Speakers: KEF LS50 Meta
Why we chose it: The LS50s are inspired by the legendary LS3/5a to bring a professional studio monitor concept into the home. These speakers have become a generation-defining cult classic in the world of audio. The LS50 Meta radiates an extremely large listening "sweet spot" and delivers a remarkably fast, clean, and expansive sound. The LS50 Meta is a modern iteration of one of the most popular speakers ever made.
Turntable: Pro-Ject X1 Turntable
Why we chose it: X1 is the 7th Generation of the hi-fi classic Pro-Ject 1, first presented in 1991, that put Pro-Ject on the map. This newest iteration features a completely reengineered carbon fiber / aluminum tone-arm with a resonance damping counterweight for lightning quick dynamics and resistance to external interference. The new 1.5kg non-resonant acrylic platter features an all new sub-platter drive system with stainless steel bearing, soft brass bushing, and Teflon mirrors for perfectly smooth rotation. As a special feature, this turntable comes with the lauded Sumkio Olympia cartridge Factory-Installed.
Amplifier: Yamaha A-S801
Why we chose it: The R-N803 is the perfect mix of Yamaha’s state-of-the-art amplification and digital technologies. This feature packed amp offers host to a variety of both analog and digital inputs allowing you to enjoy your music how you want. The USB DAC function supports native DSD (2.8 MHz and 5.6 MHz) and PCM (384 kHz / 32-bit*) resolutions. This function allows for a direct connection to PCs which opens the door to play back of the highest resolution audio content offered today. The Yamaha-developed USB device controller has its own master clock that eliminates PC jitter.
