Hafler Transnova 9500 power amplifier Review
August 23, 2016 Comments Off on Hafler Transnova 9500 power amplifier Review
” The Sonic Frontiers was sweet and open through the midrange, with plenty of detail, but there was a definition and immediacy to the sound of the Hafler which I definitely preferred. It did not sound etched or artificial, but very open and detailed. The Hafler also had a sock in the low end which the Sonic Frontiers could not match. The Sonic Frontiers did edge out the Hafler slightly in warmth, fullness, ambience retrieval, and overall depth—but not by much. And not enough on these loudspeakers, in my judgment, to make up for the Hafler’s superior grip and overall control.”

Kaleidescape’s high-end movie player business shuts down
August 22, 2016 Comments Off on Kaleidescape’s high-end movie player business shuts down
“Since Kaleidescape focused on the high-end market, its prices were too high (the 4K Strato movie player starts at $3,495 without a hard drive included, and when we interviewed its founder in 2005 systems started at $27,000) for any kind of mass market acceptance, and the CEO says the company exhausted its resources building the downloadable movie system. Now, it’s turning out the lights at the same time 4K, HDR and surround audio platforms are providing a new shiny thing for videophiles to chase.”

AUNE X7S REVIEW
August 22, 2016 Comments Off on AUNE X7S REVIEW
” I can’t imagine a situation where you’d need to raise the gain, but you can. I set the X7s to 0dB and stayed there. Because its input appears limited to low-to-medium voltages, gain serves only to boost initial signals before hitting IMD walls at extreme volumes. Whatever the case, the X7s’s output is more powerful than a number of 1000$+ amps.”

BOWERS & WILKINS CAPS DIAMOND SERIES 3 WITH NEW FLAGSHIP
August 22, 2016 Comments Off on BOWERS & WILKINS CAPS DIAMOND SERIES 3 WITH NEW FLAGSHIP
“Now, with a 155,000-square-foot factory that has been churning out speakers 24 hours a day, six days a week, that time has come. To launch the 800 D3 and, by the by, to celebrate its 50th anniversary, B&W recently invited a group of journalists to its U.S. headquarters just outside Boston. There I learned about—and heard—the new flagship, which will sell in the U.S. for $30,000 a pair.”

PARASOUND HALO 2.1 CHANNEL INTEGRATED AMPLIFIER REVIEW
August 21, 2016 Comments Off on PARASOUND HALO 2.1 CHANNEL INTEGRATED AMPLIFIER REVIEW
” Am I biased towards Parasound Halo products? Yes, unquestionably, proudly. I own several pieces. Halo gear is reliable, well made and superbly engineered and can’t be beat for value. You’d be hard-pressed to find anyone who doesn’t like the Halo Integrated – the sound, the features, and the pedigree. With an excellent DAC and an amplifier that has enough punch to handle any dynamics one would want. I’m scratching my head wondering what’s lacking.”
