Holo Audio Cyan 2 R2R NOS DAC: BEST Hi-Fi of 2024! By prioritising performance over non-essential features, Holoaudio’s most affordable D/A converter proves that less is more when it comes to delivering the sonic goods. The ability of this non-oversampling, resistor ladder DAC to accept PCM rates from 44.1kHz through 1,536kHz as well as DSD64 […]

Hans Beekhuyzen Review: Eversolo DMP-A10 streaming DAC and pre-amp With the DMP-A10 Eversolo introduced a flagship model, clearly again a step up from the DMP-A8. It has lots of features, like room correction, R2R volume control, two separate subwoofer outputs and a display inside the volume control. But how does it sound?

REVIEW BY 6MOONS – HOLO AUDIO CYAN 2 – BLUE MOON AWARDED! Frederic Bevdot reviewer of 6Moons concludes: “When it comes to my $1800 Denafrips Pontus II, the cheaper Holo unfortunately overshadowed it in almost every possible aspect except for mollycoddling or ‘enhancing’ poor recordings with warmth to become more listenable. The Denafrips is more […]

Hans Beekhuyzen reviews the HoloAudio Cyan2 HoloAudio is known for their R2R DACs. The Cyan 2 is targeted at those with a tighter budget but with HoloAudio desires. It uses the same conversion techniques as the higher priced versions. I bought one for my setups 2a and 1b!!!

Holoaudio Cyan 2 DAC proves that less is more EAR Review Author: Richard Barclay Verdict: The effortlessly smooth yet resolving presentation from Holoaudio’s most affordable resistor ladder DAC proves you don’t have to spend a king’s ransom to get a quality NOS implementation. Cyan 2 not only appeals to the purist who prefers listening to music without […]

Not only does Jeff Zhu’s much-anticipated flagship Class-A headphone amplifier with stereo preamp functionality achieve state-of-the-art technical performance from a discrete topology, it seemingly does so without making even the slightest of compromises on musicality. Bliss’s fully-balanced, dual-mono design and precision stepped relay attenuator with auto-adjusting gain combines life-like timbre and holographic imaging with captivating […]

WOLFGANG KEMPER if HifiStatement:  Der HoloAudio May KTE macht dem Markennamen dank seiner beinahe holografischen räumlichen Auflösung alle Ehre. Diese paart er mit authentischen Klangfarben. Er versteht es, allerfeinst zu nuancieren und bietet die Musik so ergreifend dar, dass man gar nicht ausschalten mag. Ein großartiger D/A-Wandler, dessen Preis auch deutlich höher sein könnte. Free […]

Audio-gd Master 10 Mk.2 Integrated Amplifier | REVIEW Conclusion: “I was so impressed with the off-the-chart value of this integrated amplifier, in fact, that I was prompted to start listing our PTA Best Value nominees for 2023. As the halfway point of the year passed by quietly a few weeks ago, I haven’t encountered anything […]
