“At no point did the output signal degrade in any way. In no way did noise audibly jump up. At no point did Telos puff up IMD into any channel. At all points did Telos drop by drawers. Damn, it sounds, and performs, fine”
” The stage cast by the HDA Telos is wide, and fuller in 3D depth than mere expanse. It goes widest in the middle, peripheral details in bass and treble clamping along the sides. That lovely bass nails everything in place.”

“The speed and precision of solid-state plus the warm, textural feel of tubes. With products like the Virtuoso, I don’t feel the need to warm things up. The sound is controlled, but not so linear that it bores me. There’s excitability to the music, a lively-ness that’s engaging and fun – but also realistic”

” Regardless of how a signal will be delivered to Manhattan, it will deliver an orderly, well thought-through sound. Not to bright but selective and tuneful. Hi-res files, especially DSD ones, seem to offer slightly “softer” sound, more open, with more air. For me though, a classic CD transport still has some advantages, like coherence and liquidity of the sound.”

” The treble extension is much more natural and doesn’t sound coaxed or pushed thus creates a natural roll out rather than a forced impression. There is virtually no sibilance to presentation of the upper frequencies while there isn’t much in the way of harshness to the mid-range either. The Sovtec tubes still had a bit of hardness to the mid-range so the change in tubes is welcome addition rather than a subtraction.”

“Listening to the beautiful Nuevo-Tango tunes from MA Recordings’ Sera Un Noche high-res offerings, for instance, puts me in that recording space and helps me to envision the spread quite naturally. The spaciousness of Garfinkle’s recording is the stuff of legend, of course, but because spatial cues can be somewhat delicate these are also easily masked by overtly colored components. Contrastingly, the acoustic signature and the general studio-sound of Sufjan Stevens’ album, Seven Swans, is more readily apparent than it has been with other setups I’ve had here. As a bit of a neutral-reference, the EF100 seems well-suited to the task. –

” The sound of the Apex Teton can best be described as fast, liquid, and immersive. Like other top-of-the-line amplifiers that I have heard, the Teton delivers its unique sound signature in a way that is pretty much flawless. This isn’t some warm tubey-sounding amplifier that as a result of its warmth ends up missing the last bit of detail or feeling slightly veiled”

” Interestingly I found the current drive to respond quite differently with BA as opposed to dynamic drivers. In most cases with BA drivers the output followed the same path as planars with a focus on speed, clarity and a neutral sound signature that was quite linear. Whether it was four or 8 drivers the dynamics of each IEM stayed true to that reference signature. BA’s test included 2 customs, the Harmony 8, Visions Ears VE6X and the more midfi Westone”

” Perhaps more important was the detailed sense of ambience I heard. I got more than just a general sense of reverb; I got a very precise sense of sounds reflected off the surfaces of the concert halls in which these recordings were made.”
