I agree with Mapman, Almarg and bdp24. I enjoy Stereophile more than any other mag because in addition to the reviewer's subjective impressions, we have measurements. No wise audiophile should buy any component based solely upon measurements. The unwise audiophile ignores the measurements.
I especially enjoy it when the impressions of the reviewer are at odds with the measurements which are disclosed after the review is in.
Lastly, I think the Stereophile writers are generally very literate and engaging. I enjoy the Absolute Sound as well, but if I could only read one magazine, it would be Stereophile. I also enjoy HiFi News and Record Reviewsout of the UK. It is, in many ways, a distinctly different perspective on audio.
