Backert Labs Rhumba Extreme 1.3 Preamplifier | REVIEW

July 29, 2022 Graig Neville Comments Off on Backert Labs Rhumba Extreme 1.3 Preamplifier | REVIEW

February 15, 2020 Marc Phillips Comments Off on Musical Surroundings, AMG, DS Audio, Rogue, Magnepan | FLAX 2020

At most high-end audio shows, I happen upon a turntable that strikes me as unusually beautiful–so much so that I almost want to own it based solely on its aesthetics. At FLAX 2020, I found […]

Saturday Highlights | FLAX 2020

February 9, 2020 Marc Phillips Comments Off on Saturday Highlights | FLAX 2020

November 12, 2019 Marc Phillips Comments Off on Tenacious Sound, Fyne Audio, Unison Research, MoFi, Rogue Audio, Audience | CAF 2019

I usually don’t do a lot of “after hours” coverage at high-end audio shows–cuz it’s Miller Time!–but my buddy Shayne Tenace of Tenacious Sound convinced me to stop by his room Saturday night and listen […]

Capital Audiofest 2016: Joseph goes Rogue with analog tape

August 10, 2016 Scot Hull Comments Off on Capital Audiofest 2016: Joseph goes Rogue with analog tape
