AURALiC Polaris – REVIEW
April 19, 2017 Comments Off on AURALiC Polaris – REVIEW
“For US$4K, it might be possible (nay, easy) to compile a separates rig that outshines the Polaris. To point this out is to miss the point of AURALiC’s finest offering to date. It also ignores the time suck and cash drain of going mix n match. Like Devialet and Peachtree – and the increasing number of super-integrateds coming to market – their intent is simplicity without audible sacrifice.”

Monitor Audio Platinum II PL300 II Loudspeakers $14,495 Review
April 18, 2017 Comments Off on Monitor Audio Platinum II PL300 II Loudspeakers $14,495 Review
” Still, it was all too easy to forget that the Monitor PL300 II costs only $14,495/pair — it performed at levels achieved by speakers costing far more. The PL300 II’s subtly “polite” sound actually enhanced their reproduction of Chantal Kreviazuk’s In This Life, erasing any hint of aggression in her voice at loud volumes — I preferred listening to this album more through the Monitors than through the Rockports. There was also an appreciable difference in how the two speakers reproduced bass notes. The Monitors consistently provided more slam, kick, and energy in the lower octaves, particularly at lower volumes. T”

VPI Industries Prime Turntable – Review
April 18, 2017 Comments Off on VPI Industries Prime Turntable – Review
“The benefit this awarded to the sound was immediate: A tightening up of the sound of instruments (and voice) and a tighter arrangement of the placement of instruments within the imaging. It was like someone had carefully listened to and studied the position of instruments in the soundstage, slightly modified their positioning to optimize–and then nailed each down on its perch to stay put!”

“The 230HAD occupies a very competitive space. Several highly-accomplished manufacturers including Questyle and Ayre have exceptional offerings in this price category.

RESONATE ROCK JAW AUDIO $159 REVIEW
April 17, 2017 Comments Off on RESONATE ROCK JAW AUDIO $159 REVIEW
“This is a very musical, fun sounding IEM that offers a variety of tonal presentation types. Hard pressed to say any other $150ish IEM’s offer similar. In fact, I know of none. The build quality is excellent, the cable is fantastic and the set is very laid back and easy on the ear, deep reaching in bass depending on what filter setup used and lastly responds nicely to EQ.”
