Some people love Guttenberg's reviews and usually he does have some valid comments about the gear.

Just keep in mind that he makes his living by touting the most expensive gear.

You can see that in this review where he just has to include comments on gear from big manufacturers

that he doesn't have on hand to compare.  He has to include them favorably even though he can't 

compare them directly and it's been MONTHS since he listened to them with different amps and music.

imo, he has to include them so he doesn't upset them, so they don't cut him off.

The hi fi hobby is filled with reviewers whose opinions are suspect due to conflicts of interest.

Every month its the same old cycle. The products "lift a veil" and the "chocolate" even runs from power cords.

 

This is exactly the reason we offer the Carver Amp Challenge money back guaranty. 

 

Until you hear the product in your system you have no idea its true musical value.

 

A person can buy the media product of the month, but what they really want, is a product they enjoy living with.

 

Who can the customer believe and trust? Using their own ears, listening to their own speakers, is the only way, imho..

 

If a company won't let you compare to others or to what you currently own, at home without restocking fees, you might ask why? This customer focused approach works great for Bob Carver customers. We love competing on a level playing field.

I wish Guttenberg had something interesting to say in any of his posts. It's all a bunch of him "lip smacking" and telling you how wonderful everything is.

Where are the negative reviews? They don't exist.

You don't need to actually watch anything he produces. Just look at the YouTube post title which includes the product name.

If he "reviewed" it, you already know he thinks it's the greatest thing since sliced bread. No need to watch.

A bunch of years ago he reviewed a speaker that I happened to own. He told me how wonderful it was. Personally, I wanted to pour gasoline on them and burn them in my backyard.
