Analog vs. analog
December 25, 2016 Comments Off on Analog vs. analog
” Word of mouth – fortunately – works quite well and gossip and so-so practices of (ugly) people not saying the source and dubbing/mastering methods (even, in worst cases, declaring as 100% analog tapes their FLAC-sourced music onto reel to reel tape) widely circulates among the die-hard music and audio lovers.”

Okki Nokki Record Cleaner Review
December 25, 2016 Comments Off on Okki Nokki Record Cleaner Review
” For those vinyl fans who enjoy buying pre-owned records, or who have a lot of old records in their collection, it’s a good idea to purchase a second Okki Nokki vacuum arm. The wands are easy to swap, plus there’s no sense in rubbing old dirt into new vinyl. Save the “clean” arm for your new records, and keep the “dirtier” arm handy for the big jobs.”

FOCAL SOPRA NO.3 LOUDSPEAKER REVIEW
December 24, 2016 Comments Off on FOCAL SOPRA NO.3 LOUDSPEAKER REVIEW
“The biggest Sopra might not represent the same astonishing balance of virtues as the No.2 – or be quite the bargain that the No.2 most definitely is – but its ability to dig deeper into the recording, to get closer to the original event and bring that performance to life makes it significantly more impressive and engaging than its smaller brother, once you hang it on the end of a high-end system. I used it with both ARC and Berning amplifiers and never managed to outrun its capabilities. While the traditional, performance related numbers on the spec sheet might not explain this, perhaps the less obvious ones do

McIntosh C52 Preamplifier Review
December 24, 2016 Comments Off on McIntosh C52 Preamplifier Review
” This trio is not lacking in transparency, and this improvement is precisely where McIntosh has made tremendous strides in the last ten years. Disparate instruments and musical lines are exceptionally well rendered populating a broad soundstage. Perhaps not the widest I have had in my room, yet its way with depth is uncanny, particularly with analog is enticing.”

” Sonically, the Gold 300 tends towards a relatively “bottom-up” sound that is consistently balanced, rich, and full—and always musical. And its C-CAM ribbon tweeter boasts remarkable range. In addition to its stellar sonic capabilities, particularly throughout the midrange where its realism proved most striking, the Gold 300 is also quite a sexy-looking beast—even one that might meet with spousal/partner approval”

HIFIMAN INTRODUCES ULTIMATE HEADPHONE SYSTEM: SHANGRI-LA
December 23, 2016 Comments Off on HIFIMAN INTRODUCES ULTIMATE HEADPHONE SYSTEM: SHANGRI-LA
” According to HIFIMAN Founder and President, Dr. Fang Bian, “Creating the world’s best sounding headphone has been my lifelong dream. While HiFiMAN has made many good headphones, and people certainly enjoy them, none has ever fully satisfied that dream. So, I set upon this journey in the Shangri-La project using my PhD in Nanotechnology to create a special ultra-thin driver for an electrostatic design. We then designed a special amplifier using 300b tubes which creates a perfect match to the headphones and plays a critical role in the sound”
