Audion Silver Night 300B Special Edition Stereo Amplifier Review
December 8, 2015 Comments Off on Audion Silver Night 300B Special Edition Stereo Amplifier Review
” The Audion 300B Special Edition has a completely new driver section and redesigned output transformers that are the result of years of development. Audion has been making and winding their own audio transformers in house for nearly 8 years to exacting standards. So its no surprise this new design brings the most out of a 300B tube.”

Monitor Audio Gold 50 $1,795 Review

” The G50s very much follow in their predecessors’ footprint with a sonic character that’s clean, detailed, open and precise. While we don’t have the GX50s to hand, from memory, the G50s sound livelier and a little clearer too. But even so, they aren’t the last word in excitement.”

PrimaLuna DiaLogue Premium Preamplifier Review
December 7, 2015 Comments Off on PrimaLuna DiaLogue Premium Preamplifier Review
” I think Chesky Records did a nice digital transfer from the original analog master tape of Rene Leibowitz conducting Beethoven’s Symphony No. 2 and No.5. The PrimaLuna duo delivered nice harmonic realism of live acoustic instruments. The presentation of micro and macro dynamic ranges was near excellent. This is one of the reasons why I have always owned active preamplifiers-except for one instance which I considered was the best sounding of the passive breed at that time. Except for one or two exceptions, in my experience I have found passive preamplifiers or attenuators terrific at presenting transparency, resolution, and image specificity, but lacking a bit in macro-dynamics and bass impact”

JDS Labs Element Review
December 7, 2015 Comments Off on JDS Labs Element Review
“I still find it incredible that JDS Labs can produce a product this good at the price they do, I think if you only want one desktop solid state amplifier, this is the only one you will need. You don’t need to spend mega money on a good set up. I personally think this can take on amps twice its price and beat them, in refinement and also in its capability to drive all headphones.”

NORDOST ODIN 2 CABLES £43,399/4m terminated REVIEW
December 6, 2015 Comments Off on NORDOST ODIN 2 CABLES £43,399/4m terminated REVIEW
” In short, Nordost’s Odin 2 doesn’t just push the envelope of how unforced audio can sound through a cable; it breaks the sound barrier. Nordost’s original Odin set high standards for cables, whether viewed individually, or in ideal circumstances taken as a complete system. And Odin 2 takes that to another level. The best that became ‘one of the best’ has just returned to its place at the head of the table. Wow!”

Artison RCC Nano 1 Subwoofer Review
December 6, 2015 Comments Off on Artison RCC Nano 1 Subwoofer Review
” This clearly went lower and sounded tighter, with considerably less boom, at the sacrifice of perhaps 4 or 5 dB of max level. Multiple Nanos might be a viable option for bigger spaces: The manual states that up to three can be driven from a single wireless link, and while there’s no wired daisy-chain output, a Y-cable or two could accomplish the same end.”
