The competition doesn't sleep

My dealer says: CD version expected to be available from June 1st, 2025.
Worth a try!

Edit: Not for me! I don't like these colourful mouse cinemas. Display is enough for me. But quite sure this will have a strong market.

Very tempting in the cd version. How good is the squeeze connect feature for Lyrion integration, I wonder?

Makes me want a large screened WiiM even more

not a really great 'what hifi' day for the competition. two out of five stars sound rating in this infamous publication for the play cd edition is at least a little slap.

If they come out with a premium model with a bit of extra power and better sound, for €200 extra, I'm out of here probably

Bowie's legendary Hi-Fi system returns as an exceptionally limited edition

The Brionvega Radiofonografo 60th Anniversary Edition isn't just a Hi-Fi, it's a work of art

Very happy nowadays with my Marantz M1 pure digital (PCM->PWM, with global feedback [non-load-dependent frequency response], no DAC stage at all) streaming power amp with DIRAC Live.







Supports Qobuz Connect, UPnP, and eARC. For ARC input it fully downmixes the LFE channel to stereo from Dolby Digital+. Literally does everything I need, and sounds amazing. One box to do it all. And I paid under $800 shipped, can be under $1,000 all-in once you add limited range DIRAC Live (goes up to 500Hz and I’m only correcting 12.5-300Hz anyway). I was a dunce and paid for the full-range DIRAC only to find out that it sounds like poo when corrected up to 1000Hz. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
