PRODUCT REVIEWS |
|
| CD PLAYER BLIND LISTENING TEST | This month our panel comprises a top turntable designer, respected industry marketing man and a hi-fi writer. They review affordable CD spinners from Astin Trew, Cyrus, Micromega, Onix, Shanling and Yamaha. |
| PRIMA LUNA PROLOGUE PREMIUM | A valve amp for everyone? This month's lead review concentrates on one of the most user-friendly, system-friendly and spouse friendly tube integrated amplifiers we've tried in a long time. |
| ANTELOPE ZODIAC | An interestingly designed and unusually styled DAC from a mysterious manufacturer, the Zodiac has been winning new friends for a while now. We find it has real star quality. |
| JBL STUDIO 530 | Horn loaded loudspeakers are few and far between in hi-fi circles these days, so it was a nice surprise to find this new budget box. It duly went down a storm with our reviewer. |
| REGA RP6 | When are the Rega boys going to stop for a cup of tea? They seem to be coming out with a new product every week these days, and each seems as classy as the last. This new turntable is no exception. |
| EPOS ELAN 30 | A new pair of floorstanding loudspeakers sporting Epos' distinctive looks and impressive engineering skills, the Elans are unusually sensitive, making them great for lower powered amplifiers, we find. |
| RETRO: SONY WM-D6C | Of all the hi-fi world's great gadgets, there's none that can compare to this superb little portable cassette recorder. With analogue like this, who needs vinyl? |
