I had a read round of some of the various other hifi mags in the last year or so; ended up keeping my excellent subscription with WHF and opened up a new one with Hi Fi World whose scope is slightly different and it's always good to have an alternative view.
I'm very pleased to have seen more hifi gear in WHF in the last 12 months or so; I got the impression for a while that it was - if not quite taking a back seat - maybe not as prominent as it could've been. Equally, the manufacturers started churning fresh lines out and - even better - more turntables came on to the market!
i did read - and I apologise this has nothing to do with the 840C - one especially ludicrous article in a certain mag a while back, which may have offered a "choice" in its' title. All this did was take the reviewer's comments and lessen the impact of what he was trying to say. The article might have had its' point, but one daft comment (which should never have been allowed the light of day!) killed it stone dead - and the author's credibility IMO.
So thanks to WHF and HFW for not only giving us a damn good read, but whose journalists have their heads in the real world not up in the clouds!
