At Clarisys Audio, review opportunities are a privilege, not an entitlement. Our loudspeakers are built in limited quantities and represent a substantial investment in materials, engineering, and manufacturing. As a result, we are highly selective regarding who receives products for evaluation.
Clarisys Audio does not operate an open review program.
We receive numerous review requests each year and decline the majority of them.
Review opportunities are granted only to reviewers, publications, and content creators who meet our internal standards for professionalism, technical competence, credibility, and audience relevance.
The fact that a reviewer requests a product does not create any obligation on the part of Clarisys Audio to provide one. We reserve the absolute right to approve or decline any review request for any reason.
All products supplied for review remain the sole property of Clarisys Audio. Products are provided exclusively as temporary evaluation loans.
At the end of the review period, the product must be returned.
Clarisys Audio does not give away products. Ever.
We do not gift loudspeakers, upgrades, accessories, cables, parts, or any other products to reviewers, publications, influencers, or content creators.
A review does not earn ownership of a product. Publication of a review does not change ownership of a product. Positive coverage, awards — none of this changes ownership.
All review equipment must be returned.
Clarisys Audio does not exchange products for reviews, awards, rankings, advertising, endorsements, social media exposure, YouTube content, editorial coverage, promotional activities, other audio equipment, or any goods or services.
There are no barter arrangements, side agreements, or informal understandings.
Reviewers are free to publish their honest opinions.
We do not require approval before publication. We do not negotiate review outcomes. We do not request positive conclusions.
A reviewer may like our products, dislike our products, or reach any conclusion they believe is appropriate.
We encourage all reviewers to disclose that any Clarisys Audio product supplied for review is a temporary loan and remains the property of Clarisys Audio.
Clarisys Audio believes that great products should succeed on their performance, engineering, and musical merit.
We do not buy reviews. We do not reward reviews. We do not trade products for reviews. We do not give products away.
And we reserve the right to decide who represents our brand through the review process.
