” Quite recently I enjoyed a lot reviewing relatively inexpensive, amazingly dynamic shelf-speakers by Canadian Bryston. I didn’t think then that so soon after I would have chance to listen to another, even smaller speakers, offering even more impressive performance. In this case it is not about dynamics and fun that make performance so enjoyable, but, as one would expect from much more expensive speakers, about sophistication and coherence of the presentation.”

“Perhaps the most striking statement the Continuum S2 makes pertains to the overall musicality of Class D amplifiers. Just a few years ago, the argument asserted in these very pages was that Class D wasn’t ready for prime time—the primary gripe being that it lacked extension, air, and transparency on top. True enough then, but that argument has been firmly laid to rest by a component like the Continuum S2. ”

“The Takumi cable is based on the principal and balance, removing imperfections and using the highest grade materials. Featuring a mix of gold-silver, silver-alloy and copper the company the cable is the subjected to a burnin process called HQT 100 which is said to greatly reduce the time to burn the cable from new (again subjective). Leading out from the jack point (of which I chose a chrome 3.5mm Oyaide unit) there is a stunning flat Octo braided cable”

” I was able to appreciate the nuances of each instrument more easily than I’m accustomed to. Plucks of each string of Glenn Frey’s acoustic guitar were conveyed with truthful singularity, possessing precise leading-edge definition without sounding analytical. Even more alluring was the tightrope the 760A consistently walked between offering snappy transients and focused images while retaining the natural golden hue of the acoustic’s strings.”

“I listened to an old standby: The title track of Norah Jones’s Come Away With Me (24-bit/192kHz FLAC, Blue Note). Like that cognitively dissonant piano, Jones’s voice sounded spookily clean and natural. Had she been actually standing there, singing right into my ear, I’m not sure I’d have heard any more detail or air or depth. But for the absence of her breath tickling my ear hairs, I could have sworn she was right next to me”

“Very impressive was the piano on “Decade and One”, with the notes being so easy to hear due to them having plenty of air around them. Another thing I noticed was the percussive action of the hammers striking the strings as you could hear each string as it starts to vibrate. ”

“That’s quite the trick. We obtain 15—almost 17 watts—from a single-ended KT88 in class A1 but with a triode transfer function due to how the series-parallel connected six amplifiers operate. The taps in our transformers are different, the way they connect to the tubes is different. There is a screen tap which used to be called ultralinear and another winding for the cathode for a type of local feedback. A Stockham paper from the 50s showed how a triode can be modeled as a pentode with feedback by removing the grids. When you take the grids out of a pentode, you get inherent feedback between plate and cathode.”
