Headphonesty

A consumer audio publication, and this spoke's first source from the listener side of the trade press rather than the maker or producer side. Publisher of the 192 kHz roundup.

Affiliate-monetized, and it says so. Every article carries "We independently review all our recommendations. Purchases made via our links may earn us a commission" above the first paragraph. That disclosure is better practice than most of the gear press this spoke reads, and it is still a reason to check which conclusions point at a purchase.

How to tier it. By this spoke's rule — grade the page by what it rests on, not the masthead. The 192 kHz article relays other people's studies and quotes without running anything, which is T3. A Headphonesty piece that measured something would be T2 on the same masthead.

Known cross-wiki. ../loudspeaker-design-wiki already names Headphonesty in loudspeaker-resale-value as the publisher of a February 2026 audio-gear depreciation dataset that spoke wants and has not ingested — so this publisher is a live lead in two spokes at once, and the resale dataset is the more valuable of the two because it would be original data rather than a roundup.
