Two events happened at the same time for me. I completely overhauled my audio system this past year. At the same time the renewal dates for Stereophile and TAS occurred. Dropping TAS was a no brainer. I haven’t agreed with their editorial staff in a long time. As far as Stereophile goes, I noticed I hadn’t got an issue in some time. I called and was told my subscription had run out. Would I like to renew? I said thanks but no thanks.
I can truthfully say I don’t miss either magazine. I had a few old Stereophile around from the late nineties. The latest Stereophile issues are half the pages. I look through it once and then toss it in the garbage. There isn’t enough to hold my interest these days. TAS has been a joke for some years. Besides, I can find what I need from the Internet.
