Why are there so few professionals doing reviews on headphone's on YouTube?

I've seen lots of vids where the reviewer gives bad headphones high credit and makes people go buy 'em.

 

A good example are the Beats. There are so many reviews out there saying how good they are. I haven't seen a review where they're being smacktalked. Whereas on the Head-fi forum the Beats are hated, because of how they're bias and just getting marketed etc etc.

 

So why is there no professional audophile's making reviews on YouTube? Or am I just missing something?

InnerFidelity has a YouTube video with their Beats Solo review:

There isn't as large a market for audiophile headphones?

Wow! That was hands down the funniest review i've ever seen! Haha, I literally cranked up by that reaction :D

 

Concerning Head-fi TV, that stuff is way to complicated for me. What I meant was normal headphones, just like the solo's

 

As for the guy above me. I don't mean they should review only audiophile headphones, I mean they should review as many headphones as possibly and tell people  how they really sound!  Not like every  reviewer out there who doesn't know anything about sound!

Youtube is a vast desolate wasteland. If you give a hundred million monkeys a webcam...

 

On the other hand, here's a video of a guy breaking his beats...

Because people who are serious about headphones come here.

To change the subject, have you seen Patrick's pizza-making videos?

You mean the ones found in this thread? Classic Patrick. I wonder if he's dug up his gear yet...

[Edit] The pizza making videos appear to be private only now, which is a great loss to culinary professionals everywhere who could have learned a lot from Patrick's bold techniques!
