CCA Rhapsody Review!
CCA delivers some fun experiments, often packing a crazy number of drivers in an earbud case. Rhapsody take this idea to another level, with hardware switches to TUNE all the drivers inside.
Is this something folks are going to use? Let’s take a look! Continue reading “CCA Rhapsody Earbuds Review: A Tuning Gimmick?”
Meze Alba review!
A gorgeous new IEM from Meze Audio, and it arrives at a LOWER price than their previous earbuds! Thankfully, it still comes beautifully accessorized. They look REAL nice, but how do they sound?

Shanling UA4 Review!
It’s a tiny little portable DAC, but it’s putting out a HUGE sound. A new ESS chip reduces power, and smooths out out some of the sound. The amp is punchy. There’s a CUTE little screen, and it’s surprisingly affordable!

Sineaptic SE-1 First Listen!
This is one of the most exotic diaphragm designs I’ve ever taken for a test drive, but thankfully this isn’t an exotically priced headphone. Sineaptic delivers one of the most articulate sounds I’ve ever heard near this price point, and it’s a Bluetooth headphone too!
But what the heck is a RIBBON Headphone??? Continue reading “Sineaptic SE-1 Preview: What the Heck is a Ribbon Headphone?!?!”
iFi Gryphon review! This might be one of the best audio products I’ve ever reviewed. It’s certainly one of the most flexible DACs I’ve ever tested. Gryphon delivers fantastic performance cabled or over Bluetooth, has solid battery life, and a number of settings to tweak and customize.
I can’t praise this enough. Let’s chat! Continue reading “ifi Audio xDSD Gryphon Portable DAC Review: GOLD STANDARD”
Audeze Euclid review!
Let’s not beat around the bush here, these earbuds are incredible. Packing a planar magnetic driver into each case, the Euclid deliver unparalleled audio quality. With such an exotic build though, we should also expect an exotic price tag.

These guys are NERDCORE, and I love it!
