Due to the great increase in airborne and AC-line-transmitted radio signals, combined with overtaxed utility lines and ever-increasing demands from high-definition audio\/video components, A\/V systems fall short of getting the power required to fulfill their potential. Furthermore, today's power amplifiers are strained for instantaneous peak-current demand even when driven at modest volumes. Although there has been a substantial increase in dynamic range from audio software, the loudspeakers are often no more efficient than they were 50 years ago. This places great demands on an amplifier's power supply, as well as the source of AC power supplying it. In order to properly accommodate the promise of today's ever-increasing bandwidth and dynamic range, Niagara 7000 offers extremely low system noise and provides superior current delivery across a very wide range of frequencies. Differential sample tests and spectrum analysis prove that up to a third of a high-resolution (low-level) audio signal can be lost, masked, or highly distorted by the vast levels of noise riding along the AC power lines feeding audio components. This noise couples into the signal circuitry as current noise and through the AC ground, permanently distorting and masking the source signal. Sensitive audio components require better alternating current.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eHolistic, Science-Based Noise-Dissipation Approach Proves Superior\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e When it comes to noise dissipation for AC power, many approaches can yield meaningful results. However, some approaches impart unintended effects – ringing, current compression, and non-linear distortions – that can render the cure worse than the disease. Niagara 7000 takes a holistic, science-based approach to AC power technology and represents a comprehensive solution to the ever-increasing noise that plagues today's power lines. It uses optimized radio-frequency lead directionality, electrical capacitor forming technologies developed by Jet Propulsion Laboratories and NASA, and AC inlet and outlet contacts with heavy silver plating over extreme-purity copper to ensure the tightest-possible grip.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eInstantaneous-Current Reservoir of More Than 90A Peak\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Niagara 7000 also employs the patented AC Ground Noise-Dissipation System, the world's first dielectric-biased AC isolation transformers, and the widest bandwidth-linearized noise-dissipation circuit in the industry.

In fact, the great increase in airborne and AC-line-transmitted radio signals, combined with overtaxed utility lines and the ever-increasing demands from high-definition audio\/video components, has rendered our utilities’ AC power a somewhat antiquated technology.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhere Alternating Current (AC) is concerned, we’re relying on a century-old technology created for incandescent lights and electric motors—technology that was certainly never meant to power the sophisticated analog and digital circuits used in today’s premium audio\/video systems. To properly accommodate the promise of today’s ever-increasing bandwidth and dynamic range, we must achieve extraordinarily low noise across a very wide range of frequencies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFurther, today’s power amplifiers are being taxed for instantaneous peak-current demand, even when they’re driven at modest volumes. Although we have seen a substantial increase in dynamics from much of our audio software, the loudspeakers we employ to reproduce them are often no more efficient than they were two to four decades ago. This places great demands on an amplifier’s power supply, as well as the source AC power supplying it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur systems’ sensitive components need better alternating current—a fact that has resulted in a host of AC power conditioning, isolation transformer, regeneration amplifier, and battery back-up system topologies. Through differential sample tests and spectrum analysis, it can be proven that up to a third of a high-resolution (low-level) audio signal can be lost, masked, or highly distorted by the vast levels of noise riding along the AC power lines that feed our components.

For years, we have all been witness to the same, seemingly endless audiophile debates: valves versus transistors; analog versus digital; can cables really make a difference?; and on and on. While we, too, can brag about our many unique technologies, we realize that true audio\/video optimization is never a matter of any one secret or exotic circuit. When it comes to noise filtering for AC power, many approaches can yield meaningful results. However, these approaches may also impart ringing, current compression, and non-linear distortions that can render the cure worse than the disease!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Niagara 5000 features our patented AC Ground Noise- Dissipation System, the widest bandwidth-linearized AC filter in the industry, and our unique passive\/active Transient Power Correction Circuit. Boasting an instantaneous current reservoir of over 90 amps peak, the Niagara 5000 is specifically designed for today’s current-starved power amplifiers. Many AC power products featuring “high-current outlets” merely minimize current compression; the Niagara 5000 corrects it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThough it’s easy to tout a given technology, it’s quite another thing to create a solution that is consistent, holistic, functional, and that honors verifiable science. It’s not enough to reduce AC line noise and its associated distortions at just one octave, thus leaving vulnerable the adjacent octaves and octave partials to noise, resonant peaking, or insufficient noise reduction. Consistency is key. We should never accept superior resolution in one octave, only to suffer from masking effects a half-octave away and ringing artifacts two octaves from there. This is the principal criterion for AudioQuest’s Low-Z Power Noise-Dissipation System.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Niagara 5000 represents over 20 years of exhaustive research and proven AC power products designed for audiophiles, broadcast engineers, and professional-audio applications.

