BOENICKE AUDIO W11 SPEAKERS - REVIEW
The Boenicke W11SE speakers are very special products. Sven Boenicke is clearly an accomplished and thoughtful man in the way he conducts his business and in the way his philosophies inform his designs. The W11SE was one of the most accurate, distortion-free speakers we have had in our systems to date.
ALLNIC L-10,000 SIGNATURE EDITION - REVIEW
For those in the market for a state-of-the-art linestage, we strongly recommend, if not insist, that it would be prudent to take a listen to the Allnic L-10,000 Signature Edition It will open an astute audiophile’s ears to what is capable at the highest levels of tube preamplification.
CANOR DAC 2.10 - REVIEW
The Slovakian brand Canor has made its presence known over the past several years, and the DAC 2.10 is a world-class source component, regardless of topology. But the fact that Canor pays fanatical attention to detail, even designing their own boards, and has found a way to incorporate a flawless tube output stage with their digital design, makes the DAC 2.10 a unique and highly desirable digital source component.
ALLNIC M-3000 Mk 3 MONO BLOCK AMPLIFIER - REVIEW
The Allnic M-3000 Mk 3 KT170-based mono amps are simply everything an audiophile could hope for from tube-based power amplifiers The sonic palette is complete in every way and checks every conceivable box. There is power to spare, reliable and hassle-free performance, and most importantly, breathtaking musical performance. The sound is also customizable via tube rolling, and on the fly pentode or triode mode switching.
ALLNIC H-7000 PHONO-PREAMPLIFIER - REVIEW
There is no other way to put it, the Allnic H-7000 tube based Phono Stage is the most impressive analogue component I have encountered. It is also the most expensive, and appropriately so considering the obsessive attention to detail, materials, and build. It will be hard to see it go, but even so, we enjoyed listening to vinyl as we never have before. Very highly recommended.
OBRAVO VENUS SIGNATURE IEM - REVIEW
The oBravo Venus Signature are simply superb personal audio transducers—exceptional, actually. At close to the $1,000 price point, they are very much front runners in that market. No audio product is perfect, but the Venus Signature made it difficult to find any significant flaws in its build, appearance or sound. If we had to live with just one IEM model, the Venus Signature would likely be it.
MEZE AUDIO ADVAR IEM - REVIEW
The Meze Advars are mini works of art and a captivating display of contemporary industrial design. In the end, we found the sonics to be smooth, rich, detailed, and very engaging. We loved the feel of these IEMs in our hands and in our ears. For us, the Advar is worth the asking price, and well suited for numerous applications. In our estimation, Meze's design is a success. Advar distinguishes itself from its rivals with a wonderful high-end audio experience.
