    Own the LRS+ with REL sub along with the Eversolo A6 Master addition. What an amazing combination for a 2400 sq ft town house. I thought great sound was not possible after moving and selling ML threos along with Mac mono blocks! Boy was I wrong!

    Hi Adrian, I really love these last videos. Thanks for sharing your experiences and sincere opinions, it helps a lot to know better the industry and hobby. They are very informative and fun to watch :) You have talked about newer versions of speakers significantly bettered previous versions (Sonus Faber and Wilson Audio) and knowing is usually kind of expected, I am curious if you can do a video of the opposite situations: when the older version was in fact better. I have several amps, sources and speakers, some more than 20 years old and some are indeed so good that it feels that one can’t get more performance out of that design… The bottom end is: is newer gear always better? Are brands always improve? Thanks once again :)

    Happy New Year To All: Adrian, thank you for this year end equipment wrap up. Here in N.J. I have never heard of Wilson speakers until seeing them on your channel. I personally think they are UGLY as all get out & I don't want them in my home however, Sonos Farber's are the upmost in elegance & the sound just wants to make you want to melt. Thank you again & HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU, YOUR FAMILY & YOUR CREW. TMP from N.J.

    Thanks for the video again. But I wander why you don’t mention Hegel anymore as being Hegel distributor as well. And especially Hegel’s new H600. I got in mind you didn’t like it h600 and don’t wanna lie saying it’s a great product. My friend sold his h590 and pre ordered h600 and when it arrived he was very disappointed even with a burn in time. He says h590 sounded better a lot better

    You don’t know what you talking about. That video wasn’t about Hegel. That was only about sale on h190 model. If you follow hegel and more of his videos you would understand that previously they did a lot about hegel videos,but none lately. Especially when now Hegel released new flagship H600 and H600 got EISA 2023/24 award and Adrian doesn’t even mention it. A lot of people that I know sais H600 is not as good as media/adverts are saying about it. I wonder what Adrian gotta say about it 🤔

    Adrian has done a Good Bad and Ugly on D'Agsotino and Wilson, if he didn't like it I think he would not be afraid to say it. I think there have been so many products in the store and new products he has not had the chance. Also in this market, they are more likely to buy a McIntosh or now and Accuphase integrated. I have been to his store many times, he usually tops out at the 390.

    What you think sounds better the old stradivardi or new g2 hou said you owned the old ones, just curious because sonus faber has cut costs now owned by macintosh They dont jse high end expensive drivers nl more and the olympia models that replaced the cremonas m dont sound as good as cromona M's and more money , macintosh spends their money on advertising instead of quality products and research now .

    Don't be so quick to judge. Recently he's done a whole slow of "The Good the bad and the ugly videos", where he's quite critical of the products he sells. In addition, for years now he's had round table chats with his employees, where they, more often than not, will slag on products they sell. Trust me
