This link was posted elsewhere recently:

It was a bit of fun to read, much of it little more than a bit of bitching between forums, although there are some sensible and interesting posts along the way.
Then on page 8, a conspiracy theory.....
Apparently there are links between ace ASR tester Amir and the audio distribution company Aoshida. This explains everything! Well, maybe not, from what I can see there are no links, except for the odd reference to ASR for products that were favourably reviewed by ASR. This kind of thing is not that unusual and can be seen elsewhere, sometimes with links to the "established" hifi publications. No smoking gun, as they say..... Is there a touch of bias creeping in? Who knows, and we are all human, but measurements are measurements, so there has to be a limit.
Anyway, make of it what you will....
