” The ability of a turntable to move the music along rhythmically has somewhat to do with speed consistency but another factor is it’s ability to handle low frequencies without getting them “mixed up”. The amount of energy, especially low frequency energy produced at the stylus/groove interface is great, despite RIAA bass roll-off. That energy travels both into the tone arm and into the record, platter and plinth.”

” It sounds somewhat analytical and slightly dry in its overall presentation of the music. This is where the Violin SE pulled way ahead in being able to allow me to relax and get into the emotions of the music because of its rich and full tonality/color/timbres, without losing micro-details or transient speed.”

” I would argue that the more beautiful something is and the more pleasant to use, the more it will BE used. The WA22 fits the bill on both counts, and it’s built like something you could hand down to your offspring”

“I was pleasantly surprised by how little the e112’s crossover changed midrange and treble performance. Many high-end preamps aren’t this transparent.”

Oracle Paris MKV turntable – Review

” In the ending Manteca, the implacable beat of the most talented jazz bassist together with the most talented pianist gives a joyful and gratifying sound to the listener. The happy union between inspiration and technique, the involvement of the musicians, the quality of the sound, makes this album one of the best experiments of excitement in jazz. The essence has been extrapolated by the Paris, although with some limits concerning the naturalness of the musical message, the fullness of the scene, the timbric balance, the clearness and stability of the image. I did not expect more.”

“The Momentum Wireless’ ear cups are lined with thick memory foam pads cloaked in soft leather, encircling a felt-lined interior. A simple control system is ebedded into the right ear cup, including a power/pair button, and a multi-function switch that controls volume, song skip, and play/pause”

“I’ve not heard many speaker vendors openly discuss this point. Paul Coupe of Reference Fidelity Components is one who does – and willingly, too. Before you buy a pair of RFC speakers from him not only will he want to know what your proposed partnering electronics are but he’ll want listening room dimensions and furnishings too”

“Regardless, there I was, at midnight, ahem, enjoying Bolero. And Keith Johnson’s excellent recording certainly allowed the VTL gear to shine. My Maggie 1.7s performed a pretty impressive disappearing act, with a stage as wide as the room and a depth that seemingly stretched far outside its rear wall.”

AURALIC TAURUS MK.II Headphone Amp $1900 REVIEW

” Another nit to pick with the Taurus is that I somehow found myself preferring the sound of the single-ended outputs over the balanced with my headphones. I am not savvy enough to know the technical reasoning behind these findings. I just know that the single-ended output seemed to offer left-to-right imaging that, while a touch narrower in width, seemed a bit more relaxed and natural to my ears.

” The over-ear pads provide a less bassy sound, reducing both impact and depth compared to the on-ear configuration. Bass bloat is also diminished slightly. Perhaps the over-ear option was tuned for less bass on purpose, in order to compete with more balanced, higher-end full-size headphones.”
