Exclusive to our Substack subscribers, we host a weekly Q&A every Monday. Our team of veteran writers, reviewers, and editors hand select a few to answer every Friday. Perhaps you’re having trouble with a specific amplifier, or desire a deeper understanding of transmission line speakers, from the general to the specific, post your questions here and come back on Friday to see them answered!
This is a question regarding how TAS chooses to continue listing some products year after year in its annual Recommended Components (or Editors’ Choice Awards) listings, but some get dropped after only one or a couple appearances. For example, Andrew Quint reviewed the Audio Physic Cardeas 30 LJE speakers a few years ago, describing these speakers as the best he had ever heard in his listening space, providing “world class performance,” and commenting that with this speaker “one stand[s] to get sound as good as most audiophiles can hope to achieve in a typical domestic environment.”. But the Audio Physic quickly dropped out of sight in TAS’ recommendations. Just curious about the listing factors because other speakers, like various Magico speakers, reappear year after year. Thank you.
My subscription renewed on Feb. 18. I receive the "Q&A" email on Mondays and the "5 Links" email on Wednesdays but haven't received the Friday email with the answer to the selected question in several weeks. Please let me know if your Friday emails will start up again on March 7th.
