MARTINLOGAN IMPRESSION ESL 11A ELECTROSTATIC SPEAKERS REVIEW
December 7, 2016 Comments Off on MARTINLOGAN IMPRESSION ESL 11A ELECTROSTATIC SPEAKERS REVIEW
” This is deliberate. The ESL 11As are so well balanced that I can find no specific acoustic weaknesses. Few speakers that I’ve ever heard are so balanced. And in a word, I’d say that “balance” defines them just fine. You want to know what you get for ten-thousand dollars that lesser speakers don’t have? That’s it – balance. These speakers are somewhere between very good and great at every level. Less-expensive speakers can rival or even surpass the MartinLogans in one category, maybe even two – but nothing I’ve heard for less can match them in every aspect.”

Veracity Mystra Review
December 7, 2016 Comments Off on Veracity Mystra Review
“The presentation of Mystra is of serious scale but also leaves you up close and personal to the performance. The latter trait may be to do 5777“ how this DAC has completely unsuppressed dynamics, with this letting rip so that the latter components in the audio chain have a lively and musical canvas to work on. That being said I am definitely aware of some of the attributes this DAC has. What it does let seep through to the rest of the audio chain are all starting points for awesome sound.”

Audiodesk PRO Ultrasonic Vinyl Cleaner Review
December 7, 2016 Comments Off on Audiodesk PRO Ultrasonic Vinyl Cleaner Review
“The takeaway from all this is that any serious record owner who can afford to do so should purchase an ultrasonic vinyl cleaner for use as his primary cleaning tool, always followed by a rinse with “pure” water. In some instances, it may be necessary to resort to the use of an enzymatic cleaner or even an alcohol based cleaner as an adjunct to the ultrasonic cleaner. Almost any competent cleaner (vacuum or ultrasonic) will lessen surface noise. An ultrasonic cleaner used in conjunction with a “pure” water rinse will take the sound to a new and somewhat surprising level of clarity. ”

WESTONE ES60 CUSTOM-FIT IN EAR MONITOR $1,299 Review
December 7, 2016 Comments Off on WESTONE ES60 CUSTOM-FIT IN EAR MONITOR $1,299 Review
” The only small reservation I might express is that the ES‑60’s typically do not seem to convey quite as much upper midrange/treble ‘air’ and transient information as some other accuracy minded CIEMs I have heard (for example, the Noble Audio Savant or the Ultimate Ears Pro Reference Remastered models). This characteristic is minor enough that it certainly doesn’t rise to the level of perceived high-frequency roll off, but it does mean that, through the Westones, some recordings can sound slightly less transparent, airy, and spacious than one might expect”

Sennheiser HD 800 S Review
December 5, 2016 Comments Off on Sennheiser HD 800 S Review
“If there’s a system that could truly extract the limitations of a headphone, this Chord DAVE setup would be it. So what do you get more from a higher-end headphone such as the Hifiman HE-1000 and Abyss? Depth. The HD800S sounds quite flat in comparison to the other two headphones. The improved layering and deeper soundstage of the other two is undeniably apparent.”

QUESTYLE GOLDEN REFERENCE DAC/PREAMP/HEADPHONE AMP SYSTEM – REVIEW
December 5, 2016 Comments Off on QUESTYLE GOLDEN REFERENCE DAC/PREAMP/HEADPHONE AMP SYSTEM – REVIEW
“The best thing about this Questyle quartet is they all go after the same goal of neutrality and accuracy; the performance of one goes with and builds upon the performance of the others, and there’s a sense that is you start with any one device, the others will logically follow. If you have a pair of headphones good enough to warrant a CMA800R, they are good enough to benefit from balanced drive, in which case two CMA800Rs are the logical choice, and that means a CMA800P is the logical choice in driving them, and the DAC is the obvious model to deliver the best signal to that trio. Or, you start with the DAC for its sheer fidelity, then add a CMA800R and go down that route.”

FLC 8S REVIEW

“My bass was set up to go well with a wide range of genres and it did so with real speed, texture and some level of appreciated sub bass when it was required. I could easily turn these into a dedicated set of basshead IEM’s if I wanted and they would handle all my EDM and Dubstep needs as good as any other on our list of the 12 best bass earbuds”
