UK’s Chord Electronics, perhaps best known for their digital products, has pulled out all the stops for their new ULTIMA Integrated amplifier.

Perlisten is now 3-for-3 in my Favorite Speaker category, their S7t, R7t, and S5t hitting most of my likes and then some. For Munich High End 2023, the company will be unveiling the S7t Limited Edition Loudspeakers.

To my eyes, Cambridge makes sexy gear and their new EVO CD Transport fits that description to a T.

Meters. You had me at meters.

Part space station, part stealthy amplifier.

I still have my Rega P3 (2000) and it works as well today as it did when I bought it 17 years ago. To my mind, the P3 is a Genuine HiFi Bargain.

That’s right, a suite! that includes the new ARIES G2.2, VEGA G2.2, ARIES G3 and VEGA G3.

The new NAD M66 stuffs the kit and caboodle (BluOS streaming/DAC/MM Phono/Preamp/Dirac Live Room Correction/Dirac Live Bass Control) in a sleek touchscreen-endowed package.

Let’s face it: Bluesound hit it out of the proverbial hifi park with the original NODE DAC/Streamer that balanced price & performance rivaling peanut butter & jelly. OK, maybe that’s going too far. But some people still want a better NODE.

Goldmund teased the hifi world with their flagship Gaïa Active Speakers last year at Munich High End, but the Swiss company has recently shared, “Our majestic, elegant and powerful new Gaïa speakers have finally risen from the earth.” Totem-like (I said that).

Same great taste, less filling.
