Pro violinists fail to spot Stradivarius in blind test
Could you tell a new violin from a vintage Stradivarius? Top-notch soloists couldn't in a blind test, and they even preferred new instruments

Hence my oft repeated caution to anyone who is going by published reviews, listen before you buy. Reviews are only a subjective impression of the equipment under test, maybe sometimes correlated by measurements (stereophile), but the end of the day your own ears are the guide to what you will like.Sid
You know what would be interesting !!
Put all the audio reviewers in a room
( Specially the cable guys)
Now blind test them all
And see the fun !
Post the results
How many so called reviewers would have any credibility left
The tragedy is
That that will never happen
No published reviewer will ever get into such a room
