I recommend all audiophiles try both the LM and a studio piece. As I have done. I’ve tried LM, CO, Avalon, Millennia, Skyline, and soon to be Hendyamps Michelangelo. Only your ears can tell you what’s sonically best to you. But when you hear it, i...

The biggest difference between analog and digital EQ is the naturalness and decay of cymbal strike, those attributes being much better with analog. But there are great advances recent years in digital algorithms, and the gap is closing. I still pr...

I felt at this point since I’m using the piece with synergistic success in two separate chains that I’d post some history on it. I initially bought it from SoundPure pro audio to insert in the tape loop of my Bryston B135 SST2 integrated amp with ...
