Musical, but not overheated. Playing with breath, but without a hint of flashiness. Vivid, yet showing the most important sonic nuances well. Inconspicuo..

Modern Vintage Anyone expecting this speaker to sound woolly or overly romantic will be surprised. In our view, a truly good speaker should be well-balanced – and the KLH Model Five achieves exactly that.The first thing that stands out is the open, neutral midrange, which allows voices and instruments to shine with remarkable fidelity. The speaker also delivers plenty of fine detail and refinement. In the bass region, it offers tight, punchy, and well-defined performance. It takes a moment for the ear to adjust to the modern character of these “vintage-inspired” speakers – but once it clicks, ..

Hi-Fi News have published their fantastic review of LUMIN U2X presenting it with their coveted 'Outstanding Product' award Paul Miller also performs lab tests with U2X vs PC with various DACs (see PDF for graphs). During the review Andrew Everards states:Lumin’s U2X gave no doubts of its abilities. Music was simply more clear-cut when comparing it to lesser transport devices, the sound gaining substance and definition, and that all-important sense of ‘rightness’. Well, it’s certainly apparent that the levels of optimisation brought to bear here are something the digital deniers would have you ..

It’s not just about bass, brah.A demo of REL’s line array, six-pack CARBON SPECIAL BLACK LABEL subwoofer system to the uninitiated always begins with the same track – Ella Fitzgerald’s “Miss Otis Regrets.” The reason I picked this track is that it has no low bass to speak of. What, a subwoofer demo that doesn’t start with pounding electronica, or that way overplayed Chris Jones song that you’ve heard everywhere, way too many times? No, because Ella illustrates what a REL line array delivers that no other subwoofer does. It adds depth, texture, and low-frequency harmonics in a way that you’ve n..

What Is the Wharfedale EVO 5.4?The Wharfedale EVO 5.4 is a 3.5 way floorstanding speaker and the flagship of the EVO 5 range of speakers. Right from the off, this is a little different to our other recent Wharfedale reviews because the word ‘retro’ will appear here and only here to say that the EVO 5.4 isn’t. This isn’t a reborn device from decades ago but is instead a bang up to date modern speaker.It's also quite a lot of speaker. We’ll cover this in rather greater detail in the section to come but the EVO 5.4 has a surprising number of drivers and two of them would be unusual to encounter s..
