Meet the Gear
We’re taking things outside with the PSB CS1000—a high-performance indoor/outdoor speaker designed to deliver true hi-fi sound in places most speakers simply can’t. Built to handle the elements without sacrificing clarity or detail, the CS1000 redefines what outdoor audio can sound like.
This time, we’re looking at the NAD C 3050 Stereophonic Amplifier—a component that blends vintage-inspired design with modern engineering. With its classic aesthetic, analog VU meters, and support for modular upgrades, the C 3050 captures the spirit of traditional hi-fi while delivering the connectivity, power, and flexibility expected in today’s systems.
While streaming dominates the conversation, physical formats still hold a special place for many listeners. This time, we’re revisiting the compact disc with the Roksan Attessa CD Transport. Designed for those who value the precision and consistency of CD playback, it focuses on one job, and does it exceptionally well: extracting every bit of musical detail from your discs and delivering it with clarity and accuracy to the rest of your system.
The DALI IO-12 headphones combine the brand’s legendary loudspeaker expertise with portability, delivering true Hi-Fi audio in a sleek, versatile design. Whether you’re at home, commuting, or traveling, these headphones promise to transform every listening moment into a detailed, immersive experience.
We’re spotlighting the Roksan Caspian 4th Generation Streaming Amplifier with BluOS—a component that blends traditional high-fidelity amplification with modern high-resolution streaming. Designed to serve as the centerpiece of a serious audio system, the Caspian 4G combines power, refinement, and connectivity in a way that feels both timeless and forward-thinking.
We’re turning our attention to portable audio with the DALI Katch G2. While many portable Bluetooth speakers prioritize convenience over sound quality. DALI takes a distinctly hi-fi approach. Drawing on decades of loudspeaker design expertise, the Katch G2 delivers rich, detailed, and expansive sound from a compact, beautifully designed form, proving that great audio doesn’t have to stay at home.
