My experience
The brand Riviera, has gained well-deserved international recognition due to high quality construction and its refined and musical sound. A beautiful designed Italian integrated amplifier and extremely natural-sounding.

The Riviera Levante reproduces lots of richness of the music, exposing a lot of details and delicate sounds and nuanced tonal shadings. The sound space has a beautiful glow and flow, vibrating, very natural with Zero Feedback. The Riviera Levante integrated amplifier has all the elements that Riviera amplifiers stand for and includes the option to choose between pure Class A and Class AB operation. A switch on the front panel allows you to select the operating class according to your preferences and or needs.

Beautiful  design, high quality and very musical…

My experience
A complete different level of performance… Ultra High-end in all its glory!

The Alieno 250 LTD MK2 is an extraordinary amplification system, with a single ended triode design, which is able to power any (difficult)speaker. The Alieno 250 LTD MK2 is a true ground-breaking product. The Alieno 250 LTD MK2 is an OTL-OCL (Output Transformer Less & Output Capacitor Less) Single Ended, pure Class A amplifier and is te first and only amplifier in the world utilising two 300B tubes generating 250W per channel.

The secret is the proprietary LTD technology (Loudspeaker Tube Direct) which allows the use of tubes exclusively for amplification circuitry with transistors used exclusively for power supply and protection circuits. The Alieno 250 LTD MK2 is not a hybrid tube/transistor amplifier.

Purity, tone, immediacy, emotion, refinement and naturalness of a 300B Single Ended Triode(SET) amplifier combined with huge power and control, great bass and grip and no NO negative feedback.
The Alieno 250 LTD MK2 is one of the fastest amplifiers I came across.

The Alieno 250 LTD MK2 is build beautifully futuristic with its adjustable light design. Very high standard design and for sure a luxurious piece of Art in any (Ultra high-end audio)room.

The Alieno 250 LTD MK2 achieves what many consider to be the ‘Holy Grail’ of amplification… Mind blowing!

My experience
The Alieno Preamp MK2 contains many unique and exclusive technical design features and technologies. I do not know how they do it but the Alieno preamp MK2 uses an innovative technology to obtain an ultra-refined yet powerful signal. This technology offers completely distortion free signal handling. The Alieno preamp MK2 has key technological features which deliver this incredible performance; transparency, accuracy and speed of the musical signal.

One of the two pairs of tubes used in the ALIENO Preamplifier is the 6H30 (the other pair is the ECC82). This tube is acclaimed in the audio design field for the purity of its sound. After its breaking in period, the 6H30 embraces the listener with natural tonality and wonderful realism.

The Alieno preamp MK2 is an attempt to make the world’s best preamplifier; uncompromising in its design and sound reproduction. With its unique design and no-expense spared build quality, it is simply one of the best sounding preamplifiers ever created.

Transparent to the source and facilitates, the Alieno preamp MK2 delivers nothing but the music!

My experience
So far the best preamplifier I have ever owned. 

With a build quality in every aspect of its design, a great user interface and a superior sound quality this is so far for me the King of all preamps I have experienced.

The Boulder 2110 has a three-part chassis sitting on the massive 2100 outboard power supply, which comprises four separate, isolated supplies. Such clarity and transparent, ultra detailed, amazing tonal experience, very large soundscapes and a super impressive bass control. Very smooth though definitely NOT analytical sounding. Simply heaven when listening to the Boulder 2110.

I can go on and on about how amazed and excited I am listening to the Boulder 2110, but words simply can not classify and explain what an amazing preamp this is. It cost an amazing amount of money but fully worth it!!

My experience
The dCS Vivaldi DAC has a beautiful designed aerospace grade machined aluminum chassis, fitted with tuned acoustic damping panels to reduce any magnetic effects and vibration.

The dCS Vivaldi is so far the best non–digital-sounding digital system I’ve heard. Used as a standalone DAC or as part of a complete Vivaldi digital audio playback system, the Vivaldi DAC gives a performance of effortless realism and is capable to give an amazing performance from any digital source. The dCS Vivaldi DAC sets world beating standards for accuracy and control of troublesome jitter from the incoming audio stream and for those interested… the USB interface allows easy connection to a computer.

You either are able to use the Vivaldi as a standalone DAC or as part of a complete Vivaldi digital audio playback system. The enhanced digital volume control allows direct connection to a power amplifier, so in the majority of systems there is no need for a separate preamplifier.

The Vivaldi DAC is glad fully super easy to set up and use… 

dCS Vivaldi DAC is a true upgrade for those who aim for the highest audio playback levels. 

My experience
The build quality of the CH-precision L1 is of industrial beauty. Built to last and with a modular construction that permits future add-ons, as well as downloadable firmware updates. The back panel has a full complement of In/Out jacks supporting both XLR and RCA. The L1 is fully balanced and performs optimally in that mode.

The L1 belongs definitely in the neutral camp, extremely well-articulated and open, clean, strong, direct, extremely transparent, precise, fast and refined, but also creating beautiful, emotional responses.

The CH-precision L1 is one of the most audibly invisible line controls..
