Just curious what members opinion of Amir and Audio Science Review.
He is very controversial.
But he does not spare the rod at all.
For budget equipment, it's handy to see what performs well, also handy to see what doesn't. For high-end gear, I don't see much value there. I was looking for a bedroom DAC and bought a Topping DX7 Pro based on his rating. It's okay, nothing special, but it works well and sounds nice on the bedroom system. But the idea that I would stop there for my music needs is ridiculous.
Then again, a lot of people say his measurements are crap. I wouldn't know. But I don't spend much time there.
I find that WhatHiFi has the most reliable reviews for budget and higher-end stuff.