Pathos also created a design and package so inspiring and universally loved, it remained unchanged for well over ten years. When a product like Logos is so close to perfection, it’s difficult to improve it.  But with new power supply upgrades as well as a redesign of the tube preamp section, the MKII was born.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt’s easy to look at the amazing exterior design and be bowled over. There’s a choice of stunning matte metallic black or exotic padouk wood which is cut, sanded, and finished by hand in-house at the Pathos factory in Vicenza, Italy. In fact, the entire amplifier is produced by hand in Italy, including the PCBs, chassis, capacitors, right down to the heatsinks that proudly spell out the name ‘Pathos’.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLook inside and this is where the magic begins.

A transformer so massive, the Logos weighs over 60 pounds!  There are \u003ci\u003ethree\u003c\/i\u003e separate stages of regulation; one for each channel of the power amp section, and one for the tube preamp section, offering the widest and deepest soundstage. That, along with a massive 44,000 uF custom-made Italian capacitors \u003ci\u003eper channel\u003c\/i\u003e promise superb bass response and a sense of grace, even when program material and speaker impedance become demanding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Logos uses MOSFETs in the output stage, known for their tube-like transfer characteristics, in a design that attempts to come sonically as close as possible to Pathos’ patented InPol circuitry. InPol is the only amplifier design, hybrid or solid-state, that gives the full glory of a tube amplifier but with \u003ci\u003econtrol\u003c\/i\u003e. Look at the numbers: 110 watts per channel into 8 Ohms, and an amazing 220 watts into 4 Ohms, with full bandwidth\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow about finesse? And beauty? And liquidity? The tube section is run in a fully-balanced configuration to guarantee the lowest noise. Pathos then implements their well-known “resistive volume control” which gives you the low noise, linearity, and perfect channel balance offered by the best electronic designs without the electronic “sheen” and “glare” often encountered with lesser brands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDetails matter. So the new LOGOS, the MKII, boasts the ability to individually adjust input levels for all your sources, so they play at the same volume. An ingenious protection circuit ensures a lifetime of enjoyment, with no audible downside.

No feature has been overlooked in search of improvements, both functional and sonic. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eQutest is based on Chord's award-winning proprietary FPGA technology developed for the class-leading Hugo 2 DAC\/headphone amp, giving it proven class-leading technical and sonic performance. It features a galvanically isolated USB-B, and optical and coaxial digital inputs. This also brings the Qutest in line with the house sound of Chord DACs—for those who know, that includes depth, warmth, width, and soundstage layering like you wouldn’t believe. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSolid Aluminum Billet\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Qutest chassis is all-new, too. It has significantly greater mass than its predecessor and has been precision-machined from solid aircraft-grade aluminum billet. The Qutest PCB nestles in a shallow cavity in the solid aluminum chassis, giving the circuit board greater protection within the casework, and additional isolation from external vibration compared to previous designs. While the Qutest is indeed quite cute, it in no way feels cheap. This small but mighty package’s aluminum chassis feels rock solid and high-end despite its near pocket-size dimensions. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eLots of Features\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQutest offers Hugo 2’s proprietary user-selectable frequency-shaping filters and input selection controls, available via two fascia-mounted spheres, introducing useful flexibility. It also features RCA analog outputs for connection to integrated amplifiers, preamps, and headphone amps, plus high-resolution dual-data digital inputs for connection to future Chord Electronics products.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe find these selectable features add a lot of flexibility to the Qutest. Though subtle, the filters do change perceptions of transient dynamics, detail and soundstage, and we think there’s a little something for everyone here, from slight warming effects to clean and clear. Best of all, it’s done with Chord’s signature clarity and transparency, yet with no sacrifice of musicality even on the most linear filter settings. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA further new feature is a user-selectable output voltage available in 1, 2, and 3 V RMS outputs for flexible connectivity with a wide range of devices. This is another great option as preamps from different eras may expect different voltages, so a vintage preamp, which may have a higher input sensitivity designed for phono, may enjoy the 1 V setting. Conversely, a more modern, lower gain preamp with a lower input sensitivity may like the 2 V or 3 V options, especially if it has tubes, which tend to benefit from more voltage gain.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe point is that the Qutest gives you the flexibility to match the output to your accompanying volume device, an invaluable and oft-overlooked capability. Once you’ve got the Qutest setup correctly, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without these settings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower supply:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 V, 2 A Micro USB\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTap length filter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 49,152 – 10 element Pulse Array design\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInputs\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUSB Type B (White):\u003c\/strong\u003e 44.1 kHz to 768 kHz – 16 bit to 32 bit\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBNC Coax (Red):\u003c\/strong\u003e x 2, 44.1 kHz – 384 kHz – 16 bit to 32 bit\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDual data mode input (using both BNC coax inputs together):\u003c\/strong\u003e 44.1 kHz to 768 kHz – 16 bit to 32 bit\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOptical (Green):\u003c\/strong\u003e 44.1 kHz to 96 kHz – 16 bit to 24 bit\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutput:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 x stereo pair of RCA \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePCM support (kHz):\u003c\/strong\u003e 44.1, 48, 88.2, 96, 176.4, 192, 358.8, 384, 717.6, and 768\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDSD support:\u003c\/strong\u003e Native playback supported.

