Part 2: HRT Stage, a compact audio system with high-end capabilities?



Part 2: HRT Stage, a compact audio system with high-end capabilities? Earlier this year I auditioned a brand new compact audio system from HRT called Stage. Back then it wasn’t even released yet, and the system I auditioned was only a production prototype. HRT has been everything but modest in the marketing of Stage, and claim that people have compared the performance of Stage equal to systems in the $20.000 US [...]

Sennheiser OMX680i Sports headset for iPhone and iPod



Sennheiser OMX680i Sports headset for iPhone and iPod I’ve been looking around for a decent pair of workout headphones to use with my iPhone for a while now. My old workout headphones were not really sports headphones and they had no iPhone remote either. And so I found a promising model from Sennheiser called OMX680i which are at writing moment a fairly new model. I have good trust in Sennheise [...]

B&W CM8, slim speakers with a slim sound



B&W CM8, slim speakers with a slim sound I have had several listening sessions with B&W CM8 lately because it’s a very interesting alternative to the larger and much more expensive big brother B&W CM9. The question is, for €700 less then the price of CM9 does it even come close to the awesome sound and performance of its big brother? My first impression on the CM8 in direct [...]

Crysis 2, almost awesome!



Crysis 2, almost awesome! Will this be another historic release from Crytek? Crysis 2 running on the new CryENGINE 3 has expectations set high and I had to buy it! I picked up the Limited Edition at Webhallen for 399SEK. It is no secret that it takes a high performance computer to run graphic settings at Extreme mode but in return Crysis 2 has to be the absolutely pre [...]

B&W XT8, Design speakers with hi-fi qualities.



B&W XT8, Design speakers with hi-fi qualities. Lifestyle design with slim design speakers and high-fidelity audio does usually not walk hand in hand. In most cases, unless you have an unlimited cash flow, you will have to compromise in either the sound quality or the design to achieve the other. B&W XT8 are in my opinion a rare exception! The slim and well-built aluminum cabinets come [...]

Ray LaMontagne.



Ray LaMontagne. Ray LaMontagne And The Pariah Dogs I went to my favorite hifi-klubben store to get a demo of the new B&W XT8 speakers. I was listening back and forth to CD’s I already know very well how they’re supposed to sound like. Great listening session, awesome speakers! I was asked if I have heard Ray LaMontagne which I had not up until then. The [...]

My new speakers, B&W DM685



My new speakers, B&W DM685 The B&W DM685 is a great all-round speaker for its money! A few things to keep in mind though that they are slightly forgiving and soft in their sound. They are also missing that very last bit in resolution in the midrange. But with the price tag in mind I think it is hard to find a better stand mount speaker in this class. They are very [...]

My new Rotel RA-06 SE.



My new Rotel RA-06 SE. Keeping in mind that I have owned several high-end amplifiers such as Krell KSA-150, Audion Silver Night 300B, NAD Master M3, Marantz PM-11S1 and so on, the Rotel RA-06 SE would seem to be a small amplifier for my choice. The Rotel RA-06 SE might not look so scary on the outside, but under the hood it hides a muscle machine. Specified by Rote [...]
