Hificlube.net received a long and interesting comment from Prof. Bento Coelho on the "Audio Research I/50 - tubes rock" review by JVH. Prof. Bento Coelho is the most outstanding national specialist in Acoustics and discusses controversial topics such as measurement vs hearing.

Bryston BDA-3 impressed JVH as a 2016 state-of-the-art digital converter that stood the test of time and still holds its ground at the top in 2022.

The ECI 80D is a €2,999 integrated amplifier from Norway with 80W of power, phono stage (MM), DAC and Bluetooth streaming. JVH took it for a ride.

Unique in its ribbon technology, open-baffle design and sound quality, the SR1b is a must-listening for all audiophiles. They are one of the best headphones I've ever heard – if not the best in some items, like transparency, speed, micro dynamics, and soundstage.

The Audeze MM-500 are perhaps the headphones that best reproduce the acoustic feel of listening to a good pair of studio monitors in the near field.

Hificlube.net now has audio versions of new articles and reviews originally published in English and Portuguese in text form.