The wood is carved from a single piece, which combined with the custom transformers brings the amp to a mighty 33 lb weight. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHigh-Quality Parts\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe volume control uses an Alps Rk27 potentiometer, and two-stage preamplifier uses CV-181 tubes and Jantzen Superior Z-Cap coupling capacitors. Power tubes are the directly heated Fullmusic 300B tubes, and the output transformers are custom-made high-end audio devices made by EDIS Ogonowski. The mains transformer is also an audio-grade unit by EDIS.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBiasing is fully automatic bias so no manual tube-biasing is required, and the electrical circuits are a zero-feedback design. The power tubes are heated with DC via a special circuit that's separate from the audio path. The power supply for anode voltages is based on MOSFET transistors and low-noise current sources. There are no transistors in the signal path of the circuit. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe XLR balanced inputs use symmetrical high-end audio grade Lundahl transformers. Audio source selection is made using high-end relays, which are placed directly behind the input connectors, in order to limit interference and noise. The careful selection of all these precision parts leads to a cleaner, clearer signal path, and makes for a tube amp that is remarkably transparent, resolving, and uncolored. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe amplifier is made using \"point to point\" technology. All wired connections are custom-made from single crystal copper (UPOCC) with a Teflon dielectric. Point-to-point wiring must be done by hand, and is the wiring scheme of choice in classic amplifiers. Not only does it allow for greater longevity and make repairs easier, it allows the use of higher quality wire and more direct signal connections without grounding or planing challenges common in PCB design. Everything about the Feliks Envy is designed as a heritage-quality lifetime ownership amplifier. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Envy will work excellently with all headphones, though we recommend for an amplifier of this size and cost, that you use a high-end flagship unit.

Euforia's unique design allows for exceptional sound quality with a broad range of headphones, powerful enough to drive even demanding low-impedance headphones (\u0026lt;32 Ohm) including planar magnetics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCrossfeed Feature\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCrossfeed is a revolutionary solution in the class of tube amplifiers that provides better control over the listening experience. This is a system that enables more natural channel separation and wider soundstage by moving a part of the lower frequency range to the opposite channel. Listening to a regular headphone amplifier places you “in the middle of the orchestra” – with certain instruments being heard strictly in the left ear while others only in the right one. Depending on the type of music, this can cause discomfort and listener fatigue. That`s why we decided to implement user-switchable cross-feed function among selected products. This lets you try a more natural, less clinical–“front-facing orchestra” experience – like in real life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnrivaled neutrality and soundstage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncredibly detailed and dynamic presentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrossfeed circuit - a revolutionary solution in tube amplifiers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVirtually no background noise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeautifully hand-crafted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePremium driver tubes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproved noise reduction circuit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-end class power transformer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtended 3-year warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBox contents\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeautifully handcrafted tube amp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatched pair of driver tubes Psvane CV-181 Mk2 “Gold”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatched pair of power tubes 6N13S (NOS) \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAC cord\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUser Manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty Card\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInput Impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100 kOhm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower Output:\u003c\/strong\u003e 280 mW\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGain:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20 dB\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOptimum Headphone Impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 32-600 Ohm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeadphone Outputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e XLR, 6.3 mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (DWH):\u003c\/strong\u003e 12.3\" x 8\" x 7.6\" (31.3 × 20.3 × 19.3 cm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15.4 lb\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Feliks Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41996902269112,"sku":"FLA-EUF-EVO","price":3349.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1564\/1247\/products\/IMG_1758.jpg?v=1741630443"},{"product_id":"t-a-elektroakustik-solitaire-t-closed-back-headphones","title":"T+A Elektroakustik Solitaire T Closed Back Headphones","description":"\u003ch1\u003eT+A Elektroakustik Solitaire T Wireless ANC Closed Back Headphones\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBluetooth headphones with active noise cancellation, crafted from solid aluminum with synthetic leather ear pads\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSolitaire T was designed to blur the distinctions between audiophile, working, and travel headphones.

