” The NuPrime range also contains a headphone amp/DAC in the DAC-10H (above top, $1,795), but this one has balanced as well as quarter inch outputs that can be used simultaneously. It has five digital and two analogue inputs and comes in a preamp version dubbed DAC-10 (above below) without the headphone outputs, both have balanced and single ended outputs. Spec is very high with support for 32-bit/384kHz PCM and native DSD up to DSD256 via the asynchronous USB input. The NuPrime ST-10 (below) is a class D power amplifier rated at 150 Watts (8 Ohms) with claimed 85% efficiency and “near-reference” class sound for $1,595.

” The main amplifier section is built around an OEM version of the popular Hypex switching module driving MOSFET output devices. As an aside, the Hypex switching units are often found on much more expensive class D amplifiers, including my reference Merrill Thor monoblocks, which clock in at $4800 retail”

MartinLogan Neolith Loudspeaker $ 80,000/pair Review

What is very atypical and even novel with the Neolith is its design: it’s fully passive. No, that’s not a misprint. Unlike all other MartinLogan electrostatic speakers which have active components, the Neolith is fully passive from top to bottom. If you look at the Neolith you won’t get that impression. It has a power cord like all MartinLogan electrostatics, but on the Neolith, the power cord serves only a single purpose—to charge the electrostatic panel, nothing more. MartinLogan deliberately made the Neolith a passive design so that audiophile customers could pair whatever high-performance solid state or tube amplifiers they wanted for single or bi-amping the Neolith.”

” I loved the balance of the presentation. Evaluations were done using both the Coax and USB inputs. I found them to be on par, with the USB maybe offering the slightest bit more of spaciousness.

HIFIMAN HE-400I Review

” To me the HE-400i is tuned more linear than the 500 and the 500 is more laid back sounding. The 400i has a smoother and more musical presentation in the mids section with more body. It is less dry in a way (not that the HE-500 is dry). The 500 is known for its slightly more in the back mids so that’s no real surprise to anyone. Treble do is more detailed on the HE-500 imo.”
