Talking of shills, I give you Zeos of Z Reviews!
https://www.youtube.com/user/ZeosReviews
I'm not so sure about shill, he clearly has a plan to monetize his channel and make a living with what he does (doesn't everyone though?), but he clearly loves it too. Additionally, across various videos he has broadly debunked the cable myth and other audiophile snake oil, recommended neutral, well performing equipment such as that produced by Topping, SMSL, THX etc on the basis of their (measured by others) strengths, and has maintained the HD600 as his reference headphone for years.
Sure his technical knowledge can be lacking, which he sometimes admits and sometimes substitutes erroneous bluster in its place; he claims not to watch other reviewers, but I'm pretty sure he's better informed than he makes out and there's evidence he absorbs a lot of the kind of material this site produces, for example the inaudible differences between a good $100 DAC and anything more expensive, and he seems to be learning, or trying to, as his audiophile journey progresses. His amateurish attempts at blind testing are almost endearing but he obviously sees merit in a lot of the right ways of doing things!
He also appears to understand subjectivity, it's merits, pitfalls and need for qualification. If he enjoys something objectively "bad" he says so, he knows the difference between "fun" and "accurate", and most of his flowery prose is actually more down to earth, comprehensible and likely to be based on some kind of measurable property than the likes of Guttenberg and Darko, even if he's incapable of testing or articulating exactly what. Oh and his insights into usability and ergonomics are clearly borne of actual experience and frustration.
And finally, while I'm sure he's not everyone's cup of tea, he is also an entertainer, a comic, a clown which in these dark times we need more off. I really didn't expect to join this forum and construct a defence of Zeos but there you go; I happened to come across both ASR and Zeos recently at around the same time and appreciate both, the more so for trying to understand what they're both about.
