Yeah, I know my reply was somewhat general, but I believe it still applies. At least I know I choose business aquaintences by the same approach.
What I've seen in audio is a tendency for some manufacturers to pander to reviewers, hoping to cultivate a better image. I think this is an ugly thing, transparent in every way. But I also know a handful of people in audio that I trust, and at least one has moved towards becoming a reviewer. That one, I trust because he has shown himself to be trustworthy over the years. Bill Epstein has always been friendly, genuine and honest. The folks at AudioXpress seem like they might be pretty good too.
