AFAYK. And you don't "know" anything. You're guessing.

I've never made that claim. I don't review equipment for that one
website where I donate an article once every two months.

It's called a "good review."

I get high end equipment sent to me from the publisher of the audio
magazine where I'm an editor and reviewer. That's part of my PAID
duties.
***Where you write what's required to ensure the manufacturer // owner //
importer // distributer continues to spend his money on advertiseing in your
magazine, there by ensureing your wages and employment.
***So if I'm wrong, When was the last time you wrote the truth, and said
the item up for review was a pile of over priced junk, and there full page
advert on the next page did not influance your judgement.
***And every reviewers the same, regardless of the product. They simply
write what the advertiser likes to hear, and the day a review writes the
truth, is the day the adveriser withdrews his fat advertiseing fee's and the
magazine closes it's doors..
