so you did find a pair of these speakers? I’m sorry but I certainly don’t use Youtube as a bible when it comes to computer speakers or anything else, whilst Youtube is useful with some much knowledge available there its also a breeding ground for idiots and halfwits just as Google and the Net in general is, people know that radio is a hobby of mine for example and there are some truly outstanding demos and review of radio sets to be found but there are unfortunately just as many notable twits doing reviews of radios and setting themselves up to be real little know-it-all’s when it soon becomes apparent - listening to the review - that they wouldn’t know the volume knob from the keypad on a radio.
Of course having said that, it often helps when you have the appliance or item that is being reviewed in front of you whilst watching the review itself then the laughs dramatically increase but for those who don’t actually own the product themselves or have actually seen/heard the product then Youtube may not be very much help at all so that’s why I look at trusted sources on Google such as My Hi-Fi or seek out those sources who compare the product with something else rather than just say its good, bad, ugly or anything else. I mean there’s little point in say saying the B&W MM1’s are good, what does that tell you if the reviewer doesn’t compare it to other brands available or similar speakers that have been reviewed in the past. > On 26 Jan 2016, at 12:31 AM, Hamit Campos <[email protected]> wrote: > > Yeah I heard that on the youtube vid I shaired the link for.
