowd.
