PS AUDIO BHK 250 HYBRID POWER AMPLIFIER £8,000 REVIEW
June 10, 2017 Comments Off on PS AUDIO BHK 250 HYBRID POWER AMPLIFIER £8,000 REVIEW
” In the centre of it all were the pure saxophone tones of the master, Grover Washington Jr. It was a clinic on musicality and a joy to experience. While I was enjoying the rest of the SACD, I came over all alpha-nerd and perused the parts list of the BHK 250. PRP Resistors matched up with film and foil Rel Caps all hand soldered through the circuit board without surface mount components. An approach found primarily on gear running well beyond £10,000. Sonic quality with sound (no pun intended) value. The BHK 250 was ticking many of my ‘need to have’ audio boxes.”

CYRUS AUDIO ONE INTEGRATED AMPLIFIER REVIEW
June 9, 2017 Comments Off on CYRUS AUDIO ONE INTEGRATED AMPLIFIER REVIEW
“The fact that Cyrus updated the firmware several months after the One’s late summer launch implies that the company plans ongoing improvement, which is great. But more significantly, few brands have succeeded with Class D amplification as Cyrus has in making the One such an entertaining and well equipped amplifier at a reasonable price. The remote may be small enough to lose in minutes, but the app is a free upgrade that makes the One much more ergonomic. Add this to scorching sound and you have a product that should put this brand back at the top of the value for money tree
BURMESTER 099 LINE PREAMPLIFIER REVIEW
June 9, 2017 Comments Off on BURMESTER 099 LINE PREAMPLIFIER REVIEW
The 099 is a refined performer, capable of being sat in front of for hours on end without fatigue. This is not code for ‘dull’; it’s detailed and dynamic, and – coupled to the right power amplifier – can handle the loud end of the volume control without introducing any kind of compression or distortion. In fact, were it not for the refinement, the effortless ability for this preamp to push any amplifier to its limits could make it a brute force design. As it is, the 099 is the archetypal ‘mail’d fist in a velvet glove’ design, with that combination of beefy grip over the rest of the system coupled with a sense of grace and charm as it stays in complete control.”

ONKYO DP-S1 RUBATO REVIEW
June 8, 2017 Comments Off on ONKYO DP-S1 RUBATO REVIEW
” I can even shave a song forward or back to precisely the second I left off. A vertical bar shows where you are in the song and as long as your finger is on the scrobbler, is always visible. Tapping anywhere on the album art pauses the player. When the DP-S1 is locked, inadvertent changes in attenuator position can be muted. Better yet, the attenuator doesn’t commandeer the touch screen, possibly forcing jumps up or down when all you wanted to do was change tracks or browse music. The only DSP available when playing DSD files is the low-pass filter. The Onkyo DP-S1 doesn’t properly do gapless, but gaps are small, pop-less, and even between DSD files, not terribly long.”

Classé Audio Sigma 2200i Integrated Amplifier $5500 Review
June 8, 2017 Comments Off on Classé Audio Sigma 2200i Integrated Amplifier $5500 Review
“However, despite these setbacks, the Sigma 2200i was not a one-trick pony. It has an extra surprise up its sleeve. Connecting via the Ethernet connection to a router makes the Sigma 2200i a network player via Apple Airplay and DLNA. I could use my iPhone to play both my iTunes and Tidal libraries wirelessly. And best of all, hitting the Airplay button on my phone automatically moved the Sigma 2200i from whatever input it was set on to Network. No muss, no fuss, just fast musical pleasure.”
