In reply to:
If I were someone looking to buy speakers, I would look at what Curtis' says with a grain of salt, and do more research. I am skeptical of something that only has customer reviews.
I guess that depends on how much you trust the self-proclaimed professional/audiophiless or pros influenced by the almighty dollar and publishers.
I'm sure Alan could relate a ton of stories having edited the S&V mag for some years.
If an item has a relatively good number of reviews (for example audioreview.com on the VTF2 sub which has 100 reviews), i would tend to still believe the customers.
You certainly need to read between the lines a fair bit to sort out the consistently good points and bad points for both customer or professional opinions.
