“I played all manner of music through the Converto including the usual suspects and something like Kind of Blue in mono (24/192) from HDtracks suited its strengths perfectly. All of players were laid out is space and their distinct voices shone through nicely.”

“The new design simply, although I’m sure it was anything but simple, does away with the array of magnets on the side closest to the ear.
