My review of the Stereophile Water, Mk. CES 2007: Due to time constraints, JA did not have time to ingest the Stereophile Water (SW) prior to conducting chemical analysis (please see JA's pre-ingestion chemical analysis of the SW elsewhere in this review). So how did the SW taste? In a word: Refreshing. Compared to the Dasani, the clearer SW was purer tasting, with little or no edginess or aftertaste. The SW was vastly purer tasting than the Perrier, the latter being visibly cloudy, even murky, in comparison. I suspect that the visible difference was due to the Perrier's abundance of solid states. On the other hand, dynamically the SW did seem to linger longer after swallowing ended than did the high-end Fiji or Eldorado Springs. But, overall, no matter what food I was washing down with the SW, it left me thirsty for more. Like the audio cable reviewed in this issue, I can firmly say the SW is worth its weight in gold (or cable, whichever costs more per pound). Highly recommended!
