Dynaudio Focus 260 review: We take a closer look at this classic floorstanding speaker, its engineering, sound quality, measurements, and amplifier requirements
JL Audio, based in Miramar, FL, is without question one of the handful of top-tier subwoofer manufacturers in the world. Some of the best-sounding and most lavish systems I’ve heard had JL Audio subs in place, even with full-range loudspeakers. JL Audio is actually quite diversified, producing not only subs, but full systems and components…
We’d barely unpacked the kitchen when my wife and I decided the new house needed a proper christening — a housewarming with friends and family, boxes be damned. The problem was, most of my audio gear was still sitting in a storage unit across town, and a party without decent sound felt wrong. So I…

In my early years of stereo, there were few speaker brands that were coveted as much as Klipsch. At that time in my life, I felt they were some of the best speakers on the planet for playing rock ‘n’ roll. Every time I heard a pair, I knew I would eventually have to find…
