The Italian company Unison Research has presented a special version of one of the company's most successful products – the Unison Research Triode 25 integrated amp. This version features an exclusive bronze finish, glossy black front panel and a body made of dark anodized metal.
According to the manufacturer, the Unison Research Triode 25 Black Edition has an optimized amplifier circuit - both in the signal path and in the power supply. The topology of the ground tracks and the physical separation of the channels were carried out with particular care. As far as possible, the audio signal is transmitted via shielded high-quality cables. The amplifier section has an adjustable bias voltage, and the feedback can be adjusted in two positions.
The Unison Research Triode 25 Black Edition integrated amplifier supports two output stage modes - triode and pentode. In triode mode, the amplifier raises a power of up to 30 Wt per channel, and in pentode mode - 50 Wt. The pre-amplification section uses two ECC83 Gold Lion dual triodes and one ECC82 Gold Lion. The output stages uses four KT77 Gold Lion tubes (a pair per channel), operating in push-pull mode. The Unison Research Triode 25 Black Edition integrated amplifier should soon go on sale in Europe at a recommended retail price of 4,299 euros.

Magnat has introduced a new line of Signature acoustics, the series includes three models: two floorstanding ones – Signature 809 and 607, as well as a bookshelf Signature 603. The manufacturer assures that each model is ideally combined with the Signature Center Pro, Atmos ATM 202 acoustics and the Omega CS12 subwoofer, which allows using the speakers both in stereo mode and in the format of multi-channel installations for home theater.
Serbian company Soulines has unveiled the Soulines tt9 turntable, which borrows its technical solutions from the flagship Soulines tt42 model. Vibration control was a priority during development, and as a result, the design was calculated using the Fibonacci sequence and the golden ratio. As a result, the company promises minimal resonance and an open, natural sound.
FiiO has introduced a spectacular portable HD music player FiiO SnowSky Echo Mini – the design of which is inspired by the iconic Sony Walkman cassette players. Moreover, even the control logic and control buttons here coincide with the ancestor. And the color 1.99" IPS display and a resolution of 170 x 320 pixels displays the animation of the playing cassette during playback of digital files.
The British company Origin Live has announced the fifth generation of tonearms for vinyl record turntables Origin Live Mk5. The Origin Live Mk5 tonearm series implements technologies borrowed from more expensive lines, such as a multi-layer counterweight.
The wood-veneered cabinets of the new Wharfedale ASTON bookshelf loudspeakers immediately catch the eye – but “on board” such a strict classic solution is a whole bunch of innovations. The model is equipped with a 6" (150 mm) brand-new Mid/Bass driver with a diffuser made of Carbon Fibre. The driver is mounted in a rigid, cast chassis, which eliminates unwanted resonances as much as possible.
