Rank Stereophile, & why no Von Schweikert reviews


Why is it that Stereophile has no Von Schweikert reviews in there archives? Did Albert piss them off? How would you rank Stereophile magazine against their competitors such as The Absolute Sound and others. Who is your favorite? Thanks

Advertising and reviews go hand in hand in some industries.
I have a tour company, thailandsegwaytours.com
When I advertise, the magazine will do an "editorial" too.
The only part of Stereophile I read is the measurement section.This is the best part of their reviews. This tells me more about a speaker than the magical wizardry spun by a reviewer. I'm sure there are some manufactures who do not wish to be reviewed by Stereophile simply because the measurements will tell on them. 6moons is one of favorites for written reviews as they go outside of mainstream and find the real hidden gems out there.If they only had a way to measure the speakers under review . This would complete the web site, then it could be called 7moons ;-).HiFi out of Britian is another one I like as they don't bite their tongues.The same goes for Positive feedback.
I read Stereophile, but I consider it to be entertainment. Most entertaining to me is the "letters to the editor" section. Seems to me TAS is becoming a Stereophile. Everfything that both rags reviews is "great!". Guess there's no mediocre equipment out there.
No magazine can review every piece of high end gear made. It is simply not possible. Jependleton is right, they only review the gear that is sent to them.
Art Dudley's column is one of the only redeaming features that keeps me subscribing to Stereophile. I also like the music reviews and interviews. I prefer TAS though for the monthly centerfold and full-on wet IEC outlet shot.

PS Rumor in the industry is that Von Schweikert's speakers don't "put out" so the Stereophile editors blackballed'em.
