Ohm Acoustics Walsh Tall 5000 Floorstanding Speaker Review
May 16, 2017 Comments Off on Ohm Acoustics Walsh Tall 5000 Floorstanding Speaker Review
” The Ohm Walsh Tall 5000 speaker possesses some very interesting technology that is not often used in the audio industry today. My experience with the Ohm speakers led me to ask the question, why? Unfortunately, I did not come up with a good answer. The best I could surmise is that it may be a difficult technology to implement with the same results that Ohm Acoustics can achieve, and at the price point Ohm can offer”
MEZE 12 CLASSICS IN-EAR MONITORS REVIEW
May 16, 2017 Comments Off on MEZE 12 CLASSICS IN-EAR MONITORS REVIEW
“First off, yes there was a reasonable improvement, indicating that the drivers on the 12 Classics were transparent enough to pick up on the upstream enhancements; quite impressive for a pair of $79 in-ear monitors. Most I’ve trialed sounded almost identical in this comparison. But secondly what really grabbed my attention was the thunderous, impactful bass and never slow, nor plodding. Rather well defined and quite life-like and quite comparable to full sized headphones. If you are a fan of the Audeze LCD sound or Sony Z1R and are looking for an outstanding pair of inexpensive IEMs, I strongly suggest you look into the 12 Classics”

Ayon Audio Vulcan Evo Amplifiers $41,400 Review
May 16, 2017 Comments Off on Ayon Audio Vulcan Evo Amplifiers $41,400 Review
” Summing up the sound of the Vulcan Evos I would say that they are refined and subtle with great perceived transparency and resolution, both in terms of individual instruments and sounds as well as how they carve out resolution in the soundstage and capable of delivering huge macrodynamic contrasts. There seems to be no blunting or rounding of dynamics throughout a large envelope, at least with my speakers. Inner resolution and the sense of action in sound was among the very best I have heard.”

“I finished up with Sufjan Stevens’ new one, “Carrie and Lowell Live,” and the intimacy and vibrancy of the sound made me feel like I was in the presence of the band. There’s not much more I can ask from a relatively small speaker.”

Ultimate Ears Pro 18+ Custom IEMs $1500 Review
May 15, 2017 Comments Off on Ultimate Ears Pro 18+ Custom IEMs $1500 Review
” The UE 18+ Pro pairs fantastically with Fiio’s 3rd generation X5 DAP; the sound signature is smooth with great body and detailing. The Questyle QP1R, on the other hand, extracts even more detailing albeit with a slight compromise in soundstage proportions. The Fiio X7 presents a more analytical sound than Fiio’s 3rd generation X5 DAP with similar levels of separation and openness. At 37.5 Ohms, the UE 18+ Pro is ever so slightly harder to drive than the UERM and the UERR but is still relatively easy to drive in the grand scheme of desktop listening, DAPs and portable headphone amps.”

”
The boards are made of thick audio-grade and anti-resonance glass fibre with 70uM gold plated conductors and power a sophisticated triple crossover network and a summing midrange multi-slope design to perfectly integrate the drivers of the array. Midranges and Woofers ultra-linear drivers are developed with SEAS and enhanced with proprietary metal chassis produced by MIM [Metal Injection Molding], and refined with radial reinforced low loss rubber surrounds, custom copper phaser and heavy copper rings.”
AURALiC Altair Wireless Streaming DAC $1899 Review
May 13, 2017 Comments Off on AURALiC Altair Wireless Streaming DAC $1899 Review
“I remember being blown away by the AURALiC Vega playing DSD files. I can’t be positive because the Vega left my sound room many months ago, but I wasn’t as impressed with the Altair on DSD. Don’t get me wrong, DSD sounded great but just not as great as I remembered with the Vega. With DSD I had more of a sensation of listening to musicians playing in a definable space rather than in a studio. There was more air and separation more often on DSD than on .flac. ”
