Since I was content with the sound in the Main Setup, it was time to accommodate the video section to the new situation. As it would turn out, beamer issues would lead to the start of a new Secondary Audio Setup / Cinema Room.

In the initial NuPrime AMG review, I have focused mainly on the AMG-STA power amplifier. For this second installment, I have been sent a second AMG-STA power amplifier so that I can use a pair in mono-mode as well as an AMG-PRA analog preamplifier to round off the NuPrime system.

The AMG STA not only addresses all of the ST-10's weaker areas but actually raises the overall quality to such an extent that it comfortably positions itself among high-end competitors that cost multiples upon multiples.

With each of the two channels powered by its own transformer and extra capacitance, the available power has doubled. But if you ask me, the extra power is not the amplifiers' biggest selling point, rather, it's the increased sound quality across the board.

Smooth and seductive, organic, big and powerful, and utterly realistic - the Zesto system does it all.

NuPrime Evolution One
premium
The Evolution Ones sound crisp and clear yet richly textured and timbrally natural, with excellent focus and a reach-out-and-grasp solidity to objects within the soundstage along with a level of lifelike purity and directness that is quite rare.

Ayon Scorpio and S-3 Junior
premium
The Scorpio has a pleasant ripeness but without sounding warm. In fact, it sounds purer and more lifelike than various other tube amps that I tried. It is my new reference in its price class, and considerably beyond.

Gustavson Audio LS-One

When hearing the Gustavson LS-One at the X-fi show in Veldhoven 2017, I noticed how easy it was to relax into the music and not worry about traditional audiophile technicalities.

Analog Domain M75D and M75P
premium
Both the M75D integrated and M75P power amp are fast-paced and articulate, highly detailed, incredibly rhythmic and dynamic and lifelike, with power to spare.

The new Bryston sound is generous, smooth, rich and relaxed, yet very powerful, driving all the speakers that I tried with ease. Even audiophiles with a larger budget might be pleasantly surprised!

Wilson Sabrina

Shapely and compact, the latest Wilsons are a visual treat and sound way bigger than their small dimensions would suggest.
