I don't doubt that your basic premise is true and that you are being sincere. However, do you not recognize how you, yourself, are biased in favor of this product; especially having had a role in its development. This is the reason that one of the "top echelon" mags would never allow a review by a reviewer who had any relationship with the manufacturer of the product being reviewed.
The Belles was compared to an AR which cost 25% less and the Belles was deemed superior by the reviewer. Where is the problem? THEN, you contact the reviewer and complain that it was not compared to the reviewer's preferred $14K preamp; which the reviewer then proceeds to do and writes a "better" review !?!?
Am I missing something or is my bs sensor not functioning quite right? I know nothing about Dave Belles, but my causal impression is that his products have a good reputation. If this was my product I would not be happy with your involvement this way.
