Stereophile, don't worry

It is still doing its same thing. Here a bit from the current online mag:
Rune Skov shows off the new Nordost Valhalla 2 interconnect ($9799/2m
pair) next to his sweet Nordost tattoo.
On Tuesday May 28th, 2013, Nordost premiered the Valhalla 2 cable
lineup at Lyric Hi-Fi in New York City. Rune Skov, International
Product Training & Sales Support Manager for Nordost, gave a
demonstration to a garrulous group of audiophiles who joyfully
suggested what differences they heard as Skov switched out each old
Valhalla cable for the new one.
Wow, what a scientific approach. Just as the editor some years ago
demonstrated in his "debate" about objective testing, if one puts oneself
into a context known to produce false subjective results; one will get self
same subjective results.
I think you're being a bit mean to Stereophile. Of course I admit
that there is some woo-woo stuff like this, but a lot of it isn't, and
there doesn't seem to be a strong party line one way or the other.
Some of their writers spend hours comparing cables, some don't.
Andrew.
