Please can we have a moratorium on WHF covers dominated by televisions! I rarely buy the magazine now because the near-identical covers are just so off-putting.
And come to that, why a TV test in every single issue??? I've always bought WHF for the HiFi, and while I appreciate that there is an increasing crossover into home AV systems, why is it absolutely necessary to offer TV comparisons in every single issue?? This (and the cover photos) is driving me mad! Remember - the magazine is NOT called What Television?
There was a great article a month or two back about DACs, but it felt like an afterthought - where's the big feature (and Supertest) showing how to partner DACs and speakers to get the best out of a system built around a computer disc transport...?
What about a comparison between the B&W Zeppelin versus the Fatman iTube Carbon Valvedock plus Tannoy Mercury F1s? Or something along those lines...? Even features such as these would be truer to the spirit of HiFi than endless bloody TV tests!
