HIDIZS MS3 REVIEW

August 5, 2023 Comments Off on HIDIZS MS3 REVIEW

Hidizs continues its uniquely shaped aluminum design that started with the MS5. The MS3 shares its aesthetics with its bigger brother, excluding the rose gold grille that resides under the aluminum faceplate of the MS5. In my opinion, the IEMs look even better without the grille, and I find MS3’s design quite nice. The ”angel wing design” of the Hidizs is unique and looks quite nice, especially in the ear, under different light sources.

SCHIIT MAGNI HERETIC HEADPHONE AMPLIFIER $109 REVIEW

August 4, 2023 Comments Off on SCHIIT MAGNI HERETIC HEADPHONE AMPLIFIER $109 REVIEW

Once powered up I got to try out some music as I was working. Like every headphone amp I’ve tested from Schiit, plenty of power is available here, you could run speakers from this amp with headroom to spare. Listening was fantastic; soundstage and clarity abound! Noise was non-existent and I couldn’t find any downsides or weaknesses to the listening experience. I like the FAQ section on the Schiit’s website that says “These sound so great! Why would I buy any of your other amps? Seriously, you really don’t need to. Hence the “no excuses.” Yeah, that’s pretty true, I mean, maybe a tube amp is more your thing? Honestly though for $109, you can’t go wrong. It just sounds great and doesn’t seem to be lacking anywhere in the audio quality department.

CHORD MOJO 2 HEADPHONE AMPLIFIER $775 REVIEW

August 4, 2023 Comments Off on CHORD MOJO 2 HEADPHONE AMPLIFIER $775 REVIEW

As a DAC the Chord Mojo2 is quite an accomplishment, after all, it does equate to the summit of all of Chord’s accomplishments, and it will crush almost any chip-based DAC, which pretty much means anything in its price range, on the other hand, despite having the most up to date software you can’t really expect it to compete with the more expensive Chord products, hardware does account for a great deal, which leaves me still wanting to audition one of their higher-end products in a controlled environment. But, if you are looking for a portable DAC/Headphone amplifier for under $1,000 you simply can’t do better than the Chord Mojo2.

PrimaLuna EVO 100 Tube Phono Preamplifier £3398 Review

August 3, 2023 Comments Off on PrimaLuna EVO 100 Tube Phono Preamplifier £3398 Review

Let’s get one thing clear from the outset. With the exception of (London) Decca cartridges, which are out there in their own space, the EVO 100 Tube Phono excels with moving-coils, as these are more simpatico with the overall nature of the unit. That said, if you find it too warm, moving-magnets from Ortofon and others add a touch of coolness or even restraint.

Having ascertained that the Ortofon MMs – three different colours of 2M – were sounding of their best and even benefitting from the very tubes that they corralled, I moved onto MCs, including an aged Tsurugi (which sired Lyra), the EAT Jo No8 [HFN Dec ’19], and the reborn Kiseki [HFN Jul ’18]. It was here that I began to appreciate the phono stage’s two-pronged approach of matching gain and impedance. To my delight, none of the settings were best at the manufacturers’ recommended values, the EVO 100 reinforcing my belief that you need to set your cartridges by ear.

KIWI EARS ORCHESTRA LITE REVIEW

August 3, 2023 Comments Off on KIWI EARS ORCHESTRA LITE REVIEW

In terms of fit and comfort, the Orchestra Lite is very good and fully met my expectations. Despite their relatively large shell size, they fit snugly and comfortably in my ears without any discomfort. However, as with any large earphones, fit can be subjective and vary from person to person, so it’s a good idea to try them on before you buy, especially if you have small ears.

WOO AUDIO WA7E DAC/TUBE ELECTROSTATIC HEADPHONE AMPLIFIER $1,399 REVIEW

August 2, 2023 Comments Off on WOO AUDIO WA7E DAC/TUBE ELECTROSTATIC HEADPHONE AMPLIFIER $1,399 REVIEW

My final thought is this, like its brother the WA7 Fireflies, with a huge three-dimensional soundstage, a linear tonal balance down to 15Hz, natural timbre to the instruments, the speed and detail of an electrostatic, with plenty of dynamic range the Woo Audio WA7e DAC/Tube Electrostatic Headphone Amplifier punches way above its weight class.
