VANDERSTEEN AUDIO TREO CT FLOORSTANDING LOUDSPEAKER REVIEW
January 7, 2017 Comments Off on VANDERSTEEN AUDIO TREO CT FLOORSTANDING LOUDSPEAKER REVIEW
” For a final listen it was time for some digital audio. My PS Audio DirectStream DSD DAC was streaming from my NAS via the Bridge II Roon ready Ethernet connection. The DAC was playing through the PS Audio BHK Pre with AudioQuest MacKenzie interconnects, with the stack sitting on Stillpoints Ultra SS isolation pods. Time for a personal all-time favourite. Sting’s Ten Summoner’s Tales [Lossless CD rip at 16/44 AIFF, 1993 A&M Records] has been played countless times in the Neff man cave. ‘Shape of My Heart’ has an intimacy and sense of space and resonance that almost begs you to turn the lights down and close your eyes.”

” To sum up, the Audeze sound was skewed slightly more towards the bass end of the audio spectrum, and had excellent detail, but not the glorious highs of the V2s. And although the Audezes are respectable in the area of soundstaging (better than most ’phones I’ve heard), the V2s are even better—both better than I would expect to hear from headphones. The most significant difference was comfort: After wearing the V2s, it was almost unpleasant to go back to the Audezes. And the longer I wore them, the stronger that impression became. The V2s looked far better than the rather utilitarian Audezes—not that I could see them while listening, but if you’re shelling out big bucks, it’s not goofy to want a headphone with looks to match.”

Technics SL-1200GR Grand Class Direct Drive Turntable NEW
January 5, 2017 Comments Off on Technics SL-1200GR Grand Class Direct Drive Turntable NEW
“
Technics brought back legendary SL-1200 last year with a grand pomp and now, they’re updating it with the all new SL-1200 Grand Class model. SL-1200 is not a typical audiophile turntable, but there are quite few people, that will duel anyone into the sparkling discussion… There is no pricing info yet, but if last year model was 4K it surely won’t come cheaper.”

“The triangular nature of our network audio configuration still applies to Roon: Roon runs on the Intel NUC as the Core (server) and sends audio over the network to a third party Roon Ready endpoint – one that’s connected directly to one of the LS50 Wireless’ digital inputs – as is instructed by the Roon smartphone/desktop app.”
