RMAF 2016: Classic Audio takes Purist approach to tubes and (UHA) analog tape

December 10, 2016

It’s a must-stop event. Assuming you can find it. But I bet you can. Just creep along the hallway, long after the show hours have closed for the day, until you hear extraordinarily clear and really loud tunes. That’s where Greg Beron of [...]

Mini-Review: UHA Phase 10 and Phase 1 Reel to Reel Tape

October 5, 2016

Once upon a time, I was young and innocent, brash and bold. I believed in the superiority of digital playback. Cables could have no impact on the sound quality of my system. You could never have too much power. “Once Upon a Time” was [...]

Best of 2015 and Product of the Year

December 30, 2015

2015 is over, much to my shock and chagrin. Honestly, I’m not quite sure how it happened. No. Seriously. I kinda feel like I’m Rick Grimes; I just woke up, everyone is gone, and WTF is the deal with all the freakin’ zombies?!? Oh. [...]

CAF 2014: United Home Audio and the master tape experience

August 1, 2014

CAF 2014: Sadurni Acoustics and the Big Red Horn of Wonder

August 1, 2014

Everyone loves an odd couple. Felix Unger and Oscar Madison. Julia Roberts and Lyle Lovett. Ed Norton and Courtney Love. Brooke Shields and The King of Pop. Horns and Class D amps. At first blush, none of this makes sense. Or at second blush, [...]

RMAF 2013: MBL and UHA

November 2, 2013

Getting a chance to write-up the MBL show presence is always a treat. Whether it’s completely superb, mind-blowingly good, or a hot mess of shrieking pain, MBL always, always, always leaves you with something to talk about. The MBL room is [...]
