KEF Blade Two Loudspeakers Review
July 10, 2016 Comments Off on KEF Blade Two Loudspeakers Review
“Some may see the Blade Two’s very unusual shape as being a statement more of style than of sound quality. While it’s true that the Blade received high praise for its beautiful appearance when it was released in 2011, and the Two received similar accolades on its release three years later, there’s a reason Doug Schneider said it was as exciting to listen to as to look at: Its sound quality is the equal of its appearance, which makes it an easy choice for our list of Recommended Reference Components.”

64 Audio U12 $1599 Review
July 10, 2016 Comments Off on 64 Audio U12 $1599 Review
” 64 Audio have done a good job in capitalising on ADEL’s modular technology which has been proven to be more than just a novelty marketing piece. Along with their own input and fine refinement of the U12’s tuning, the company has released a force to be reckoned with in the saturated market of personal audio. At $1599, the U12 is by no means cheap but an investment that could certainly pay off in the long run both in terms of hearing preservation and pure sonic enjoyment. What’s more is that Asius Technologies are working on the release of adjustable modules to fine tune the listening experience of the U12 to your own liking. Unlike filters which just change the sound of the signature, these adjustable modules feature the same diaphonic lens of the stock ADEL module and have the ability to alter isolation levels. An exciting time indeed—do stay tuned for more…

” Looking back at the impulse response (above) confirms as much. Note the squiggle just beyond around 10ms? That’s the room coming into play. Throwing it back to high school science, we recall that time corresponds to frequency: 1000ms equates to 1Hz. Similarly 10ms converts to 100Hz.”

” As for DSD, the performance was pretty much the same. The noise floor was just one decibel higher. The -3dB frequency response point was at 50kHz in accordance with the recommended anti-aliasing specifications for DSD, and -6dB was at 62kHz. High resolution PCM or DSD, you’re going to get the same effective performance, barring only the differences in signal processing, and then only if you’re keeping your DSD pure.”

ULTIMATE EARS PRO REFERENCE REMASTERED CUSTOM IN-EAR MONITORS REVIEW
July 9, 2016 Comments Off on ULTIMATE EARS PRO REFERENCE REMASTERED CUSTOM IN-EAR MONITORS REVIEW
”
The Reference Remastered strikes me as nothing so much as a tool, perhaps THE tool, to help you find and sort all the sounds you were meant to discover in both music and video. It is easily one of the most dynamic, natural-sounding components I’ve ever heard and for anyone craving neutrality, resolution, and involvement; it is highly, highly recommended.”
