Not really. Its pretty self-serving if you ask me despite the philanthropic tone of his remarks. I remember reading stuff like that when people accused Stereophile of being preferential to their advertisers in the late 80's and 90's. Not much has changed except for the added revenue stream from on-line stores. Nevertheless I recognize that Audioholics is also a business. His comparisons would have more credibility if he discloses where he has an economic interest when writing those reviews.
