AUDEZE SINE PORTABLE HEADPHONES REVIEW
June 19, 2016 Comments Off on AUDEZE SINE PORTABLE HEADPHONES REVIEW
” Rush’s 2112 is a unique classic rock recording that offers outstanding spaciousness and complexity. It’s not just a guitar, bass guitar, drums and vocals and when played through the SINE headphones its brilliance really shines through. Many on-ear headphones struggle with this recording and sound too closed in and lose a lot of the details that really make this album special; but this is certainly not the case with Audeze’s SINEs. Geddy’s vocals were equally brilliant and the raw energy of his voice shone throughout the record. As well, Robert Plant’s equally energetic vocals were spot on and the vocal range was a very strong suit for the SINE headphones; throw in the brilliance of Jimmy Page’s guitar work and raw thump and power of John Bonham’s drum work, I would wholeheartedly recommend these headphones for you rock fans out there!”

Mola Mola Kaluga Mono Amplifiers $16,500 Review
June 19, 2016 Comments Off on Mola Mola Kaluga Mono Amplifiers $16,500 Review
” During the months I listened to the Kaluga, and regardless of the preamplifier used — at first my Ayre Acoustics KX-R Twenty, then Mola Mola’s Makua, and finally Ayre’s Codex in variable output mode — I experienced an ease that I’d hoped for but could not assume I would hear. This ease not only defied the conventional wisdom regarding the limitations of class-D sound, but embodied the sense of musical reality often attributed to and associated most closely with class-A amplification.”

” I also listened to the ‘Black and ‘Red plugged into my iPhone 6S. Again the sound impressed with some of the same headphones mentioned above. Then I tried a few in-ear headphones, starting with the Klipsch Reference X6i and Cardas A8, comparing the iPhone 6S’ headphone jack with the sound of the Red. The difference in sound quality wasn’t nearly as significant as it was with full-size headphones.”

June 18, 2016 Comments Off on Style Jukebox Hi-Res player and music Manager NEW
“People say that Style Jukebox is what iTunes Cloud should have been – a music service for people with a music collection – that’s easy to use for casual listeners, but powerful enough for hard-core listeners who care about audio quality, music organizing, lossless music, and more.”

” Even more fun and testing. MSB Select DAC in very particular system. Avantgarde Trios, FM 268C, full stack of Burmester subs and two Velodyne on the back, Skogrand Cables etc… Warming up and we’re getting there”

Beyerdynamic T1 Headphone Review
June 18, 2016 Comments Off on Beyerdynamic T1 Headphone Review
” The old and new T1s are high-impedance (600-ohm) designs, so they won’t sound their best with smartphones and run-of-the-mill port- able devices. Even so, I had good results with Chord’s mighty little Mojo USB digital converter/headphone amp. At home, the solid-state Oppo HA-1 amp was a good match. My old reliable NAD C316BEE stereo integrated amp was just a few notches down in fully exploiting the T1’s ultimate potential, but it still wasn’t at all bad. The magic really happened, though, when I paired the T1 with my Woo Audio WA6SE all-tube headphone amp. Its sweetened tonality made everything go down easy. The imaging opened wide, and bass heft filled out. As with all the best headphones, the T1’s character changes with each amp; they clue you in to sound in ways that lesser ’phones gloss over.”

NUPRIME IDA-8 INTEGRATED AMPLIFIER $995 REVIEW
June 17, 2016 Comments Off on NUPRIME IDA-8 INTEGRATED AMPLIFIER $995 REVIEW
“In my experience, the downsides to the IDA-8 were few. Upon occasion, the upper treble thinned out a touch, but not much. Can fans might well miss a headphone input option. The only moments I felt something was missing occurred when the sound of the digitally converted analog signal softened ever so slightly due to A-to-D processing; the effect is quite subtle and hard to describe, but once in a while, it seemed some of the raw impact on my LPs was lost. I want to stress that the instances when I noticed this were few and far between and never detracted from my musical enjoyment. Perhaps digital devotees would not register this. The tradeoff here, I would say, is the IDA-8’s consistently lovely and uncannily liquid presentation.”

Paradigm Premium Wireless Multiroom Audio System Review
June 17, 2016 Comments Off on Paradigm Premium Wireless Multiroom Audio System Review
” Anthem Room Correction routinely gets top-notch ratings, and even though ARC is slimmed down in the PW series, it’s easy to hear why it’s so well respected. Of course, the differences you hear will depend on the room, the sound system’s location in the room, and your finesse with the measurement procedure. In very general terms, in my room, the bass got tighter (but not necessarily louder), the midrange gained clarity, and the highs became less aggressive and harsh without losing detail. One of the many cool things about ARC is that after you’ve completed the calibration process, you can print out a report containing graphs of the frequency response pre- and post-ARC”
