Sufjan Stevens - "Illinoise". Amazing SQ, and as a bonus amazing music, too...

According to the pdf available on the CA website, that will be 85 x 430 x 305 mm (H x W x D).

Nope, my experience with headphone amps is quite limited: apart from the rubbish headphone stages in integrated amps and a couple of CD players, I only owned a Pro-ject Headbox SE a couple of years ago, and now I have the Little Dot MkIII (because I wanted to have a taste of the "tubes...

Sizzlers, my fault, I did not make myself clear: as you mention, the last thing AKG's bass can be adjectivated is flabby or woolly; they have a very tight, well controlled bass. I simply wanted to say the 668's are not an "impressive-first-listen-and-then-unbearable" thing, I was by no means...

Sizzlers, In my opinion, and playing in my "headphone" system (Cambridge Audio 740C cd player and Little Dot MkIII headphone amp), the AKG are highly revealing, highly transparent, and score very highly in the "technicalities" but they just can't set my feet tapping like the 668b's do, nor get...

Definitely, Highway 61 Revisited.

Thanks Ajani, I wasn't aware of that. As you mention, it should be hitting Europe's streets pretty soon... Ricardo65, you are right, 440? ain't exactly cheap, but have you looked at the price of the likes of the Marantz NA7004 and the new Rotel streamer just launched? I live in Portugal, and I...

Thanks for your input, Andrew. I am just wondering what the good fellows from CA understand by "soon"... Congrats on the mag and on the website, they're great.

Hi everybody. I wonder if anyone has any news concerning the launch of the Cambridge Audio NP30 music streamer/Internet Radio, etc??? I am looking for such a device to integrate into my current HiFi setup, and seen the recent launch of similar devices from Marantz, Yamaha and Rotel, but they...
