New arrival and review: holbo mk2 Airbearing Turntable System

hobo mk2 reviewd by the-ear.net The new mk2 version of the highly decorated holbo Airbearing Turntable System arrived with a new review plus 5-star award.

Jason Kennedy of the-ear.net writes: "...the latest incarnation of the Holbo Airbearing Turntable, which added a clamp to the package, is very reasonably priced for what you get, which is a fully air powered design of the sort that very few make now or ever. It’s nicely put together and well built, all it really needs is a dust cover. The fact that it tracks the vinyl in the same way as the cutting head on a mastering lathe gives it a distinct advantage and one that the results live up to, I recommend you have a listen..."

Aurorasound VIDA Mk.II LCR phono stage
The Aurorasound VIDA Mk.II was reviewed by 10Audio.com.

Jerry Seigel wrote: "...the VIDA Mk.II sets a very high bar for sonic performance and is an even better value than the lower cost VIDA Prima. This is a very truthful, very neutral, high resolution and enjoyable phono preamplifier. The VIDA Mk.II is an excellent performer, offering more than a suggestion of the best phono preamps. Anyone shopping for a phono stage under about $20k might be surprised at this unit’s truly excellent and musically satisfying abilities. The VIDA Mk.II could possibly let you delete the word 'upgrade' from your thoughts..."

New arrival: Alto-Extremo LSP absorber feet

Alto-Extremo LSP-2 absorber feet
Alto-Extremo from Germany introduced the new LSP equipment feet, replacing the well-loved Lyd II.

The Lyd II absorbers were the top-line and best non-magnetic footers in the line-up. But there is always something to improve on. The LSP can absorb even more energy and you clearly can hear that. The LSP is available in two sizes. The LSP-1 ($539 for a set of three) and the larger LSP-2 ($619 for a set of three). The LSP absorber feet are ideal for equipment and loudspeakers.

New release: Synergistic Research Atmosphere SX Cable Series

Synergistic Research Atmosphere SX Cable SeriesAtmosphere SX replaces Atmosphere X, the longest-running and most successful cable loom in our 30-year history, with an uninterrupted four years in production. So needless to say, these new cables have some big shoes to fill. Atmosphere SX takes this loom very close to Galileo SX and sets a new performance standard for cables at this price point. And how did SR elevate an already iconic cable loom? With technology first developed for the flagship SRX cable series, which just won The Absolute Sound’s Cable Of The Year Award for 2021. And some brand new technology designed exclusively for Atmosphere SX.

New review: Synergistic Research Ethernet Switch UEF

Synergistic Research Ethernet Switch UEF


The first review of this amazing ethernet switch is online. 

Rick Becker of Enjoy the Music.com writes:
"... we switched [from the EtherREGEN switch] to the Synergistic Research Ethernet Switch UEF. The same song got a lot better. There was more air and a sense of the venue. The sibilants were brought under better (but not complete) control. The musicians were more specifically located, though not pinpointed. The timbre of instruments seemed more correct and there was more tonal color. The soloists became more real, as did the applause. Overall, the music was considerably more enjoyable, as well it should be for the price difference, clearly proving that better Ethernet switches make a significant difference..."

Synergistic Research PURPLE Quantum Fuse

BRAND NEW - IN STOCK - SHIPPING NOW.


The new Purple Fuse surpasses Synergistic Research's Orange Fuse with technology initially developed for the state-of-the-art SRX Series cables. It was not until SR finalized two new technologies, namely a three-stage long duration high voltage conditioning process and a brand new UEF compound featuring Graphene, that SR were able to beat the Orange Fuse significantly.
