The M-03 & KS-H4 Electrostatic System By Kingsound
It has been just over 3 years since we last reviewed the "process" of electrostatic product development from Hong Kong manufacturers, Kingsound Audio. At the time they had just moved past the initial "prototype...
The Soloist SL MK2 By Burson Audio
Kind of hard to say no to Burson, isn't it? At this point, it seems like Burson is a never-fail company that can churn out wins in their sleep. There have been far too many stellar product releases in the ampli...
The Savanna By Noble Audio
Nearly 18 months ago I reviewed the Noble 4 Classic and felt it was an excellent tool in a reviewer's arsenal of reference earphones or IEMs. It's pretty neutral and very transparent with a little treble energy...

The last two Cayin DAP's we reviewed, the N6 and the N5 were solid traditional style non-touch based media players that, initially with the N6, went straight for the audiophile market and then, subsequently, wi...
The M5 DAP By Shanling
ESS Sabre was THE DAC of 2014-2015 for quite a lot of audiophile gear makers from DAPs to desktops. However, this chip series can be a nightmare to work with and if not properly filtered and implemented the res...

The SINE By Audeze
I've shaken my fist at the audio community for the past 8 or so years, but that prolonged whining got me nowhere. It seemed like no matter how hard I cried, audio designers and the HiFi community have both ins...

If you are from Head-fi or a general audio enthusiast you cannot have passed a web page by without hearing the name Noble. Incredibly this is the first time I have spent any time with a Noble earphone of any ki...

Noise Cancelling with the Sony MDR-1RNC
I am kind of baffled by what Sony has been up to lately, cranking out so many good headphones really makes me feel almost uncomfortable. I am not used to reviewing so many products from one company in a row th...
The Micro Portable Amp By Portaphile
Ceasar over at Portaphile has been up to no good! A while back, I'd heard his original 627 portable amp, astounded by the price to performance I'd naturally wanted to own it and review it. Since then, Porta...
The HM-650 DAP by Hifiman
No matter the area, Hifiman always has pushed the envelope. For example, their first DAP was the monstrosity known as the HM-801. At 9 ounces and an entire inch thick, it, put bluntly, was a brick. It was a won...
The HE400i and HE560 Planars by Hifiman
People keep asking me what my favorite headphone is, or what one I would keep if I had only one and for the last 3 years I have said to them it is the Hifiman HE6. The HE6 and I have been through a lot of growi...

The DX90 by iBasso
The audiophile DAP race continues unabated with the release of the next step up from the DX50 by iBasso with the $419 DX90 DAP. It is almost as if iBasso and FiiO are in this budget busting DAP war bubble right...
