New review: Wall Audio M50 PSET Mono Block Amplifers

Wall Audio M50 PSET Mono Block Amplifers

 
Alexander Aschenbrenner, HiFi-Stars, concluded:
"...what a debut! I had heard of these 'legendary' tube amplifiers from Wall Audio, I looked forward to them for testing all the more. And when they go back again, the memory of the splendor of their timbre and tonal-color will remain, in a way that I have rarely experienced it with even more powerful tube amps. In my opinion, the Wall Audio M50 PSET Mono Tube Amplifiers are sound-processing technology at its finest. For audiophile friends of high-efficiency loudspeakers, they are much more than simply a recommendation..."

The Cantano is one harmonious whole - drive and tone arm are the perfect duet.  Just wait and see what they can coax from your vinyl..."

Marigo CD Mat wins StereoTimes Most Wanted Component Award 2016

Marigo CD Mat - StereoTimes Most Wanted Component 2016 Award Dave Allison, The StereoTimes (Jan. 2017):
"...for those of us who still buy/play/rip physical media, this is a must try.  First, and perhaps most important, it’s as close to a universal CD/SACD/DVD/Blue Ray damper as you’ll find.  All previous mats I’ve used in my two very finicky transports have been chewed up and/or spit out.  The Clear Transformation is so thin and flexible that you’ll get no complaints from your player.  Sonically, it does away with digital artifacts while enhancing the richness and detail of your music.  At $199, it’s the least expensive digital accessory you’ll find that really makes a difference. Unconditional 30-day money-back guarantee from Marigo..."

Synergistic Research Galileo UEF Cable Series wins Product of the Year Award on TAS

Synergistic Research Galileo UEF Cable Series wins Product of the Year Award on TASJonathan Valin names Synergistic Research Galileo UEF The Absolute Sound's 2016 state-of-the-art cables of the year.
"...Ted Denney’s latest creations improve on the cumbersome ergonomics of his original Galileo multi-strand cables (which had to be plugged into and out of a multitude of boxes and actively biased via a plethora of wall-wart power supplies) by packaging most of that marvelous Synergistic technology into the cable itself. Better still, the Galileo UEFs significantly improve upon the truly stellar sonics of the original Galileos. Indeed, the UEFs are the best sounding wires Mr. Denney has yet devised, achieving a dead-center neutrality that is neither “bottom-up” nor “top-down” in tonal balance, without any sacrifice in natural warmth and timbre, resolution of detail, transient speed, dynamic power, imaging precision, or soundstage width, depth, and height. When you consider that the Galileo UEFs are also priced at one-third or one-quarter of what the original Galileos went for (and roughly one-tenth of what flagship cables and interconnects from certain other companies currently cost), you have a veritable bargain in ultra-high-end wire and a worthy TAS Interconnect and Speaker Cable of the Year Award winner..."

"...the Block 5 is a meticulously crafted anti-resonance device made by Langerton Configurations out of its production facility in Castle Trautskirchen in Germany.  They are atypical in that they are made from several different materials and are height adjustable.  After installing the Block 5s under my components, I immediately heard additional clarity, detail and speed with improved dynamic precision..."

Synergistic Research BLACK Quantum Fuse wins StereoTimes Most Wanted Component Award 2016

StereoTimes Most Wanted Component Award 2016StereoTimes Most Wanted Component Award 2016 - Synergistic Research BLACK Quantum Fuse
"...tiny fuses are a BIG hit! Who would ever think that two tiny audio amplifier fuses could have such a profound, positive result in what we hear from our audio system? That's exactly what happened when I switched from the two stock fuses that I had been using with my reference Behold stereo amplifier to Synergistic Research's new BLACK Quantum Fuses. Proprietor Alfred Kainz of Highend-Electronics located in California gave me superb service and sage advice regarding the best way to get maximum effect from these fuses. They are directional and require proper orientation to get the best results. In addition, the near super-conductor graphene is used which requires these fuses to have 25 to 200 hours of burn-in time for them to provide their optimum magic. The more the fuses burned in the more the soundstage increased, harmonics grew denser, and grip in the bass became tighter. All of these attributes allowed this listener to become much more emotionally involved with the music. Synergistic Research's new fuses seem to allow the amplifier to pass more important information along and perform at its very highest capacity. At $119.95 per fuse you owe it to yourself to give them a try. The results I experienced are a huge bang for the buck. Highly recommended!" (Clement Perry, Moreno Mitchell, Dan Secula and Ron Cook of The StereoTimes)

Aurorasound VIDA wins StereoTimes Most Wanted Component Award 2016

Aurorasound VIDA - Most Wanted Component Award 2016
Clement Perry of The StereoTimes wrote:

"...Key Kim's 2014 MW award and subsequent review (here) piqued my interest in this elegantly built phonostage from Japan. The Aurorasound VIDA incorporates state-of-the-art semiconductor technology (LCR-type network) and old-world craftsmanship to create a top performing phono amplifier. I concur wholeheartedly with Key's sonic descriptors: "...its black background is what sets the stage for its remarkable resolution, openness, and harmonic integrity..."
