” The description Vision Ears gives of the VE5 is: “Crystal-clear, airy highs result in a stunningly open sound. Powerful presence in the high-mids gives a great vocal-reproduction. Outstanding clarity and precision in combination with great resolution over the whole frequency-range”. And that is a pretty correct description.”

” Its dynamic range, noise, crosstalk, and THD measure (in closed IN-OUT benchmarks) near the limits of commercially available measuring equipment is able to record. It is necessary to say that the theoretical limits of even 44kHz 24-bit audio go well beyond what’s possible through any commercially viable DAC.
Violectric V281 Headphone Amplifier Review

” it’s not purely a numbers game. The Schiit Lyr for example is very potent but doesn’t come anywhere near this level. It’s great for what it is but just can’t match a Bryston BHA-1 or Schiit Mjolnir, much less the V281. If raw power alone was the criteria we’d all be running the HE-6 from speaker amps. I’ve done so myself and know a few people who swear by it. All I can say is, I have here a few rather nice amps here at the moment including an Anthem A2, a BAT VK-220, and a pair of Merrill Audio Thor monoblocks. Each of these amps is a powerhouse, sounding great with the HE-6. Yet none do anything amazing that I don’t already get with the V281. Color me impressed.”

“As you can see from the curves, the TT1’s frequency response is essentially flat, but with a slight downward tilt (less treble, more bass) in the balance. Horizontal off-axis response is truly outstanding. Check out the averaged responses in the chart, and you’ll notice that, while the extreme treble dispersion is nothing special (that dive you see on the green and red curves above 16 kHz), the midrange and lower treble is practically the same on-axis or off. That’s hard to do, and in my opinion it’s critical to getting true world-class sound.”
OPPO PM-3 Headphones and HA-2 Portable Headphone Amp/DAC Review

“The HA-2 employs a hybrid class AB amplification circuit and a convenient asynchronous USB-DAC interface that allows the unit to receive digital audio inputs from any attached device. In my case this included the aforementioned Dell PC and an Apple ipad. The amp utilizes the superb ESS Sabre32 DAC which supports both 384 kHz PCM and DSD256 encoding and offers high-quality digital-to-analog conversion for a wide array of Apple-based devices, PCs and Mac computers. The amp operates on battery power and takes about an hour to charge fully when the battery runs down. I got about 6 or 7 hours of steady playback in-between charges. Even after two weeks of non-use, the HA-2 still retained about 75% of its playback power. Wow!”

” Both the 1000SW and 2000SW also include a tone-sweep feature which allows you to locate resonances and troublesome rattles in your listening area. Pressing the sweep button sends out a tone sweep throughout the room. If resonance or a rattle is detected, pressing the tone-sweep button a second time holds the frequency and allows you to investigate and locate the culprit.”

” I have waited a long time to find a way of removing the huge quantities of smashed CD jewel cases from my shelves, with a server that could punch like a good CD player, but to date my search has been fruitless. ReQuest’s The Beast changes that: it can better my Esoteric K‑05 CD player without an external atomic clock, albeit with one, the fight is much closer: but the Beast certainly justifies its sobriquet for its gravitas and the sheer awe it inspires. It has an alter ego: lithe, quick footed, and an intelligence, which is always present.”
Langer Audio • No.7 Turntable Review

” One final aspect of the deck caused my audio antennae to twitch. Most manufacturers (and most of us) dispensed with the sort of heavy rubber record mat fitted to the Langer many, many moons ago. At least this one is flat rather than patterned and profiled, and I spent quite some time listening with it in place, as I grew accustomed to the sound of the deck. But the longer I listened, the more tempting it became to experiment with alternative mats.”