This coaxial design provides outstanding stereo imaging even off axis. Because sound is produced from a single point, it comes off the speakers in a truly spherical and time-aligned wavefront. This preserves the harmonic structure of complex instruments and vocals, recreating the true acoustic sound field from a loudspeaker that is far less dependent on room location.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe F1 series IsoFlare drivers, the high-frequency unit features a highly rigid 3” titanium HF diaphragm for smooth and unstressed performance, with a massive Neodymium magnet incorporating a vented rear chamber to place low-frequency resonance well below the crossover region. This enables a very low 750Hz crossover point for the most realistic rendition of vocals. The HF driver uses a high-power handling edge-wound aluminum voice coil on a Kapton former with pure copper shorting ring for lowest distortion. Its unique IsoFlare annular waveguide has computer-optimized geometry to provide linear expansion into the room for the smoothest frequency response.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn the low-frequency section, a multi-fiber paper cone gives natural sounding midrange and extremely clean transient behavior even at concert realistic SPLs. The twin roll fabric cone surround (floorstanding models) and FyneFlute surround (standmount models) effectively terminates cone energy without time-smearing, remaining cohesively integrated to the HF driver irrespective of listening volume. The high-power LF motor system uses a giant ferrite magnet with a rectangular copper voice coil on aluminum former for class-leading power handling. The complete F1 series IsoFlare driver is built into a rigid cast aluminum chassis to eliminate unwanted vibrations and coupled to the cabinet’s internal bracing spars through a semi-compliant bonding material for exceptional damping at the driver\/cabinet interface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eBass Trax Tractrix Diffuser System \u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe patent pending BassTrax Tractrix profile LF diffuser system is a complex yet refined approach to bass loading and reflex porting. It incorporates a twin cavity cabinet design with a tuned waveguide port firing downwards from the reinforced lower panel of the cabinet. This loading technique broadens the tuning frequency to reduce cone excursion and acts as a damping system that blocks potential standing wave resonances produced by the main internal port between cavities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe lower cavity bass port vents downwards onto the BassTrax Tractrix profile diffuser. The unique, mathematically derived tractrix profile maintains a true 90 degree angle at each intersection of the expanding wavefront, so converts plain wave LF energy into a horizontally expanding spherical 360-degree wavefront with no loss of total energy. The result is seamlessly uniform LF integration into the room and a loudspeaker that is far less critical of room positioning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCrossover Design\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe F1 series crossover is a no-compromise design, hand-built onto vibration-damping fibreboard panels using the world’s finest electronic components and cables and fine tuned to deliver truly class-leading performance.

Neotech ™ PC-OCC internal wiring provides highly transparent signal transfer, connecting to the loudspeaker cable through WBT Nextgen™ gold plated bi-wire terminals. Once fully assembled and tested, every F1 crossover is Deep Cryogenically Treated. This super freezing and slow thawing process relieves microstresses in components, wiring and solder joints, maximizing signal transfer and delivering greater transparency to the sound.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFurther F1 series refinements include a fifth earth terminal that grounds the driver chassis to prevent radio frequency interference effects from masking fine detail.

