Default Tone Audio - Issue 95 April 2019

April 2019 issue of Tone Audio

Still with a growing number of ads and light on reviews, but some content of interest and good gear pics.

What happened to this magazine? It used to be great. Full of reviews of music and equipment. Now it’s just a waste of time????

Definitely a lot of advertising, that’s for sure.

Another form of advertising beneficial and cheaper for manufacturers marketing their products to more people.

Bill......."A growing number of ads" is putting it mildly. The ads to content ratio is heavily weighted to advertisements. I don't recall ever seeing another audio magazine with so little content and such a flood of ads.

I did find one ad amusing, the Exogal DAC ad. My system gets this view all the time.

Guess I'll just skip posting their new issues... I have no connection to them or control of their editorial policies. I agree it's gone down the tubes.

Definitely a weak issue for sure. But don't stop posting the links, Bill.

There is still hope amongst some of us long time readers that Jeff and the crew get their act together once again.
