Legal fund for Reviewers/Erin?

[amirm]

Just because of Ansuz being part of the Borreson group, I'm out.

What is the issue there?

Bullshit products as part of the group (and IIRC part of the wiring of the Borreson speakers). Personally just reeks of bullshit.

Check out Erin's recent posts. He's in a similar situation again this time with Borresen. While no legal threats have been made, they basically said he doesn't know how to measure speakers correctly (my words). You know what's weird? I check U.S. Audio Mart frequently. Ever since his review I've noticed several Borresens up for sale. Could be a coincidence, but I have noticed a sizeable uptick in Borresen ads.

I should add that Tekton won't be the last because manufacturers have been trying to hide the data Erin is bringing to light. Surprisingly, we are discovering Erin's (and Amir's) testing equipment is more sophisticated than many of the manufactures that are complaining their measurements are off. That's changing, however. As an example, Ascend Acoustics just spent $100K plus on new speaker test gear. I don't think they would have made this purchase in the past. Now this type of equipment is becoming mandatory.

Tbh even a umik-1 + rew home made spin would catch such aberrations. No excuse really. The NFS would be icing on the cake so to say.

I do not understand some things...we have some hungarian ls/audio reviewer channel.
One of these reviewers made a very good review about the wharfedale diamond 11.2s several years ago.
The review was absolutly positive,the reviewer told it is his favourite wharfedale ls.
After a time the review deleted from YT and both from the reviewer's homepage.
Wharfedale/supporter did not like something and told there will be sanctions etc.
I asked the reviewer but did not like to talk about it.
I know about diamond 11.2s there was a modification in the serials - (vers 1 to vers 2 change) 1.the vented ceramic magnet tweeter changed to a simply neodym dome tweeter
2.the woofer-tweeter distance changed
3.the woofers foam edge changed to rubber
4.the overall weight changed 9kgs to 7,4 kgs /each
You could not find these datas at wharfedale's official or other site.
The review was about the vers 1.
I had both the vers 1 and vers 2 too so I know what is up.
Not a nice thing to change without notify!
