In Reply to: You can nominate low-priced gear for coverage in my column in Stereophile! posted by John Marks on June 21, 2003 at 08:54:34:
Although I am not bound by the five-dealer rule, I am not inclined to cover products from recently started companies or companies that don't seem ready for prime time.I think you should take this opportunity to really explore the audio underground world and include direct-sell manufacturers and passionate DIYer's who sell their works. Given the risks of not getting ready for prime time, financial instability, dependence on off-the-shell components, etc., the advantage of your audiences getting an exceptional quality vs price performance may outweight them. Once risks and advantages clearly explained, your audiences will have to decide for themselves whether they want to take those risks -- just like they'll have decide for themselves eventually whether your ears can be used to reliably judge good sound. Why not give them the choice?
try audiocirle.com for the underground candidates.
