GOLD NOTE DS-10 D/A processor

I felt like I’d just been offered a choice of 31 flavors of Baskin-Robbins ice cream topped with up to 57 varieties of Heinz ketchup, 57 condiments, and 47 brands of coddled cream. My head began to spin, my stomach churned, and my mouth grew very dry as I read that Gold Note’s DS-10 ($2995) was a “chameleon DAC” with 192 setup options that enable it to “completely blend in with different music genres, giving the listener the opportunity to adapt the behavior of the unit to the music playing, to one’s stereo system and, most of all, to the listener’s taste.”

TECHNICS SL-1000R Turntable Superlative Accomplishment

One company that has returned to the fray, after several decades of quiescence on the vinyl front, is Technics, the Japanese firm that was once an omnipresent force in turntable design and widely viewed as the progenitor of direct drive. Now, under the stewardship of its parent company Panasonic, it’s once more offering a number of turntables at different price points, with the direct-drive SL-1000R at the top of its lineup, what Technics calls its “Reference Class.” The ’table features a separate motor controller, and can be customized to accept up to three tonearms.

AESTHETIX ATLAS ECLIPSE Power Amplifier – Greek Myth or Audio Powerhouse?

Aesthetix has developed an enviable reputation as a manufacturer of elite components at down-to-earth prices. The company’s earliest products, the all-tube Io phonostage and Callisto linestage, have long set the stage for what is possible in modern all-tube designs. As the mainstay of Aesthetix’ top “Jupiter” line, these products have received updates and modifications through the years and have developed a loyal following among audiophiles who value the sound of all-tube electronics. In their latest “Eclipse” finery, the Io and Callisto are major players at the highest echelon of the audio world. The prices have gone up, of course, but Aesthetix founder and designer Jim White still prices these units below the cost of most of the direct competition.VEČ…

The Making of Tzero MKIII

Not all RELs are large, expensive and go down to stygian depths. Some are small, affordable and intended to supply similar enjoyment—on a scaled-down basis to-be-sure–to those who live in smaller spaces and simply have neither the space, nor perhaps the funds, to pursue high performance full range sound reproduction in a grander sense. Live your life in a flat, a small apartment? Get your music from your computer? iTunes, Spotify, Qobuz or Tidal and access it via your iPhone? Congrats, you’re normal and one of the great majority to whom music is necessary, like eating, and for whom it forms the background soundtrack to your life. We’ve got you covered with our new Tzero MKIII.VEČ…

Making of the (Newest) Legend: REL 212/SX

212 / SX presega v vsaki pomembni kategoriji originalni model 212, ki smo ga predstavil pred petimi leti in je zaslužil 3 prestiže nagrade za “najvplivnejše izdelke preteklih 20 let”. 212 / SX prinaša večjo moč in udarec, več hitrosti ter sodobnejši dizajn.

Ko smo se odločili za izdelavo prvotnega 212 / SE, smo začutili, da prevzemamo nadzorovano tveganje. Pol desetletja in nekaj tisoč nizkotoncev pozneje vemo, da imeli prav in si upali slediti svojim instinktom. …
