This is a part of HigherFi site. They are in a very specific business and they do what they do fine. The site is pretty much enumeration of everything in audio with price tags. They completely silent and with no expertise of any kind offered to buye...

Dave Wilson is a very clever guy who runs the quintessential Robb Report venture. And unlike the usual RR bottle rocket Morons, Dave has really endured. I think this is at least partly because he takes a 2-pronged approach to product and market analy...

I'll refrain from commenting on the performance of the Alexandria; I've heard it once and am willing to keep an open mind on the grounds that the installation may not have been correctly set up; it was at an audio show paired with Audio Research gear...

David Wilson says about the WAMM:
Atkinson: What range does the electrostatic unit cover?
