Inside the Studio
Blackbird Studio
Steve Sutherland  |  Mar 12, 2024

From Dolly Parton to Pearl Jam, White Stripes to Snoop Dogg... this facility in
Nashville is not just a recording studio but a teaching academy too. Steve
Sutherland explains...

Name's Gregg...' We're some 30 minutes into the interview when the door to the
cramped London hotel room opens and he stumbles in and collapses onto the bed.
He's wearing headphones big as earmuffs and appears to be listening to something
or other on his Walkman.

dCS Lina Network DAC 2.0 Network-Attached DAC
Review: Mark Craven,  |  Mar 11, 2024

Nestled at the heart of dCS's three-box Lina headphone amp solution is the Lina
DAC, now refreshed with APEX-level firmware as a springboard into its mainstream
range

When dCS was founded in 1987, the idea that hi-fi hardware could be
comprehensively upgraded without the need to lug it back to the shop might have
seemed the stuff of science-fiction. Skip forward some 40 years, however, and
firmware updates – delivered over-the-air for networked products – have become
the norm. They're often used to squash 'bugs' and tweak minor settings, but what
the Cambridge-based company has done with its Lina Network DAC is more
noteworthy.

Denon DCD-600 CD Player
Review: Tim Jarman,  |  Mar 08, 2024

Putting its re-badged CD players behind it, in 1987 Denon unveiled a machine to
take on models from the brands that first brought CD to the market. How will it
shape-up today?

Early CD players from Philips and Sony are considered by some collectors to be
the most covetable vintage models because they came from the very companies that
created the format. You can add to this list machines from Denon, whose Pulse
Code Modulation (PCM) system underpinned the way analogue signals were
transformed into digital data, recorded, played back and finally turned back
into music again.

BAT REX 500 Power Amplifier
Review: Mark Craven,  |  Mar 07, 2024

Less is very much more in BAT's flagship stereo power amp where its
third-generation 'SuperPak+' PSU meets a fully balanced output stage featuring
N-channel MOSFETs

Here's a fun game to play: look through the product catalogue of US manufacturer
Balanced Audio Technology and try to spot the odd one out. It should only take
you a matter of seconds because all of its current models, bar one, employ tubes
in either their power or preamp stages. And if you still haven't realised I'm
talking about the new REX 500 power amplifier, it's the one that's roughly twice
as big as all the others.

Scritti Politti: Cupid & Psyche 85
Mike Barnes  |  Mar 05, 2024

The politically infused post-punk of the band's early singles morphed into
meticulously crafted electronic pop for their major label debut album in 1985,
although singer Green Gartside's philosophical lyrics would remain as elusive as
ever...

In 1985, Scritti Politti had enjoyed chart success with their second album,
Cupid & Psyche 85, and had achieved hit singles both in the UK and the US. And
with his dreamy demeanour, honeyed vocals and dyed blonde mullet, lead singer
and occasional guitarist/keyboard player Green Gartside had become a bona fide
pop star.

Musical Fidelity Nu-Vista Vinyl 2 Phono Preamp
Review: Adam Smith,  |  Mar 04, 2024

Previewed at the UK Hi-Fi Show Live '23, Musical Fidelity's much anticipated
Nu-Vista front-end components – a DAC and phono preamp – see the latter leading
the charge

Visitors to Henley Audio's room at the UK Hi-Fi Show Live at Ascot's Grandstand
back in Sept '23 will already have seen three new items from Musical Fidelity,
all partnering the Nu-Vista PRE and PAS amplifiers [HFN Mar '23]. The new M8xTT
turntable [HFN Dec '23] has already premiered in these pages and this is
followed here by the Nu-Vista Vinyl 2 phono stage and Nu-Vista DAC, both priced
£9999.

Loudspeakers
Gershman Acoustics Grand Studio II Loudspeaker
Review: Andrew Everard,  |  Mar 01, 2024

Unusual, if not unique – does this Canadian company's idea of stacking two
speakers for each channel pay sonic dividends?

The idea of stacked speakers is nothing new: SME founder Alastair
Robertson-Aikman was famed for using double-decker Quad ELS57 electrostatics
[HFN Sep '77 & Dec '01] and the idea was even endorsed by the speaker company
which provided instructions to achieve the same thing, with the upper speaker
mounted in a frame upside down above the lower. Even the late brand ambassador,
Ken Ishiwata, was for a while demonstrating his Marantz electronics with stacked
pairs of Mordaunt-Short Performance 6 speakers mounted in frames he'd spec'd and
had custom-made.
