Homogenix Gold is a very interesting MC-cartridge for vinyl turntables. The highlight of the system is the body made of year 1512 fir wood, as the company claims, a real treasure, akin to the wood from which Stradivarius violins were made. Homogenix Gold’s incredible sound reproduction capabilities are also achieved by using High End materials in other parts of the cartridge – a sapphire cantilever, a diamond stylus with Micro Ridge sharpening and coils wound with pure 7N copper.
Specifications include 30 dB channel separation, a cartridge impedance of 16 Ohms and an output voltage of 0.22 mV. The recommended tracking force is 2.2g (± 0.3g). The icing on the cake is the exquisite cartridge body shell, made from silver 930 gold plating.

Pro-Ject has introduced a compact stereo power amplifier Pro-Ject Amp Box RS2. A distinctive feature of the new product is the use of a pair of vacuum tubes and the ability to switch the model to a bridged mode.
German company TIDAL presented the floorstanding active acoustics TIDAL AP1. The idea of the new model was born with the launch of the TIDAL x Bugatti project - TIDAL AP1 is designed to transfer the quality of the company's top speakers to a slightly more affordable High End segment.
The Yamaha NS-600A speakers feature balanced and precise sound (thanks to the proprietary Harmonious Diaphragm technology) and an impressive finish of the cabinets, reminiscent of the finish of grand pianos. The Yamaha NS-600A uses innovative RS (Resonance Suppression) chambers located at the rear of the tweeter
Danish acoustic brand Børresen Acoustics, part of Audio Group Denmark, has introduced the floorstanding speakers Børresen M2. Despite its compact dimensions, the model achieves excellent sound quality and offers a whole range of proprietary innovative developments (from a new speaker design to revolutionary methods of resonance damping).
The new AUER ACOUSTICS Versura V4 acoustic systems are designed according to the 3.5-way principle and use 34 mm beryllium dome tweeters, a 12 cm midrange driver and the 18 cm woofer. But the main bass arsenal here is the side-radiating woofer – the 32 cm driver size allows performs from 20 Hz.