Yet, studies by researchers such as Oohashi and Lenhardt have shown that these ultrasonic tones do influence our auditory experience, even if they’re not directly audible. The SuperTrax captures this spectrum and radiates the HF energy through 360 degrees, ensuring you’re not just listening to music, you are feeling it, perceiving it, and sensing it as well.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSupertweeter White Paper\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFyne Audio’s \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1564\/1247\/files\/supertrax-whitepaper-7.pdf?v=1758062977\"\u003eSuperTrax white paper\u003c\/a\u003e, authored by technical director Dr. Paul Mills, demonstrates that musical instruments, speech, and percussion generate significant ultrasonic energy, often extending well past 40 kHz and up to 100 kHz. Research indicates that listeners perceive these components indirectly, through harmonic integrity, phase coherence, and even bone conduction, meaning they influence how we experience music even below the 20 kHz limit of conventional hearing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBut aren’t recordings limited to 20 kHz?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt’s true that CD-quality audio is specified at 44.1 kHz sampling, with a nominal bandwidth of 20 kHz. However, this is not a hard ceiling. Vinyl, tape, and high-resolution digital formats routinely capture ultrasonic energy, and even some CDs allow material to leak above the cut-off depending on the filters used. More importantly, the benefit of SuperTrax is not limited to “playing” ultrasonic tones. By extending the system’s usable bandwidth, the super tweeter corrects high-frequency phase errors, which means the information you can hear is clearer, cleaner, and better timed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSo what is the supertweeter actually reproducing?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith high-resolution sources, SuperTrax reproduces real ultrasonic musical information—cymbal crashes, harmonics of strings and brass, and even sibilants in speech. With more bandwidth-limited formats, its role is equally important: it fills in where the main tweeter tails off, so that the combined acoustic response is smoother and more phase-coherent. The main tweeter’s behavior hasn’t changed, but the system as a whole no longer depends solely on its ragged roll-off. Instead, the supertweeter takes over gracefully, maintaining harmonic integrity and reducing smearing that would otherwise creep down into the audible range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Max Amplifier Power:\u003c\/strong\u003e 400 W RMS\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSensitivity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Suitable for loudspeakers up to 98 dB\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8 Ohm\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency Response (-6 dB):\u003c\/strong\u003e 16 kHz to 60 kHz\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDriver:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25 mm thin-ply carbon diaphragm (TPCD) with neodymium magnet system\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCrossover:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3rd order high pass 16 kHz, Cryogenically treated\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdjustments:\u003c\/strong\u003e +\/-3 dB from nominal setting\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (HWD):\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.4\" x 5.5\" x 10.1” (86 x 140 x 257 mm)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fyne Audio","offers":[{"title":"Walnut \/ No Cable Kit","offer_id":48275571343544,"sku":"SUPERTRAX WAL","price":4499.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Walnut \/ STC1 Premium Cable Kit","offer_id":48288052445368,"sku":"SUPERTRAX WAL+STC1","price":4948.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ No Cable Kit","offer_id":50960610558136,"sku":"SUPERTRAX BLK","price":3999.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ STC1 Premium Cable Kit","offer_id":50960610590904,"sku":"SUPERTRAX BLK+STC1","price":4448.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1564\/1247\/files\/VintageSuperTrax3Q.jpg?v=1741629956"},{"product_id":"parasound-jcm250-monoblock-power-amplifier-each","title":"Parasound JCM250 Monoblock Power Amplifier (each)","description":"\u003ch1\u003eParasound JCM250 Monoblock Power Amplifier (each)\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cfigure style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e“\u003c\/span\u003eJust sounds like music.

Speed inconsistencies are one of the most noticeable artifacts of vinyl playback, and vibration is a detail killer, so eliminating these immediately elevates sonic performance. In the SL-1300G, the new motor, three-layer platter, and high-rigidity chassis ensure excellent speed accuracy resulting in more immersion and emotion, and vanishingly low vibration, ensuring that the stylus can pick up even the tiniest details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCoreless Direct Drive\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTraditional motors have an iron core that spins in a magnetic field, and as each arm of the core hits the nearest magnetic field, it accelerates slightly and then slows down as it leaves. This results in a jerky rotation that's known as cogging. Iron cores are an older solution, and a coreless motor eliminates this by supporting the coils in a non-magnetic structure that offers silky smooth and eevn rotation. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou will instantly hear this in \"decays\", for example when a piano note is struck and allowed to resonate, a speed stable turntable will not exhibit wow and flutter as that note fades away. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTechnics also uses a twin-rotor construction that reduces the bearing load while maintaining high torque, and this overall lower stress reduces minute vibrations during rotation.

