Not an MM nor an MC: the American reinterpretation of an European classic. More precisely a patent by the Danish B&O.

Complete, versatile and modern: one of the best preamp I have ever tested so far.

The ideal analogue source if you like to dedicate the right time and the right patience to the fine mechanical adjustments required to calibrate at best the system and get great performances.

Keep well in mind that when we set all these elements, our aim is the result of several targets, sometimes conflicting.

The test has strengthen my firm believes about the correct setting of the electrical parameters. Furthermore, the tone qualities and the versatility of the device have made me progress towards a classy playback.

A wide scene, well beyond the external limits of the loudspeakers. The live take is authentic, without overdubbing. The turntable appreciates, so the listener.

Envy is a bad emotion. This is why one of ReMusic’s editors in chief wants to say something about this amazing apparatus...

Only the bad designed tube devices are slow and sugary. The Estro Armonico Bellaluce phono preamp offers performances whose dynamic contrast and impulse velocity can’t be offered by the solid state.

Honestly, I can’t find on the market any other amplifier at the same price that performs better than the Kueyen, I really can’t.

Although Sugden's production has never dealt with supports dedicated to vinyl records, today it seems to aim also to this target.

With the revival of the vinyl records also the analog productions are multiplying and Germany boasts the greatest number of active manufacturers.

Turntable with constant resonant plinth, unipivot tonearm and MC High Output Phono Cartridge: a triptyque of lightness and sound density by Gold Note.

I have never thought to test an object that represents a solid bridge between the analogue and the digital world.

Noise reduction is a golden point of this machine. What immediately follows is an innate aptitude in taking out the details, even the more hidden, and the micro nuances, at the boundaries of the subsonic.

An unconventional tonearm indeed, Dr. Hedgebeth's Sonority Tonearm deserves a review, the first for a world premiere.

Tonearm and cartridge are made for each other. Let us find out how they can be matched under a scientific point of view.

Second Chapter of the Onix saga. A product that, in its look and essence, confirms the initial considerations in terms of elegance and good manufacture.

The phono preamplifier is the most important object in the analogue chain and, with a cost of little more than one thousand euro, the Bakoon EQA-11 has few competitors indeed.

The Simon Yorke S9 is perfect for all systems requiring a good dose of energy.

The Special Edition is an “improved” version of the Audiozen Mantra phono preamplifier that pursues the purity, the immediacy of the act, the absence of afterthoughts, but also the absolute concentration on what to do.

Leben follows an alternative path that aims to a target of musical research instead of looking for an exclusive circuital choice or a particular passive component. A research that is not standardized in a modern audiophile world where everything seems to perform in a uniform or at least alike way.

Most phono preamps, in comparison with the King, seem to be a bit phony, affected and artificial, somehow even electrified and noisy: maybe they can embellish, underline something, but finally they appear less natural. You realize that by reconnecting the King to your system.
