Number one thing from an editor's perspective is someone who can write and hear. Unfortunately that's easier said than done. In too many cases, the reviewer can hear and can't write or vice versa.
In my book, one of the most important things that a reviewer should bring to the table, that is besides some experience hearing live music, is as much experience as possible hearing different brands of equipment in their own system. That way the reviewer has an adequate baseline by which to evaluate gear rather than falling into the school of the best is the latest thing they've heard.
