QUAD II mono amplifier

These valve amplifiers are a living legend, proof that sometimes the old things are still good. Looking at the design, it's clear that the Quad II is not here to impress you with weird shapes. 


With their metal chassis and valves sticking up like a row of soldiers (2 x EF86, 2 x KT66 and 1 GZ32) , they seem to say, "We don't need to look good; we already know we're fantastic."

But the real magic happens when you plug them in and press the power button. Despite to a faint hum as the valves, like an old engine waking up from a slumber, when the music starts to flow, it's almost a mystical experience. The Quad II amplifiers have a warm and enveloping sound that makes you feel like you've stepped back into the 1950s, when listening to the radio was a family event.



And don't be fooled by their retro appearance because the Quad II can hold their own against many modern amplifiers. Despite the age they offer a top-of-the-class performance without ever been clouded or cloesed: infact bass is deep and smooth, the highs are clear without being harsh.

In short, if you're an audio enthusiast looking for an amplifier with a story to tell, the Quad II is a fantastic choice. Once you've listened to them, you'll understand why they've become legendary…stay tuned πŸ˜‰

SPENDOR LS 3/5a

 


The Spendor LS3/5a is the Holy Grail for many Hi-Fi enthusiasts, renowned for their simply exceptional midrange reproduction. Every detail of voices and acoustic instruments is rendered with a clarity that leaves you in awe. It's like listening to live music in your own room—an intimate and engaging experience.


These speakers are the joy and bane of audiophiles. Their outstanding sonic precision comes with some obvious limitations: the power handling is limited, making them unsuitable for high volumes. Additionally, their ability to soundproof larger rooms is restricted, making them ideal for smaller spaces or as studio monitors.


Spendor LS3/5a is perfect for those seeking a detailed and refined sonic experience, but they might not be the right choice for those looking for more power or a broader sound for large spaces. If you value purity in the midrange and have a smaller listening environment, these speakers are a must-consider, despite to the age! Stay tuned ;)

DENON DP 80

The Denon DP-80 is a turntable that looks like it came straight out of a mad inventor's workshop. But don't let its vintage appearance fool you; this is a true tank in the world of turntables. With its direct-drive motor and pitch control, it's the kind of device that makes DJs and audio purists drool.



One thing that struck me is the solid design. Despite its sturdiness, it has a gentle touch when it comes to reproducing sound. It's like it's capable of capturing every nuance of your favorite tracks, from the high frequencies to the deep, vibrant bass.


If you love vinyl and want a turntable that is reliable, high-performing, and, why not, a bit vintage chic, the Denon DP-80 is a choice that won't disappoint. Once you start playing vinyl, with a turntable like this, there's no turning back.




Stay tuned!
