Stereophile May 2021

Stereophile May 2021

2nd Edition

Pro-Ject The Beatles SGT. Pepper Essential III, Special Edition Turntable Sweepstakes
Register to win a Pro-Ject The Beatles SGT. Pepper Essential III, Special Edition Turntable (value $500.00) we are giving away.

Analog Corner #310: Haniwa HCTR-CO Mk.II phono cartridge, SW1X LPU I phono preamplifier
Almost exactly a year ago to the day that I'm writing this--March 11, 2020--the WHO officially declared COVID-19 to be a pandemic.

NAD C 298 power amplifier
Power amplifiers should be boring. They have a single, well-defined function: Make the input signal large enough to run a loudspeaker so that it makes sound at levels suitable for listening to music.

Re-Tales #9: Mind the Gap
To borrow Lyric Hi-Fi owner Leonard Bellezza's words from last month's Re-Tales, the traditional audiophile customer base "is graying."

Marten Parker Trio Diamond Edition loudspeaker
2020 may not have been a year to celebrate, but there were some housebound highlights. For example, after I had finished with the measurements to accompany Michael Fremer's review of the Marten Oscar Duo in the November 2020 issue, I set up these Swedish two-way standmounts in my own listening room.

Gramophone Dreams #49: KEF KC62 subwoofer
We have inherited an infinitely vast library of recorded musical art, the majority of which is well-recorded but has yet to be fully and completely reproduced.

1st Edition

Recording of June 2021: NOW
In its sixth year, International Anthem seriously stepped up production. 2020 saw the Chicago label releasing a fast succession of rewarding albums, including a standout disc by Tortoise guitarist Jeff Parker and adventurous jazz by Rob Mazurek and the collective Irreversible Entanglements.

London Maroon Cartridge and StylusTimer Sweepstakes
Register to win a London Maroon Cartridge (Value $950.00 ea) and a StylusTimer (value $19.95) we are giving away.

Mary Halvorson: Melt the Frame
In her reworking of the Beatles' "With a Little Help from my Friends," on the 2018 tribute album, A Day In The Life: Impressions Of Pepper (impulse records), Brooklyn guitarist and composer Mary Halvorson reinvents both her instrument and the song.

Shunyata Research Everest 8000 power conditioner
Shunyata Research is the brainchild of Caelin Gabriel, whose resume includes stints at NSA, in military R&D, and in the computer industry, first digging weak signals out of noise then developing very high-speed network devices. He is also a lifelong audiophile.

Mytek HiFi Brooklyn AMP+ power amplifier
Big changes are afoot at Mytek. First up: The Mytek Brooklyn AMP+, the newest version of the compact, class-D Brooklyn AMP. The AMP+ is already in production.

Revinylization #17: Gearbox Records & ERC's Jazz Reissues
In Revinylization #9, I profusely praised the expensive, unobtanium Electric Recording Company (ERC) stereo reissue of Sonny Rollins's Way Out West. The record was superb-sounding and beautifully made.
