A small-footprint integrated amplifier with built-in Bluetooth, Paul Rigby roams around his house with it in tow Why the roaming? Because of that small footprint of 127 × 170 × 41mm plus 823g weight.

Mini Music Powerhouse $995.00 fiio.com/k17 Nestled in between my mighty Klipschorns, with ROON playing “Paranormial” by The Art of Noise, it amazes a few of my audiophile buddies that the source is the tiny FiiO K17 DAC.

Think about cables for a few minutes. Then think about having only a pair of power cords in your system.If you’re in a small space, less is usually more, so this is not a bad thing for you. The Dynaudio Focus 10 speakers only need a pair of power cords. You can link the two […]

Say, who says we have to hand out awards at the end of the year? We’ve always tried to be a little bit different so here goes. The Audiophile Apartment section of our magazine and site has always tried to concentrate on audio gear with a smaller form factor that doesn’t give anything up in […]

After spending an afternoon with staffer Earle’s Focal Sopra 3s, just before firing up their new Vestia no.1 at my place, the level of sonic excellence they bring to a $1,198 pair of speakers seems amazing. Listening to the same handful of tracks that I shuffled through at Earle’s house, not too much sonic memory […]

Portable music for those on-the-go By Rob Johnson I still remember my first stereo, a 1981 Sony Boom box, which served as a loyal companion from middle school through college. It finally failed after a decade of use. However, my nostalgia for the old-school portable form factor persists. So, I’m thrilled to see Teenage Engineering, […]

Class-D Perfection $8,995 -$9,495 (finish dependent) Javahifi.com Spoiler alert. The Java Integrated is a Class D amplifier.

The clouds dispersed as I headed toward Buffalo early on Saturday morning, and not a single cloud appeared for the entire weekend in Toronto. Saturday was cool, and Sunday was a bit warmer. Whether the weather was a factor or the tentative state of the economy (due mostly to political turmoil), attendance seemed lighter this […]

There is a lot of confusion regarding the cultural significance of vacuum tube audio in general and single-ended audio in particular. All of a sudden, we are confronted with a harvest of new stuff which apparently has a lot to do with very, very old stuff. Some mainstream journalists were quick to dismiss the whole […]

Let's be clear. Kharma Elegance dB7-S are not the largest or the most expensive high-end loudspeakers one can buy. They aren't even the largest or most expensive speakers in the line that they are a part of. But they are gorgeous high-end speakers that sound as good as they look, and obviously designed, built, and […]

Some of the most interesting activity in the hobby takes place outside the borders that commercial producers of contemporary equipment accept as their playing field. There are vintage gear enthusiasts, modifiers of old and new gear, and […]

Passions run high among music lovers. We vilify "bad" musicians (the ones we dislike), and we elevate marginally functional savants with a couple of two-minute singles and some album filler under their belts. When it comes to more unique and productive figures like Phil Spector, Jimi Hendrix, Wilhelm Furtwängler, John Cage, or [insert your own […]
