Pylon Audio Jade 20 Speaker Review: Excellent Sound Quality

Pylon Audio Jade 20 Speaker: Retro comes in different forms. With one you want to live even longer than you have already lived, with the other you want to part with as quickly as possible and get yourself an older, better retro. A newer one is also possible – the main thing is that it…

Penaudio Karelietta Speakers Review | Audiophile-Grade Sound Tested

Companies can follow different strategies when expanding their product range. You can completely relaunch all the lines; you can release flagships over and over again that become faster, higher and stronger than the previous ones, or you can, already having a top model and something simpler, fill the gaps between them. At Penaudio, the flagship…

Leak Sandwich 250 Review: Vintage Audio Royalty Reborn

The days when high-quality sound enthusiasts could be truly surprised by retro acoustics are long gone. Today, nearly every brand with a legacy dating back to the last century is reviving classic models with varying degrees of authenticity and, it must be said, that they are doing an impressive job. As a result, many brands…

Musical Fidelity M6si Review

Musical Fidelity M6si Review: It feels like déjà vu: I first tested the Musical Fidelity M6si back in 2023. At the time, Anthony Michaelson, the then-owner of Musical Fidelity (who recently sold the company to Heinz Lichtenegger of Pro-Ject), personally delivered the amplifier with great pride. He confidently claimed that there wouldn’t be a better…

Klipsch Reference Premier RP-8000F II Review

Klipsch’s range of passive speakers isn’t huge, but it’s well thought out. In a modern design, they offer two main series: the basic Reference line and the more advanced Reference Premier line. There are also a couple of standout models, like the RF-7 and RC-64, which sit in a higher class. Beyond that, there’s the Heritage line, which features retro designs,…

Wharfedale Elysian 4 Review

The story behind the Elysian line is pretty straightforward. In recent years, Wharfedale has mostly focused on entry-level technology. They released several generations of the Diamond series (including an active version), tapped into the retro trend with the Linton and Denton models, and then introduced the EVO, which, while not overly expensive, was a step…

Denon D M41DAB Review

Denon D M41DAB Review: Denon didn’t need to release a new microsystem. The multiple Award winner, D-M40DAB, is as firmly established in our most popular reviews list as Adele’s recordings are in the world charts. Logically, there are two explanations for the release of the D-M41DAB. Either this is an unobtrusive Denon reminder of the…

Leak Stereo 230 Integrated Amplifier Review

Leak stereo 230: We felt the first breaths of fresh wind from the past when the famous British brand Leak, after a half-century hiatus, introduced a couple of new components—the Stereo 130 integrated amplifier and the CDT CD transport. This wasn’t just a nostalgic gesture; it felt like a revival as the designers skillfully blended…
