Ribald would be fun but I hope you're not too terse. Things like "it was *****" isn't very helpful while "it sounded like a swarm of flies on a pile of schite" at least implies that it buzzed like a sonavagun.
thanks again for documenting your experiences!
There's at least one unit I've heard, that seems to get a lot of praise in certain quarters, that I might be tempted to describe that way (okay, I'm exaggerating ... but it's a ~$1000 unit that I would say is probably overpriced by about $800) ... and I can absolutely see why it gets bought with the intent of being modded immediately.
For some reason that reminds of the kids that buy very pedestrian, but perfectly serviceable, cars ... then add on a couple of hundred pounds of stick-on-plastic-tat, extremely wide wheels, very low profile tires, and give it a completely custom primer-job (there's never any actual paint involved, it seems) ... instead of just spending the same net amount of money on an used, actual, sports car.
But hey, it's their time and money - and I'm not the one that has to be seen riding in such sheds.
Being serious for a moment, no, it won't be quite that terse. The stuff that winds up being seriously competitive or impressive I'll likely write quite a bit. For the stuff that doesn't "make the grade" (for me, I shall emphasize once again), I'll write up what I find, probably a solid paragraph at minimum, more as necessary, but it won't include track-by-track listening notes or lots of prose about how it renders a clarinet in a way that makes me think the artist actually picked up a duck by mistake, and was blowing into the wrong end.
(Yes, I know, that prompts the question "What is the correct end of a duck to blow into?" ... determining that is left as an exercise for the reader).
