STAX SR-X9000 - REVIEW
The new and undisputed flagship of the STAX earspeaker-headphone line is the STAX SR-X9000 electrostatic headphone! And after listening these past weeks, this was perhaps one of the easiest calls that I have made to date. … Did I mention how extraordinarily immersive the STAX SR-X9000 is? Well, you will experience the sounds, the emotion, the ambiance, the ease, and even the ‘sights.’
NORDOST SORT KONE - REVIEW
I can wholeheartedly guarantee that if one’s hearing is intact it will be quite easy to get the differences with and without the Nordost AC SORT KONES, whether under a single component or across an entire system. In this respect they are impossible to remove.
STAX SRM-500T - REVIEW
No doubt, the SRM-500T was STAX’s way of saying this was constructed for those new to electrostatics, for whom it may serve as a beacon to a world that is immensely charming, musical, and communicates as if a breath of fresh air. There will also be those, who see the STAX SRM-500T as but the point of entry to this world. Their sights will, no doubt, lead them farther into this incredibly beautiful, transparent, and detail rich electrostatic world.
SIVGA PLANAR II - REVIEW
Though the SIVGA PII will not reach to the stygian depths of the Holy-Bass-Head-Grail, nor scale to the treble heights of Mt. Olympus and beyond, in that area, that space between the two, it will engage, entertain, communicate, and beautifully work its magic to convincingly state, “that my price point does not describe my level of musical skill, nor ability.” And in this it will have spoken the truth.
ENLEUM AMP-23R - PREVIEW
If the Bakoon AMP-13R has, indeed, been bettered either marginally or significantly by the Enleum AMP-23R, then I will absolutely reveal those details in my upcoming review. We, AudioKeyReviews, are, after all, passionate music lovers, who are incredibly supportive of the talented designers and engineers who push the envelope to bring forward components which offer the highest fidelity and musically engaging solutions. Solutions which allow for the enjoyment of the millions upon millions of songs that we all now have access to 24/7/365 via the various streaming services. I refer to these times as the Golden Age of Music Access (GAMA).
