    ICEpower Breaks the Ice on a New Era of Class D Amplification

    Most of the masters CDs were made from even then were 44.1kHz, and 44.1 is plenty. The Philips Crown AAA is still exceptional. I have quite a few 1st gen CDs that sound fantastic.

    ICEpower Breaks the Ice on a New Era of Class D Amplification

    I've always maintained it's not the amp per se, but the all the other devices in the chain: caps, PSUs, rails, etc. Early Class D did have a little more distortion, which I think gave everything played through them a harder edge, but again, not that significant in my opinion.

    I'd really like to see more outboard room-correction PnP component offerings that can take advantage of either an HDMI ARC channel or some other high-bandwidth digital interface. My favorite preamp brand has zero RC or even a basic EQ, so the only source with an advanced EQ I can currently enjoy...

    Makes me wonder what's going on over at Dirac these days. Everyone I knew there has left.

    Wilson Audio’s New Giant Lands Just Under $800K: Meet Autobiography

    I don't doubt it at all! Every year helping Andrew Jones show his TAD R1 speakers was a back-breaker! Wilsons are always Sisyphus-level!

    Shanling Takes Aim at Streamer Rivals with the New SM90

    I've been asking myself the same question. YoY growth (with the exception of last year of total subscriptions seems to be steadily falling, while overall subscriptions for streaming music sources are steadily climbing (more subscribers now than a decade ago, but fewer each year). I see a similar...

    Somewhere, a billionaire is toying with the idea of a complete surround system of these.
