Awards

Best Value of the Year Award | 2021

December 17, 2021 Marc Phillips 3

Deciding the Best Value of the Year Award for 2021 As we finish out our year-end award season, I noticed that many of the same products that were considered for Product of the Year for […]

TotalDAC d100 Loudspeakers | REVIEW

August 20, 2021 Marc Phillips 4

In all my years of being an audiophile, of being a high-end audio importer and distributor, of being an audio reviewer, I had never seen a pair of loudspeakers get split up in a shipment […]

Sonus faber Maxima Amator Loudspeakers | REVIEW

March 28, 2021 Marc Phillips 3

The Sonus faber Maxima Amator loudspeakers (website) have taken me by surprise. I was so zeroed-in and focused on the idea of the perfect two-way bookshelf monitor, a longtime passion of mine, and now I […]

Volti Audio introduces Lightning Razz, featuring a Fractal Burned Finish

March 18, 2021 Editorial Staff Comments Off on Volti Audio introduces Lightning Razz, featuring a Fractal Burned Finish

Right on the heels of our two-part review of the Razz loudspeaker, Volti Audio founder and owner Greg Roberts releases a new wood finish unlike anything we’ve ever seen in high-end audio. The process is […]

Volti Audio Razz Loudspeakers, Part Two | REVIEW

February 26, 2021 Graig Neville Comments Off on Volti Audio Razz Loudspeakers, Part Two | REVIEW

When PTA Editor-in-Chief Marc Phillips asked me to co-review the Volti Audio Razz loudspeakers, of course I said I was interested. This would be my first official review for Part-Time Audiophile, and I’d be fulfilling […]

LSA T-3 Turntable | REVIEW

February 21, 2021 Marc Phillips 4

  Maybe you’ve started to notice a certain theme in many of my reviews, so it won’t surprise you to hear that the LSA T-3 turntable (website) and I also go way back. We’re talking […]

LFD NCSE Mk. 3 Integrated Amplifier | REVIEW

February 19, 2021 Marc Phillips 2

The LFD NCSE Mk. 3 integrated amplifier (website) has no remote control. Nor does it have XLR inputs or outputs, a home theater bypass switch, 12V trigger operation, a built-in DAC, a wide range of […]

The Vinyl Anachronist

Bill DiCosimo and Edgar Pagan, Con Moto | The Vinyl Anachronist

February 11, 2021 Marc Phillips Comments Off on Bill DiCosimo and Edgar Pagan, Con Moto | The Vinyl Anachronist

Within a few seconds of putting Bill DiCosimo and Edgar Pagan‘s new CD into my player, I realized I was hearing something that I feel like I haven’t heard in a while–a beat. Jazz is […]

Marten Oscar Duo Loudspeakers | REVIEW

February 7, 2021 Marc Phillips 3

  The first time I heard the Marten Oscar Duo (website), right out of the box, one word came to mind. That word was fast. Dave McNair, currently reviewing the much larger Marten Oscar Trio, […]

Volti Audio Razz Loudspeakers, Part One | REVIEW

February 5, 2021 Marc Phillips 10

A funny thing happened on the way to finding the perfect 2-way bookshelf monitor. When I first had the opportunity to review the new Volti Audio Razz (announcement, website), I imagined this 3-way floorstanding horn […]

Jeff Rowland Design Group Continuum S2 Integrated Amplifier | REVIEW

January 22, 2021 Marc Phillips 5

Four hundred watts per channel. The Jeff Rowland Design Group Continuum S2 (website) has four hundred watts per channel. In over forty years of being an audiophile, including the twenty-plus years I’ve been reviewing hi-fi […]

Cables & Power

Core Power Technologies A/V Diamond Valiant, Defiant and Linx Cables | REVIEW

January 17, 2021 Marc Phillips 1

Who is Core Power Technologies (website), anyway? For that matter, who is Living Sounds Audio (LSA) and the LSA Group? A couple of years ago, I’d never heard of any of them. Now, I’m slowly […]

The Vinyl Anachronist

Todd Mosby, Aerial Views | The Vinyl Anachronist

January 6, 2021 Marc Phillips Comments Off on Todd Mosby, Aerial Views | The Vinyl Anachronist

I wasn’t quite sure at first about guitarist Todd Mosby (website) and his new album, Aerial Views. It starts off very mellow, almost an equal blend of soft Pat Metheny and the better-than-average Windham Hill […]

Components

Rotel A14 Integrated Amplifier | REVIEW

November 27, 2020 Marc Phillips 3

  Why in the world would I want to review the Rotel A14 (website), an integrated amplifier with DAC and phono stage and headphone amplifier all sorts of features for just $1500? What is this, […]

The Vinyl Anachronist

Ikue Mori, Satoko Fujii and Natsuki Tamura, Prickly Pear Cactus | The Vinyl Anachronist

November 19, 2020 Marc Phillips 1

I’ve reviewed plenty of experimental albums, both jazz and electronica, that sound like little more than a collection of recorded noises. The real trick in evaluating such recordings is to find the weave of music […]

The Vinyl Anachronist

Julian Gerstin, Littoral Zone | The Vinyl Anachronist

October 26, 2020 Marc Phillips Comments Off on Julian Gerstin, Littoral Zone | The Vinyl Anachronist

I almost started off with telling you how much I love pure percussion records, but I think I’ve done that recently–perhaps it was the last time I reviewed an album from Julian Gerstin. Instead, I’d […]
