Sonoma Model One Headphone System $4,995 Review
December 31, 2017 § 1 Comment
“The result is a fairly massive looking set of headphones that doesn’t feel it. Design geeks in the crowd will flip over the careful attention to fine detail, right down to the high level of fit and finish present thanks to high precision stainless fasteners. Finally, Sonoma collaborated with Straight Wire to design a custom cable from the ground up to transmit the maximum amount of audio information. The cable alone looks like something you’d buy in the aftermarket for $500 – $1,000. Who wants to buy a $5,000 pair of phones, only to have to upgrade the cable?”

MrSpeakers Ether Flow Review

Highs: The highs are excellent on the Ether Flow, true treble heads will crave a tiny bit more presence but the quality here is outstanding. They are always present in the mix, and the spatial accuracy of the highs is very good. You can pinpoint where instruments are in the mix very easily, what I enjoy is the natural tone of the highs. They are not artificially boosted and are far from metallic sounding, coming across with a very natural tone. The thing about the Ether Flow is they are not the most open sounding headphones but there is excellent imaging and coherency. The highs might not have extreme energy or sparkle, but they do extend well and the Ether Flow is far from a dark sounding headphone.

FOSTEX TH610 HEADPHONES AND HPA4BL DAC/HEADPHONE AMPLIFIER REVIEW
December 20, 2017 Comments Off on FOSTEX TH610 HEADPHONES AND HPA4BL DAC/HEADPHONE AMPLIFIER REVIEW
“For those looking for a beautifully made pair of headphones, which can do bass like the best of them, you should definitely audition these headphones. However, for me, they are a much more attractive proposition teamed up with the HBA4BL as a partner, which is not only an excellent Headphone/DAC amplifier for the money, but also is a match made-in-heaven for the headphones.”

STAX SRS-3100 ELECTROSTATIC ‘EARSPEAKER’ SYSTEM REVIEW
December 16, 2017 Comments Off on STAX SRS-3100 ELECTROSTATIC ‘EARSPEAKER’ SYSTEM REVIEW
“The Stax SRS-3100 system is all about getting new people to experience electrostatic headphone (sorry, ‘earspeaker’) sound, and it achieves that goal brilliantly! People erroneously discount electrostatic headphone systems because ‘they are too expensive’, and then spend thousands on their dynamic headphone system. This deserves to be better known, because so many of those people would never look back. This really is ‘My First Electrostatic’ and if that fits your place in listening, the SRS-3100 is a joy to try.”
