Valvet E3 review in the Fidelity magazine #56

The first review for the brand new Valvet E3 is in, and it's a good one!

Udo Pipper of the Fidelity magazine #56 wrote:

"...the newly remodeled Valvet E3 presents itself forceful and unrivaled musical, in spite of seemingly low-valued specifications. One of the best amplifiers that we ever had in our rack... for me, these components [Valvet E3 & soulshine 2 preamp] are not only a surprising experience in lifelike music reproduction, but, from now on, a listening reference for the future. What is yet to come?"

Synergistic Research Galileo SX Ground Block

"...with the Galileo SX Ground Block in place, I stopped critiquing the sound and was able to just focus on the music. As a typical audiophile, this is always a challenge. Bottom line.

New review: Lyric Audio PS10 MM/MC phono stage tested by Thenewold.co

By Alfred Kainz | 29 January, 2021 | Read more

A new review has just been released on Theoldnew.co.

Darren Henley writes: "...the PS10 handles macro dynamic with a strong, confident grip while remaining open and uncompressed... Everything I played, from Melvin's 1994 release, Stoner Witch from Nielson's Symphony No.4 was presented with a large, especially deep and solid image. The PS10 strikes a very fine balance between earth and air - what I mean is while the image is large and stable, it doesn't sacrifice gravity or force.
