The C1+A1 combination sounds ultra-transparent, clean and controlled but also smooth and fluid, and organic, wholly musical and absolutely convincing.

A bigger cabinet, a new 1700VA toroidal transformer, new Red Caps, and an improved internal layout not only increase the output rating from 100 to 150 watts into 8 ohms but also make for a huge leap in sound quality.

Part 2 of the C1+A1 review.

Unlike many alternatives, the P1 refrains from imposing any character and it just lets the music speak for itself. But it does not only offer brilliant performance, it is also also the most flexible phono stage that I know to exist. Multiple inputs? Over 500 loading values? Tablet-control? Auto-calibration? Check, check, check, and check.

Friday, November 19th and Saturday 20th, Rhapsody held a show using a host of ultra-high-end equipment, showcasing the Estelon Forza loudspeakers and the CH Precision L10 Dual Monaural Twin-Chassis Line Preamplifier and M10 Twin-Chassis Power Amplifier. Also present was the brand-new CH Precision D1.5 SACD transport.

With the new DIGITAL IN HD board, the team at CH has managed to further improve the C1's already stellar performance.

How do the CH Precision A1.5 and the Soulution 711 compare in a Magico Q5 system?

The Wilson Benesch Precision Series uses trickle-down technology from the reference line to capture a large part of the essence of the Wilson Benesch sound at a more accessible price point.

The X1 is an ultra-low-noise, high-current, DC-regulated external power supply capable of powering up to two CH Precision units.

Designer Raphael Pasche answers all my questions and shares a bucketload of info about the technical principles behind CH Precision audio products.

The C1 has simply never sounded better than via this new connection. And as a bonus, you get to use the superb Roon interface. It's a win-win!

The L1 is easily the most highly resolving and most transparent preamp that I have heard. Besides, it also excels in terms of functionality, offering more user-selectable parameters than I have ever seen on a preamp before.

With an almost identical form-factor and operational interface (as its predecessor), the D1.5 continues the established CH aesthetic, fitting in perfectly with existing and future systems. However, internally it is a completely different machine, based around our own, all-new, proprietary transport mechanism.

Following the May 2022 Press Release, CH Precision has recently issued the new C1.2, an update of the longer-running C1 DAC. After having my unit updated, I was so impressed with the results that I simply had to share my findings.

Introducing the CH Precision C1.2 DAC/Controller. Same pretty face – all-new heart!

For 700.000 Euros you could get a house, a very nice apartment, a super cool car, or a non-plus-ultra high-end audio system!

Following the introduction of the L10 and M10 amplifiers, CH Precision is proud to announce the release of the partnering phono-stage, the new P10.

Ever wonder what spending extra on the next level DAC from the same company gets you? Let's find out by directly comparing all the DACs that Denafrips currently has on offer.

The Master 2H mono amplifiers amplify the whole truth and nothing but the truth but they combine their truthfulness with a very high level of refinement, fluidity and finesse to make for a performance that is not only spectacularly neutral but also highly natural, rhythmically infectious and hugely involving. Oh, and these amps also double their output with every halving of the impedance. Intrigued yet? You should be!

For this review, I am covering four GigaWatt power cables: three models from the new PowerSync range and one from the longer-standing EVO range. Read on to find out how they compare!
