  • FiiO M11 PRO Review – Standing Above the Rest

    This review is posted here in partnership with Soundnews.net. It was originally written and published by Sandu Vitalie of Soundnews.net on Dec. 23, 2019. Without too much fanfare on 30 July of this year (2019), FiiO dropped the bomb and announced their latest and greatest M11 PRO DAP in a Facebook post. To this day, that one was the most commented post in FiiOs history and a clear message that people were genuinely excited about that one. Besides dual AK4497EQ flagship DAC chips, M11 PRO promised to be the world’s first DAP with dual THX-AAA-78 headphone amplifier modules. If you checked my latest reviews around here you probably know how much I love THX designs for their accuracy and honesty in delivering a clear and unaltered signal to every headphone. At the end of the day I am using daily a Benchmark HPA4 as my flagship desktop headphone amplifier and that says a lot about me and my tastes.
  • Audeze LCD-MX4 Reviews Compendium

    In an episode of Futurama, Fry meets God, who imparts this advice: “When you do things right, people won’t be sure you’ve done anything at all.” It’s the sort of maxim that walks a knife’s edge between Hallmark schlock and real wisdom. It’s also a pretty accurate way to describe the Audeze LCD-MX4, a headphone that’s so objective, so analytical, so pure that it offers listeners a chance to peer into the source music itself. Is that a good thing? We’ll let the reviews speak for themselves. 
  • FiiO M15 DAP Review - A Trend Setter

    This review is posted here in partnership with Soundnews.net. It was originally written and published by Sandu Vitalie of Soundnews.net on Jan. 29, 2020.   Who would thought that at their flagship year from its inception, FiiO would announce at their Winter Launch Event in an One More Thing stunt, their highest performance and highly anticipated M15 DAP. What was quite unusual even for FiiO is that instead of just showing it to the world and telling everyone you will need to wait for another 6 months before you can buy it, it was available right away with preorders starting the next day. I still remember that I waited for more than 6 months for a M11 PRO after its announcement and I’m glad that didn’t happen with M15.

  • Apos Audio Redesign: Our Refashioned Storefront

    Last month we announced that Apos was embarking on a redesign project that we felt was appropriate given the changes and growth we had experienced over the last year and a half since our founding.

We see not only Apos’ success but frankly our survival on being involved and responsive with our customers and community. Apos is a company that is made of audio enthusiasts, for audio enthusiasts. Doing well as a company and doing good by our customers is not a zero sum game; we see the two going hand-in-hand, like hot sauce & burritos or fried chicken n’ waffles.
