“The rear panel contains both single-ended RCA and balanced XLR input connectors allowing the VT80 to be integrated into virtually any system. In addition to a tube hour meter, there is a 12V trigger and an RS232 port to remotely control operation. 4- and 8-ohm brass and gold binding posts provide secure speaker connections. There is also a switch to engage or defeat an auto-off function, triggered when no input signal is encountered after four hours.”

BURSON AUDIO SOLOIST SL MK2 REVIEW

November 19, 2016 Comments Off on BURSON AUDIO SOLOIST SL MK2 REVIEW

Read Here

“When I paired this model with the Focal Elear ($999) and my Cowon Plenue M used as a DAC ($899) I’d experienced one of those “Hifi Moments” we audiophiles hunt for years to find. In the track titled In my Fathers House, by an artist called Eric Bibb, album titled Spirit & The Blues…I remembered why I was an audiophile for the first time all year. Of course, after using the Burson, I had swapped to a much more expensive amp to re-experience it, but what is important here is that it started on the Soloist MK2 first. There is a specific point in this track where a new, secondary artist sings into only the stereo-left channel, which caused me to literally jerk my head to the side to see if someone was standing beside me trying to speak to me suddenly.

” Equally obvious was how clearly and powerfully the ProLogue Premium reproduced bass. Even through small speakers, bass scale—the ability of deep sounds to also be big sounds, when they’re supposed to—was exceptional. High frequencies had a captivating purity. If the PrimaLuna lacked anything”

Shure KSE1500 electrostatic in-ear headphone system Review

” I had two problems with the KSE1500 amplifier. The first is that while having inputs and outputs on opposite ends of the case makes for a logical circuit layout, it means that it can’t comfortably fit in a shirt or jacket pocket.

Hifiman HE1000 V2 headphones Review

November 16, 2016 Comments Off on Hifiman HE1000 V2 headphones Review

“The HE1000 V2’s look, feel and sound embody the very best of the high-end aesthetic, but is it the best sounding headphone? Some think that honor belongs to the Stax SR-009 electrostatic headphone, but I disagree, the SR-009 lacks the dynamic slam and bass oomph of the HE1000 V2.”
