EarMen L-Amp $399 Review

This shows that power is not an issue and can be controlled even with those harder-to-drive units. IEMs, on the other hand, benefit from the IEM switch, darkening the background to a minimum, especially with the notoriously delicate Campfire Audio offerings.
What transpired is a thoroughly organic, yet musical sound emanating forth with deep-reaching bass (especially with Bass+ on) that flowed without bother into the sumptuously tube-like midrange.
The treble reach, while not far-reaching, lends enough presence to expand the height of sound offered. Vocals come across as thick and lush but accurate, finishing off the L-Amp sound signature.

The Reference 330M amplifier not only delivers massive power, slam, detail and refinement from a valve-based design, it also does all this without the trepidation and limitations of the apocryphal tube amp. Ignore the substantial weight and price, and this speaker-tolerant design will slot into a high-end system as easily as any solid-state rival. All this, and the promise of a truly scintillating musical performance.
EAT Fortissimo/F-Note turntable/arm Review

I’ve recently been reviewing mono albums, so it was interesting to hear how the EAT package dealt with the bedlam of psychedelia piled into the centre. The Tangerine Zoo’s eponymous debut [Sundazed/Mainstream LP5673] provided ample fodder for testing both the solidity of central placement as well as the layering of sound. Instead of a morass of crazed instrumentation, it was almost forensic in the way it allowed the listener to separate massed instruments.
Obviously, a mono album such as the smooth jazz quintet of Kenny Burrell & John Coltrane [Craft Recordings/New Jazz CR00720] didn’t present this challenge. Instead, it tested how full could be the single-channel sound. The Fortissimo/F-Note sounded as imposing as one would want a mono-only masterpiece, filling the stage, and I have no doubt that this aspect is a by-product of the deck having been voiced for orchestras.

Schiit Audio Skoll F Balanced Discrete Class A Phono Preamp $399 Review
May 30, 2025 Comments Off on Schiit Audio Skoll F Balanced Discrete Class A Phono Preamp $399 Review
With a linear tonal balance, excellent dynamic range, and extreme noise floor which gives you a massive soundstage the Skoll F is a fantastic stage phono stage, and with the ability to control both input impedance and input capacitance along with both single-ended and balanced inputs (for those who have a second turntable for 78s or mono, the switchable inputs is a boon), an LF filter and four position gain control the Skoll F is incredibly versatile and the remote and Forkbeard control which add to the convenience making the Skoll F a stellar choice pitching way above its pay grade.
