“t’s a big, open and refined sound that’s decently detailed and offers a richer, weightier presentation than the Chord Hugo, one of its closest rivals. It also has a smoother character, making it a forgiving listen with lesser-quality tracks, but one that sacrifices a layer of detail and dynamics in the process, rounding off a level of drive and attack and making it sound altogether more restrained.”

Signature Acoustics Element O-16 Review

“All and all, the O-16 has a well-rounded sound – mature, polite, not boring by any mean but also lacks just a touch of excitement that could have excelled it to the next level. It could very well being said to be a gentleman’s IEM – a rather safe choice, so to speak. It has the same easy-goingness of its elder sibling, the C-12, but a little conservative in tuning. ”

Naim Audio Statement Preamplifier & Power Amplifier $206,666 Review

“he device sports a high quality WBT NextGen RCA sockets. Also large, handy speaker posts were custom designed by Naim. They are placed close to the floor so connecting even heavy, thick cables shouldn’t be a problem. Next to them there are the only, balanced inputs in NAP S1. It is a bit surprising as Naim has been using DIN standard for years, but there is a simple explanation to that – both linestage and amplifiers sport fully balanced design and DIN is an unbalanced connection. A power switch has a form of a quite large lever. Both, preamplifier and power amps, sport solid spikes”

KEF X300A Review

“Bass is there when you want it – not necessarily thunderous, but enough to make its presence felt during drum/bass solos or even the fiery explosion or two in movie soundtracks. Reproduction of the human voice – whether conversational or sung – is incredibly vivid, as are acoustic wood-bodied instruments.”

Gorilla Ears GX-4b $799 Review

” The GX-4b utilizes four BA drivers in a 3-way, triple-bore configuration with dual armatures handling the bass. The first thing I noticed is the extreme efficiency of this earphone – it may just be the most sensitive IEM I’ve ever come across. The efficiency has its benefits – for instance, the GX-4b has no trouble reaching ear-splitting volumes even with limited-output sources”

WHAMMERDYNE TRUTH 2A3 amplifier

“The Whammerdyne Truth is dead quiet, even when coupled to the highest sensitivity of speakers. Its exceptional performance can be experienced with small box speakers–even with all of their limitations. The end result is a listening that presents a stage that is wide, deep, providing a high ceiling, and with crystal clear clarity and definition that would convince you that you’re at a live performance”

Theta Digital Prometheus monoblock power amplifier $6000 each Review

” This year, I’ve traveled frequently. When away for more than a few days, I turned off the amp completely with the rear-panel switch. Otherwise I left it in Standby, that LED glowing red, to ensure that the Prometheus was always at its best for listening. As recommended by Jeff Hipps, I played music through the Thetas at a low level for one week before doing any serious listening.”
