” There are plenty of options for high-quality stand/shelf speakers or monitors in the $3,000 range—from Bower Wilkins, Sonus faber, Harbeth, and numerous others—and the $2,995 DALI Rubicon 2s certainly hold their own. Their most praise-worthy characteristics are their accuracy, clarity, and broad frequency response, with an especially notable bass response for their size.”

Aurender Flow D/A headphone amplifier Review

” The high frequencies were clean and clear, though very slightly less so when playing files from the Flow’s internal drive compared with the same files played from the laptop’s hard drive. Though playing from the Flow’s storage means the USB port is operating simultaneously in both directions, doubling the rate of data flow, I heard no dropouts or other problems.”

Paradigm Prestige Series 15B Two-Way Stand/Shelf Speaker review

July 12, 2015 Comments Off on Paradigm Prestige Series 15B Two-Way Stand/Shelf Speaker review

http://goo.gl/tniKJn Read Here

” Per usual with Paradigm, these made-in-Canada speakers are well built and very attractive. Even a picky high-end audiophile will like the aesthetic of this speaker. Cabinet finishes come in Gloss Piano Black, Midnight Cherry, Satin Walnut (the review sample pair) and Satin Black Walnut. The five-way binding posts are easily accessible and the magnet-attached grill makes removal a snap.”

MOON NĒO 430HAD HEADPHONE AMPLIFIER/DAC £2,700 REVIEW

July 11, 2015 Comments Off on MOON NĒO 430HAD HEADPHONE AMPLIFIER/DAC £2,700 REVIEW

” . This is not to take anything away from the DAC3 Engine option, though, as I think it arguably adds a huge amount of high-level digital functionality for not an awful lot of money. In side-by-side comparisons with the AURALiC VEGA Digital Audio Processor, I found I narrowly preferred the VEGA to the Moon DAC3 Engine, although the performance gap was narrow enough that I could happily have lived with either one on a long-term basis”

Aurender N100H Music Player Review

July 11, 2015 Comments Off on Aurender N100H Music Player Review

http://goo.gl/3p3MDc ReadHere

‘” The Aurender N100H is a hybrid component capable of being a caching network player streaming from a NAS and / or a music server with local storage. Add in the fact that it can stream lossless music from TIDAL’s vast library, music lovers shouldn’t run out of options with the N100H. At just $200 more than the standard N100, upgrading to the H model seems like a no brainer for most consumers. The 2TB of storage is either very useful now, or may become useful depending on one’s circumstances in the future”

Noble Savant in-ear headphones Review

http://goo.gl/Sb9Xj7 Read Here

” The Savant’s strengths are best appreciated with good quality recordings, over-compressed and harsh sounding MP3s sounded compressed and harsh. Ah, but when I played Antonio Sanchez’ drum solos on the “Birdman” soundtrack the Savant delivered the goods. The tom-tom drums solidity and power were incredibly natural, each beat was clear as can be; and cymbal crashes sounded like the real thing.”

Pear Audio Blue Kid Howard turntable & Cornet 2 tonearm

July 11, 2015 Comments Off on Pear Audio Blue Kid Howard turntable & Cornet 2 tonearm

http://goo.gl/5OG8Ka Read Here

” Once I got the hang of how much thumb pressure equaled how much travel fore or aft, this was quite easy. Less than easy was adjusting the height of the Cornet 2: Because the tonearm mount is of such large diameter, and because it’s made without an upper collet of any sort, the grub screw that secures the arm pillar is snugged into the far end of a recess unusually deep, even given the oblique angle at which the recess was machined. Because that screw is nonetheless quite short, and because it’s made of nylon rather than metal, it was the very dickens to turn. Proponents of making fasteners “Linn-tight,” an inclination on which I’ll withhold judgment, will be confounded.”

ESTELON XB $35,900 REVIEW

July 10, 2015 Comments Off on ESTELON XB $35,900 REVIEW

http://goo.gl/MFkdQm Read Here

” The trick is to use virtually no toe-in. This isn’t a hardship, since the XB requires none to produce stellar imaging. Also, be sure to employ the supplied spikes. They’re not your run-of-the-mill doohickeys, but rather an integral part of the system. They do a commendable job of soothing the highs so you can focus on hearing what and how the musicians are playing. ”

HGH
