ROKSAN RADIUS 7 PINK REVIEW
August 31, 2017 Comments Off on ROKSAN RADIUS 7 PINK REVIEW
“Compared to a more expensive VPI Prime, the Radius does surprisingly well. This is a better comparison than it might first seem as both use unipivot tonearms. The two go largely toe-to-toe at the upper and midrange points, but where the Prime pulls ahead is in the bass. While the Roksan delivers a clean, taut bass, the VPI delivers a clean, taut, and deep bass. The Roksan is not bass light though, indeed, partnered as might be appropriate given the Radius’ price, the lack of overhang may be better suited to systems than more stentorian designs, which can sound stodgy in context. It’s just that the decay of the left hand of a piano seems to be less noticeable on the Radius.”
SONY WM1Z WALKMAN – REVIEW
August 31, 2017 Comments Off on SONY WM1Z WALKMAN – REVIEW
” The Sony WM1Z gives the fullest and most complete bass I’ve heard from a DAP. It’s a huge bass response but neither midbass or subbass stands out in the recordings, unless the recording has such a trait in itself. It has a wonderful bass control and balance in terms of that, while continuously giving the body. Lows feel so complete all the time and that way you hear an atmospheric sound, especially with live recordings.”

Mytek Brooklyn DAC Review
August 30, 2017 Comments Off on Mytek Brooklyn DAC Review
“The Mytek Brooklyn is a great DAC for consumers seeking a lot of features and functions in one box. There’s not much it doesn’t do which is fantastic at its price point. With MQA on the precipice of becoming mainstream, the Brooklyn represents a great value proposition for those who want to take full advantage of this high-quality format. I used the Brooklyn as my main DAC for several months and would describe it as an above-average performer across the board. If you seek good performance with a full arsenal of features, you can confidently consider the Mytek Brooklyn for your stereo audio system”
MAGICO S1 MK II FLOORSTANDING LOUDSPEAKER REVIEW
August 29, 2017 Comments Off on MAGICO S1 MK II FLOORSTANDING LOUDSPEAKER REVIEW
“The Magico S1 Mk II is a product of superlatives. You can’t express that without appearing to be a rabid fan of the product, because if you like loudspeakers that are neutral, you are a fan of the product, and if you’ve heard the original S1, you’re an even bigger fan of the S1 Mk II. So, yes, the superlatives come with the territory. The Magico S1 Mk II is, quite simply, outstanding. Very highly recommended!

Bricasti M5 network player Review
August 29, 2017 Comments Off on Bricasti M5 network player Review
“The M5 positively shines using USB. In a way it has picked up some of the enthusiasm and liveliness of the Antipodes DS while retaining all of its smooth, organic and relaxed character and for this reason I feel that it provides an overall more high end rendition. Naturally this is also a matter of taste and system matching, but when taking the Aurender as a reference, the M5 has a different character but sounds closer to it in terms of overall refinement than does the DS. Taste matters aside (although I can’t stop talking about its superb bass and gloriously lush midrange), this gives the M5 the edge.”
