Loudspeakers

Harbeth C7ES-3 XD Loudspeakers | REVIEW

March 6, 2022 Marc Phillips 1

Co-hosting all these Brit-fi podcasts with Brian Hunter on The Occasional Podcast has certainly whetted my appetite for BBC monitors. Lately we’ve been fixating primarily on the LS3/5a, but I can’t tell you how excited […]

Loudspeakers

Fern & Roby Raven Loudspeakers | REVIEW

October 19, 2019 Marc Phillips Comments Off on Fern & Roby Raven Loudspeakers | REVIEW

My adventures with the Fern & Roby Raven loudspeakers started last year, right before I left my house in Western New York to drive down to the Capital Audiofest in the suburbs of Washington DC. […]

THE Show 2019

Common Wave Hi-Fi, Harbeth | T.H.E. Show 2019

June 26, 2019 Marc Phillips 1

I last lived in Southern California in 2007, and it seems like there are so many new high-end audio stores that have cropped up in the LA area since I left–which is good news for […]

Munich 2019

SoundSmith | High End 2019

May 20, 2019 Marc Phillips 4

It must be hard to be Peter Ledermann of SoundSmith. When Scot Hull and I approached his booth at High-End 2019, he was getting ready to leave because he had to give a talk at […]

AXPONA 2019

Marc’s Best of Show | AXPONA 2019

May 8, 2019 Marc Phillips 2

AXPONA 2019 was a high-end audio show that had a little more meaning for me than usual, probably since the last show I did as an exhibitor was AXPONA 2016. I remember enjoying the 630 […]

AXPONA 2019

Bricasti and Tidal | AXPONA 2019

May 3, 2019 Marc Phillips 1

I covered Bricasti and Tidal last fall during the Capital Audiofest, so this was another case of walking into a room at AXPONA 2019 and thinking that I knew what was going to happen and […]

AXPONA 2019

AudioQuest, Vandersteen, Channel D | AXPONA 2019

May 1, 2019 Marc Phillips Comments Off on AudioQuest, Vandersteen, Channel D | AXPONA 2019

I just checked out the AudioQuest and Vandersteen room back at Rocky Mountain Audio Fest last fall, so walking into this room at AXPONA 2019 felt like it might be more of the same–an excellent […]

AXPONA 2019

Spatial Audio, Linear Tube Audio, ANTICABLES | AXPONA 2019

April 26, 2019 Marc Phillips 1

Ever since I heard Spatial Audio, Linear Tube Audio and ANTICABLES at the Capital Audiofest last fall, I’ve had a bit of a crush. The combination of these open baffle speakers with the ZOTL amplifier circuitry […]

AXPONA 2019

BorderPatrol, Volti Audio, Triode Wire Labs | AXPONA 2019

April 21, 2019 Marc Phillips Comments Off on BorderPatrol, Volti Audio, Triode Wire Labs | AXPONA 2019

I believe this is the third time I’ve reported on the combination of BorderPatrol, Volti Audio and Triode Wire Labs in the last few months, so you’d think I’d have a handle on the sound […]

CAF 2018

CAF 2018: Marc’s Wrap-Up

December 22, 2018 Marc Phillips 4

The last couple of months have been a blur. Just days after I joined the team at Part-Time Audiophile and The Occasional, I was off to Denver to cover the 2018 Rocky Mountain Audio Fest. […]
