The brand new Wharfedale Dovedale loudspeakers remind me some of my favorite BBC speaker designs, those big-box affairs such as the Spendor SP100s, which I owned for many years, the Harbeth 40s, which I’ve loved […]
It’s finally happened. After years of waiting, of endless static displays, of reading other people’s reviews, of learning that the boss has a pair for his desktop system, I’ve finally sat down and spent some […]
The Just Audio room was mixed in with the multiple MoFi Distribution rooms on the sixth floor at the 2023 Florida Audio Expo, so I thought this was another MoFi room due to the presence […]
