the Aurender N10 is now here, most happily enscounced in the Vandersteen Treo system. Since this is a streamer only, it is connected via AES to the Ayre QX5 DAC, connected to the Ayre pre/amp. It's a wonderful unit, akin to those who would in the past be spending over $10k for a cd player. It's transparent, it's spookily revealing, I'm hearing voices in the background of songs I never knew were there from past digital sources. Pretty good, right? Come here it, it'll be excellent ear training.

Chief Listener is bored with a prospective piece of gear...I told her no worries, I told the rep I doubt it's for us and that face says it all....her face and my ears!

The Falcon LS3/5a's, in standard British cherry...a most magical speaker....and the Haven knows how to get the most out of them...you have to come in person to receive the secret knowledge....taking the Midwest by storm...no, no more storms...by great aplomb!

Behold the RoNt tubed power supply, from Brinkmann, for the Brinkmann tables. All Brinkmann tables come with a solid state power supply, this tubed glory sets one back $4190, yet the Haven claims it to be one of the best expenditures, if of course one is lucky enough to own a Brinkmann. Is there a Brinkmann table in your future?

Here's a sneak peak of the newest Line Magnetic to grace the Haven, the LP33 phono stage. Clever name. You'll see photos of the matching power supply in the Blog. It's what I've always wanted from LM, a phono stage equal to their integrateds. What a great year it's starting to be...the new P-75, the new Simplex, and soon.....