Yet, studies by researchers such as Oohashi and Lenhardt have shown that these ultrasonic tones do influence our auditory experience, even if they’re not directly audible. The S-Trax captures this spectrum and radiates the HF energy through 360 degrees, ensuring you’re not just listening to music, you are feeling it, perceiving it, and sensing it as well.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSupertweeter White Paper\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFyne Audio’s \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1564\/1247\/files\/supertrax-whitepaper-7.pdf?v=1758062977\"\u003eSuperTrax white paper\u003c\/a\u003e, authored by technical director Dr. Paul Mills, demonstrates that musical instruments, speech, and percussion generate significant ultrasonic energy, often extending well past 40 kHz and up to 100 kHz. Research indicates that listeners perceive these components indirectly, through harmonic integrity, phase coherence, and even bone conduction, meaning they influence how we experience music even below the 20 kHz limit of conventional hearing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBut aren’t recordings limited to 20 kHz?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt’s true that CD-quality audio is specified at 44.1 kHz sampling, with a nominal bandwidth of 20 kHz. However, this is not a hard ceiling. Vinyl, tape, and high-resolution digital formats routinely capture ultrasonic energy, and even some CDs allow material to leak above the cut-off depending on the filters used. More importantly, the benefit of S-Trax is not limited to “playing” ultrasonic tones. By extending the system’s usable bandwidth, the super tweeter corrects high-frequency phase errors, which means the information you can hear is clearer, cleaner, and better timed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSo what is the super tweeter actually reproducing?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith high-resolution sources, S-Trax reproduces real ultrasonic musical information—cymbal crashes, harmonics of strings and brass, and even sibilants in speech. With more bandwidth-limited formats, its role is equally important: it fills in where the main tweeter tails off, so that the combined acoustic response is smoother and more phase-coherent. The main tweeter’s behavior hasn’t changed, but the system as a whole no longer depends solely on its ragged roll-off. Instead, the supertweeter takes over gracefully, maintaining harmonic integrity and reducing smearing that would otherwise creep down into the audible range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Max Amplifier Power:\u003c\/strong\u003e 400 W RMS\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSensitivity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Suitable for loudspeakers up to 98 dB\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8 Ohm\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency Response (-6 dB):\u003c\/strong\u003e 16 kHz to 50 kHz\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDriver:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25 mm magnesium dome with neodymium magnet system\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCrossover:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3rd order high pass 16 kHz, CryoLite treated\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdjustments:\u003c\/strong\u003e +\/-4.5 dB from nominal setting\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (HWD):\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.1\" x 3.2\" x 5.6\" (79 x 82 x 149 mm) \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.2 lb.

Phasemation believes there is nothing nostalgic about the sound of vacuum tubes, and that it brings a profound sound impact that can be enjoyed even with modern music. 9 W may not sound like much, and is not much with solid-state, but with tubes and their huge current delivery, 9 W is huge, and can drive a range of loudspeakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinally, Commitment 4 was to follow a monaural design structure.

Capacity is up by 9%, resulting in better efficiency and improved battery life, which is now better than eight hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Mojo 2 also offers an ‘Intelligent Desktop Mode’ which offers battery-free operation without any losses in sound quality, plus improved filtering and isolation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImproved transparency\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMojo 2 is now DC-coupled with a digital DC servo. It benefits from an improved WTA (Watts Transient Aligned) filter, now offering 40,960 taps (the technical indicator of how complex the interpolation filter is), using 40 DSP cores. Additionally, an improved noise-shaper offers greater depth and detail perception, plus improvements to the 4e Pulse Array DAC introduce lower distortion and out-of-band noise. Greater neutrality has also been achieved, thanks to the elimination of coupling capacitors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMore On UHD DSP\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProprietary processing technology uses a 104-bit custom DSP core running at 705\/768 kHz. No other audio DSP offers the same accuracy. By using 104 bits plus extensive internal noise-shaping, Mojo 2 can deliver complete transparency by preserving the filtering of ultra-small signals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe unique UHD DSP enables fine-tuning across the full frequency range with 18 steps of adjustment per frequency banding: lower bass, mid-bass, lower treble, and high treble. The volume control range has also been improved from +18 dB to -108 dB, and now benefits from two distinct operational ranges: low and high volume. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA new four-setting crossfeed function, also DSP-controlled, brings speaker-like spatial effects for flexible headphone listening. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClass-Leading Build Quality\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Mojo 2 is designed, engineered, and handmade in the UK.
