ZMF ATRIUM - REVIEW

Wow! I’ve just come upon a headphone—the ZMF Atrium—that bridges three separate headphone technologies/worlds in a single form. And not in a slipshod fashion, given that it rises to TOTL status across all three worlds and at nearly half to one third the cost of the reigning TOTLs. Further, it does all of the above while being absolutely gorgeous.

BURSON AUDIO PLAYMATE 2 - REVIEW

The Playmate 2 is an unassuming desktop digital–to–analog converter (DAC) plus unbalanced headphone amp (HPA) from Aussie operational amplifier specialists Burson Audio.

QLN ONE SPEAKER - REVIEW

The Qln One monitor is a beautifully designed stand mount that offers elegance in its sonic presentation, and class in its physical appearance. It is clear the Qln One should be matched with well chosen amplification and cables, as this will pay dividends. The more transparent the source, the more the One will rise to the occasion.

MERASON FRÉROT DAC & POW1 - REVIEW

Despite my misgivings about outdated tech, there were no instances where I felt the frérot + pow1 was left wanting. The design path that was taken results in a refreshingly straightforward solution for digital audio playback.

BRICASTI DESIGN M1SE - REVIEW

The Bricasti Design M1SE has proven itself even beyond what the research had led me to believe. Perhaps it was the synergy conjured up by so many exceptional reference components at the time of its review. And, no doubt, the M1SE’s prodigious ability as a high fidelity DAC with a host of options—15(!)—so as to be tailored for most, if not all listening preferences, is but another star for its abilities.

GRIMM AUDIO MU1 - REVIEW

The Grimm Audio MU1 streamer is easily at the forefront of technological progress and stands as testament to the fact that high-fidelity musical reproduction is light years ahead of where it was just a few short years ago, let alone the days of my youth. But that is only half of the picture!
