New review: VALVET A4e reviewed by The StereoTimes

By Alfred Kainz | 10 June, 2019 | Read more

Greg Voth of The StereoTimes concluded:
"...even with a solid state preamp in the mix, the music felt very relaxed, rich and sounded, in a word, lush. Each note was delivered with panache over the brute force of other power amplifiers and in a way that subtly coaxes and charms the listener to continue their musical journey rather than submit to over-arched and brutally dynamic intensity. These Valvet a4e’s are the real deal… get where I’m coming from?"

New arrival: Valvet E2se Class-A, single-ended, solid-state amplifier

By Alfred Kainz | 31 May, 2019 | Read more

BRAND NEW - JUST ARRIVED. A new version of the well-loved german handmade Valvet E2 amplifier is in and warming up in the showroom - the E2se. Even though from the outside it looks just like the original E2 - the typical Valvet understatement, the inside is much improved. The E2se is a rare breed - a Class-A, single-ended, solid-state, dual-mono amp using only one single transistor per channel in the output stage. The E2se delivers 12 watts into 8 Ohm (20W/4Ohm) but these watts are from the finest. MSRP is $3990.

New review: Synergistic Research Galileo SX tested by SoundStage Ultra

Synergistic Research Galileo SX reviewed on Ultra Systems

Howard Kneller of SoundStage Ultra wrote:
"...the Galileo SXes may well set a new high bar for audio-cable performance. Further, while at first glance their geometries are more similar to than different from those of the Galileo UEFs, the SXes considerably outperformed the older cables... I’m smitten with the sound of Synergistic Research’s Galileo SXes: breathtakingly lively, exciting, and dynamic, yet gorgeously rich, musical, and accurately full-bodied. They are definite contenders for the designation 'the state of the art'..."

New review: Marigo Audio Labs AIDA CD-mat tested by The StereoTimes

By Alfred Kainz | 21 March, 2019 | Read more

Dave Allison of The StereoTimes wrote:
"...increase in detail also solidified the stereo image in every dimension. It was as if the individual voices and instruments acquired more palpable boundaries while remaining part of the whole performance. The interplay between instruments, especially in symphonic material, was much easier to follow, and more enjoyable! Ron Hedrich’s four years of developing the Aida has yielded quite a set of accomplishments for a 'humble' CD mat! But if you play/burn any digital audio or video discs, I think you’ll appreciate what the Aida does..."
