News: Nubert & Meze
I managed to recover a bit from the past weeks and today I received 2 packages from Nubert. Included are the SP-200 which I already unboxed and placed below the A28 for a direct comparison as well as the SP-500 which are crazy heavy and still inside their packaging. I am currently listening to the S...

Christmas walk
I wanted to share this short walk through our neighbourhood when we still had a bit of snow, which completely melted in the meantime. I also wanted to take the opportunity to wish everyone a merry Christmas, and a great peaceful time together with your family or your beloved, something I cannot clai...

Audio Pro A36 vs A38 - listening session
Dunno what happened but the link to the video I had posted before somehow got lost and I couldn’t access it anymore although it was working when I posted it. Patron has lots of bugs obviously For all those wondering if the A38 sounds any different to the A36, yes it does and to my surprise it’s ...
Oluv’s audiophile collection #59
Every music era has an own “sound”, if you think of music from the 60s, 70s, 80s… I am usually not a big fan of music that was recorded during the 90s. While 70s recordings are usually warm and smooth, during the mid 80s they started to sound more and more sterile, with some cold digital sound...
Earfun UBOOM L - firmware 050
Some days ago, one of you had discovered the new released 050 firmware by Earfun which is supposed to offer more bass than my tuning. I haven't even known about this, but wanted to give it a try and also let you hear how this new version sounds, which has nothing in common with my tuning. But ma...
Visit at the Devialet store in Vienna
Today I drove to the Imperio audio store in Vienna to listen to the Devialet Mania with the intention to also shoot a live 1st impression video from within the store. Unfortunately I didn’t get permission, because the store manager was not present and anxious about Devialet causing problems regard...
DOSS Extreme Boom Speaker
I got an unannounced package with 2 DOSS Extreme Boom speakers inside. They didn’t ask me if I wanted to review it but obviously still had my address somewhere. Not sure what to do with these speakers now, best would be to throw them into the trash can. I don’t even want to bother with doing any...

Audio Pro A48 - EQ
I tried creating a quick EQ to smoothen out the frequency response of the A48. The changes are rather subtle and I am not even sure the difference becomes really that obvious through my recording or if it is represented correctly at all. But even after some adjustment I have the impression as if tre...
Audio Pro A28 & A48 - listening test
I thought it could be interesting to compare the small A28 to the A48 as well, as both have a more constant frequency response than the A36, unfortunately I didn't notice that my son mounted the covers upside down for the A28 which was also placed upside down, therefore the change in sound with ...
Audio Pro A28, A36 & A48 frequency response measurements
I performed some measurements of all 3 Audio Pro speakers, as usual outdoors from a distance of 50cm. I also did some control measurements from 1m, but they looked more or less the same with the exception of some increased ground influence creeping in. I measured without and with cover (purple) to d...

Audio Pro A48 - first impressions
A first video with the A48. I am not quite sure about the qualities of the BMR driver instead of a traditional tweeter. In some aspects it seems to give a benefit but in others it seems to perform worse. I lack the treble sweetness of the A36 somehow. Let me know what you think.
Fender Rhodes-mania - Oluv’s audiophile collection #56
Yeah, my favourite instrument is in fact the Fender Rhodes e-piano, that’s why I wanted to dedicate an own playlist just to this particular instrument which enriched not only Jazz-music since the 60s.I love the variety of its sound colours depending on the used effects like wah wah, phaser, auto p...
Audio Pro A28 - first impressions
I was surprised about the bassheavy sound of the small A28, although adjusted it sounds pretty nice and in some aspects seems even more correct than my A36.I will shoot another video with both speakers placed equally. I also unboxed the A48 in the meantime and will also put them against the A36 shor...
I‘m back…
After having had quite a hard time lately because of some nasty family grudge, I finally managed to finish the mild renovation attempt of our home and should be more active on Patreon again. I had suffered from some depression recently which made me ignore anything audio related. While recovering a ...
Delay
There is obviously some delay with the production of my new microphones as the “designer” has some family problems and cannot build them right now, thus I cannot really perform any quality recordings neither measurements with the current setup which is why I decided to take some time off from ev...
Music for the day: Simon Oslender - Peace Of Mind
For fans of Smooth jazz, Fusion, or let’s call it contemporary jazz, the new album from Simon Oslender is a must listen with his feel good attitude and nice clean recording quality, making me listening to it already the 3rd time. https://music.apple.com/at/album/peace-of-mind-feat-wolfgang-haffner...

Hi everyone, I hope you are having a great time just like me. We extended our stay in Croatia due to the great weather which makes us feel as if it was still a bit of summer in November.I started to add all my old playlists to both Spotify and Deezer among Apple Music thanks to a friend who offered ...

HK Onyx Studio 7 better than 6?
I compared both a while back but recently Cyberport had some discount for the 7 selling it for 130€ and I decided to grab one again. I didn’t remember it to be that bad but to my surprise I liked the 6 way more soundwise.I’ll probably still keep it to have both 6 and 7 to be compared to the 8...
Audio-Technica ATH-M50xBT2 EQ
A friend sent me his ATH-M50xBT2 for a test. I attached a measurement compensated for my target which shows some stronger channel-imbalance and a similar response to what RTings had measured.The headphones comes with an own app which provides a parametric 5-band EQ. Unfortunately the filters are qui...
