Hi-Fi reviews & products

The JBL Authentics 300 is a rockstar throwback – handsome, brash and very hard to ignore.

Esoteric’s K-05XD SACD/CD player proves that playing physical media remains truly rewarding.

Already have an amplifier with onboard DAC? This rather lovely CXC transport slots neatly into an existing system.

SPL’s Diamond DAC is a well-built, straight-forward design that’s versatile and sounds good.

The Neutron/Graviton pairing distils Leema’s high-end DNA into a more accessible package.

These tiny boxes deliver a hugely talented performance that prioritises the rhythm and cohesion of music rather than pure analysis.

The 603 S3 have a lot to live up to, and B&W has mostly delivered with a pair of floorstanders that stand confidently on their own four feet.

A good sounding and sensibly-priced MM/MC phono stage that works well with a wide range of cartridges.

Tannoy’s Stirling III LZ Special Edition high-end stereo speakers promise much but fail to deliver.

Updated KEF’s second-generation compact streaming system is here, impressing us with fantastic sound, extensive streaming smarts and stylish, compact design.
