Merason DAC 1 - HiFi News Highly Recommend Review
Top dog in a range of just two outboard DACs from Swiss brand Merason, the DAC1 is a modern-day example of 'less is more' audiophile thinking. We lift the lid and investigate In common with a lot of HFN readers, I have a bit of a 'thing' about overly complex digital devices. I'm not referring to input flexibility – many of us will have systems in which different flavours of digital connection are accommodated, from USB links from a computer to good old S/PDIF from a CD player or the like. No, what I really find obstructive is devices bristling with digital-domain...
Audiovector R3 Signature Review - HiFi + Highly Commended
HI-FI + (UK) AUDIOVECTOR R 3 SIGNATUREHI-FI+, DECEMBER 2020 HI-FI+ 2020 HIGHLY COMMENDED AWARDAudiovector R 3 Signature “The R 3’s tonal balance is just about spot-on, too.

Staff Review: David's First impressions of the R3 Arette
As I mentioned in my earlier initial review of the R1 speakers the new R3 floor standing models are the replacement of the SR3 series. While we were huge fans of the SR3 models the new R3 Arrete is simply sensational. Like the R1 series the new ribbon tweeter is derived from the £50,000 R8 loudspeaker and other improvements include new midrange drivers, upgraded crossovers and the ability to add the new Freedom grounding cables. While the price has gone up to £8999 which is about £1000 more than the previous models the improvements are significant. There are also two...
