The biggest physical difference is the barrels and connectors. The Dreamy’s bulkier and curvier gold-finished barrels are consistent with the UM design language from their previous M1/M2 cables, with their clean cut lines and the easy grip form factor on the jack.
The Jet Link has a bit more dazzle about it with smaller but denser barrels and off-centered 3-dimensional motifs. Of the two, the Jet Link stands out a bit more with its more intricate barrel designs.
That perception is reinforced with the more pliant handling from the Jet Link cable. The matte PVC jacket on the Dreamy feels a little stiffer, and its memory coating is a little thinner when placed around the ear.


Musetec MH-DA006 DAC and MH-SA001 Pre-amplifier Review
September 22, 2025 Comments Off on Musetec MH-DA006 DAC and MH-SA001 Pre-amplifier Review
Volume control is independent for each input source, which can be useful in certain situations, for instance, to adjust for a source with a deviating output level. However, it can be inconvenient that this behavior cannot be changed. When switching between inputs to compare different sources, you have to adjust the volume for each source repeatedly. This can also lead to unexpected and unpleasant experiences if you leave a previously used input at a loud level, switch to another source, and then lower the volume. In this case, you might be caught off guard by the sudden loudness when you return to the first input.
The inputs for the Preamp and DAC can only be toggled through from the front panel, so only up/forward, not down/back.
The volume can be adjusted in 0.25 dB steps, which is a rare but very welcome feature. However, the volume adjustment operates at a single speed and does not increase when the volume dial is turned quickly or the remote control’s volume button is pressed for a longer duration. This means that more turns are needed to achieve the same level change as with the more common volume controls that use half-dB or whole-dB steps.

Aavik U-588 Unity Amplifier Review
September 18, 2025 Comments Off on Aavik U-588 Unity Amplifier Review
I was forewarned that my review sample was brand new and would need some running in, but that it would get on song relatively quickly. Before listening, I just switched it on and left it idling for several days.
For my initial listening impressions, I positioned the U-588 on an Artesania Organic Line Modular Floor Platform and connected it using a long Belden 19364 power cable. The Antipodes Oladra music server was used as a source, connected directly to the U-588 via Belden RG59 coax and simultaneously also via I2S to the LAiV uDDC and Harmony DAC. This way, I could test the Aavik’s analog preamp section and perform comparisons with its built-in DAC. Finally, to enable UPnP streaming via the network, I connected the U-588 via an Ethernet cable

Technics SC-CX700 Wireless Speaker System $2,999 REVIEW
September 18, 2025 Comments Off on Technics SC-CX700 Wireless Speaker System $2,999 REVIEW

The Technics SC-CX700 is a thoughtfully engineered speaker system that manages to combine high-resolution wireless playback with serious audio performance. Its coaxial driver design and dual-amp configuration produce excellent imaging, tonal clarity, and low-end control. The wireless platform is comprehensive and well-executed, and the system handles a wide variety of source material with confidence. While the all-digital sound signature may be a little forward sounding, the convenience of direct streaming shouldn’t be underestimated.
Build quality and aesthetics may not appeal to everyone, especially at this price point. And for those already invested in high-quality DACs and passive monitors, a traditional two-channel setup may offer more flexibility or better value. But for listeners looking for an elegant, fully integrated solution that doesn’t compromise on fidelity, the Technics SC-CX700 is a compelling option. It’s not just a wireless speaker. It’s a real playback system.
