I have absolutely nowt against HiFi+, apart from their sometimes appalling lack of proof reading (sorry Mr.G but occasionally it's not even up to Grauniad standards of spelling/grammar etc.) - I buy most issues..
Anyway, it seems to me that just about everyone has some small agenda and or beef to promote or shout about should the occasion warrant it:
With me it's the absolute fact (oh yes) that small speakers are shite, and there's no point having a bass driver that's less than 12" 
With Mr. G, he appears to spout about the wonderfullness of Nordost Valhalla at every opportunity
Our own Merlin loves his sub-woofers, and WM loves to get in up to his knuckles in digital internals...
Either way, it's ultimately a case of each to their own, and in the case of opinions expressed on a forum (as that's what they are - it's Hifi FFS so there are no ultimate truths) it seems that shouting about the possibility of legal action to posters (didn't we have something similar during one of the ridiculous LimValve threads?) smacks of first order Kettle-Blacking
