” The mids fair well with all vocals, and never sound offensive. I would say they sit just behind the lows in presentation, but do not sound recessed or veiled. I cannot detect any sibilance in the upper mids, and they are just very enjoyable, with no major dips or peaks. Guitars have grunt, vocals are clean and detailed, the mids really don’t do anything wrong. I really enjoy listening to vocals on these, as they have a very clear presentation, they don’t really add any flavour to the mids, they present them as they should be.”

“I swopped in my Synergistic Research X Series Alpha Sterling with Active Shielding interconnects (all my SR MPC’s have been modified to near-Galileo performance) and started playing assorted audio files from the Mac Book Pro using Decibel software tethered by the original Kimber .5m USB cable – much better! Substituting the Transparent USB cable improved things even more”
Kuzma Stabi S Turn Table

“While rock music was my staple LP diet with the Kuzma, I also had the chance to play with audiophile approved black disc, such as the M&K Super Sampler, which has everything in a test disc. Playing the Flamenco Fever sampler track Llorona the dynamics of the calypso in contrast to the floor stomping of the dancer is mind blowing. I’ve never quite heard such strong dynamics, stirring vocla emotion of the singing and the overall musicality of the whole presented like only the Stabi S can. Playing back the same track on my Linn, by comparison, is like listening to the music diluted off it’s dynamics and micro detailing, while that stirring vocal emotion is more pronounced and musicality maintained. It’s like an example of weather striped down coat of automotive paint, still semi glossy, but with lustre and depth lost.”
JL Audio CR-1 Active Subwoofer Crossover Review

” Although I now had good linearity, I also tweaked the Sub/Sat Balance on the CR-1, with the expected results: I could easily tilt the response, in very fine increments, one way or the other. A setting of 2dB on the +Sat side of the dial tilted the balance toward the satellites and proved best in my setup — despite a depression in the Triangles’ midrange between 1 and 2kHz, they now had a touch more output there. I found this control intuitive in use, and greatly preferred it to using the level control on the subwoofer alone. ”

“The slight reflection of the space draws out the most delicate nuances: You can tell by the forgiving wooden timbre of the guitar and the deadened strings of the banjo that the instruments are a bit old and worn — you hear slight mistakes in the counter melody guitar, like the occasional buzz from a missed fret. ”

The sound through Layla was huge. Pure and simple. It was much bigger in dynamic scope and emotive impact than I could have ever imagined before hearing it. Listening to Our Love via Layla felt like… during that track I made a note in my iPhone”

“Clients can choose from two interchangeable DAC boards with different sonic characteristics, and the modular design should make it easy to apply upgrades in the future. The Conductor Virtuoso doesn’t use densely packed opamps, but a discrete circuitry which offers superior clarity and lower noise floor. The remote control is carved from solid piece of aluminium with no visible screws. The Conductor Virtuoso is now shipping with the ESS Sabre 9018 DAC at $1995. The version with Burr Brown PCM1793 DAC is priced at $1495.”

” My first impressions of the Mamushi were of a brighter, livelier, more forwardly-balanced sound, with increased bite and attack. In many ways the sound of Mamushi was better that the Townshend Isolda it replaced, but the SRA was also a mite less relaxed and comfortable. Clearly, more time was needed; the slow burn-in had begun!”

” If your electronics lack preamp outputs, no problem, use the Ultra 12’s stereo speaker-level inputs, and speaker-level pass-through outputs to hook up your front left and right speakers. If all of that sounds confusing, the Ultra X12 Owner’s Manual offers comprehensive setup tips and instructions; it’s one of the best-written manuals I’ve seen in ages.”
