Bang & Olufsen and Saint Laurent are back at it again with their fifth collaboration, proving that nothing pairs better than high fashion and high fidelity. Their last team-up in 2019 gave us the Beosound A9 and Beoplay A1, which are still available, btw. But this time, they’ve gone full […]
Turntables haven’t changed much over the years. Makes sense—why fix what isn’t broken? The mechanics of vinyl records have stayed the same, so the design of record players has largely stuck to tradition. But one company has decided to take a hard left turn into uncharted territory. Meet the Waiting […]
Damn, it’s been four years since we last talked about McIntosh. If you haven’t already heard, the brand has been scooped up by Bose. And while we’re not entirely sure if the McIntosh MSA5500 2-Channel Streaming Integrated Amplifier is the first product under its new parent company, one thing’s for […]

Smartphones have eradicated the portable music player from the market. Well, almost. In case you are not in the know, it did escape total annihilation. But gone are the cheap, iPod wannabes, and surviving the wrath of smartphones is a niche market for high-fidelity portable music players like those from […]
Bang & Olufsen has graced us with the Beoplay H100, the headphones for people who think sound quality should be as luxurious as their designer leather shoes. With 40 mm titanium drivers and noise-canceling microphones (it has 10!) that could probably block out a jet engine (or your annoying neighbor), […]
If you haven’t already heard, the Bowers & Wilkins Pi series of earbuds has a new member. The Bowers & Wilkins Pi8 True Wireless Earbuds, as it is called, take listening to the next level with reference-quality sound that’s hard to match. These earbuds are sleek, and comfortable, and come […]
