Bright Star's Isonods are for customers with two types of pursuits. Type 1: your turntable is skipping when you walk by and you need to take further measures of isolation. Type 2: you want to tweak your system if every way possible in order to get the highest level of performance from it. Isonods not only prevent vibration-related skipping, but they also will also yield more quiet backgrounds and heightened clarity. Their effect is most profound on turntables, but they're also effective for CD players, amps and speakers.

For more than 30 years Dynavector's Moving Coil cartridges have continuously enjoyed worldwide acclaim due to a combination of innovative design, advanced production techniques and an unwavering commitment to the musical source. Over the same period many new formats such as Compact Disc, MP3, SACD and DVDA have come to dominate music reproduction. However many audiophiles consider that these digital mediums leave much to be desired when compared to analogue recordings.

Consumers and the recording companies remain confused as to which digital medium will become the standard and in the meantime the vast heritage of recorded music, spanning almost a century, is placed in jeopardy.

Fortunately Dynavector have never capitulated to the giant digital industry and have continued to refine their unique range of MC cartridges, providing music lovers with the highest standard of music reproduction that matches or surpasses any digital source.

Leading the charge is the legendary Dr Tominari's last stroke of genius, the XV-1. This unique masterpiece was superb in its original form and the refinements added to the XV-1s, herald a whole new generation of cartridge performance..

At any price point, the audiophile can be guaranteed that a Dynavector MC cartridge will both move and excite the listener to new heights of listening pleasure. A pleasure for many that comes only from a genuine analogue source.

E.A.R. is the brainchild of Tim de Paravicini, whose name has been associated since the 1970s with electronics of the highest fidelity. De Paravicini's innovative techniques have not only borne fruit in products for E.A.R., but in designs for some of the world's most highly regarded electronics manufacturers. Some of these designs have been continually prized--and sought--by discerning listeners for decades after their introduction.

Tim de Paravicini has also made unique contributions to the world of professional recording and mastering. Users of his tape recording systems, microphones, and other recording technology include performers Pink Floyd and Lenny Kravitz, and the Altarus and Water Lily record labels. One of the world's highest-ranked mastering facilities, The Exchange in London, uses two playback systems in which the entire chain--from tape machines and equalizers to cutter amplifiers and monitoring equipment--is E.A.R.-designed and built.

E.A.R. amplifiers are unequalled in their ability to deliver a pure rendition of the signal fed into them, free from the colorations and distortions of most amplifiers. Tim de Paravicini has been instrumental in investigating the role of ultrasonic resonances in amplifier circuits and their effect on transient response. He has also undertaken significant original research on the subjective effects of distortion. This research has not only facilitated the interpretation of amplifier measurements, but has shed light upon the correlation between measurements and sound quality. The results are easy to appreciate - E.A.R. amplifiers are among the most accurate amplifiers ever made.

EAT (Euro Audio Team) is a relatively young company already making a shocking impression on tube lovers. We've sold many of these tubes, and our customers are consistently enamored with how good their tube gear can sound. Expect lively, dynamic, and natural sounding results.

Originally founded by Robin Marshall and introduced to the hi-fi market in 1983, Epos continues to be one of those loudspeakers people aspire to own. Epos has built its reputation as one of the finest hi-fi loudspeaker systems available today, the expansion of the range to include center channels, rear speakers and subwoofers guarantees that Epos will become equally sought after in the fast expanding world of home cinema.

Epos loudspeakers and Creek amplifiers are among the best in the industry, and together, provide synergy beyond the listener's wildest expectations. Matching an amplifier and a pair of speakers can be tricky, but with a Creek/Epos combo, all the work has been done for you. Mike Creek has always been able to provide wonderful sounding equipment at prices much lower than the competitors, and the current line is no exception. Simply put - you can spend twice as much and not get near the sound quality these amplifiers and speakers provide. We've been steadily listening to these amps and speakers for some time now, so we're quite familiar with them - and their competitors. That in mind, please call with any questions, we'll be glad to offer full support.

"GutWire Audio Cables was founded on one simple principle: Our products retrieve what is on the recording; no adding or subtracting from the signal. We firmly believe in the superior sound of cold-welding (a.k.a. crimping) in the termination process. During our research process, 10 out of 10 times, we found our listening panel voting unanimously toward cold-welding terminated cables. Cables that are terminated with cold welding offer the following benefits: well-defined soundstage, maximum dynamics, real-life midrange and amazing 3D imaging…just to name a few." Gutwire

"Transparency is so much more than just low distortion. It is that rare and special ability of an exceptional piece of audio equipment to get out of the way of the performance and allow the listener to really hear the expression, emotion, and subtlety of each individual performer amidst the complexity and crescendo of the orchestra and chorus. The touch and feel of each instrument becomes profoundly clear - the foundation and the soul of the performance. There should be no equipment bias as to the type of music be it contemporary, jazz, rock, classical, and other forms of musical expression. All qualities of the music should be correctly presented to the listener as performed and recorded." -Keith Herron

JA Michell represents some of the most rigid, finely machined turntables available. They are stunning in fit and finish, and more impressive still is their sonic performance. One of the most important functions of a high-end turntable is to provide a platform on which stylus can trace the groove free of external resonance and vibration. Through intelligent design and precise machining, JA Michell turntables are free of internal resonance and are extremely well isolated. What this amounts to a spectacular sounding deck.

”Monster Cable Products, Inc. was founded in 1979 by Noel Lee, who was then a laser-fusion design engineer at Lawrence-Livermore Laboratory, as well as an audiophile and professional drummer. Lee discovered that wires of different constructions produced varying degrees of audio performance when hooked up to loudspeakers. From this discovery, he developed a high performance speaker cable, named it Monster Cable, and literally created an industry. The invention of Monster Cable created a new product category that revolutionized the audio market. Prior to Monster Cable, most stereo systems were wired with ordinary "zip-cord," the same cable used for electrical household and lamp wire. Their inferior construction and cheap materials restricts power, dynamic range and clarity in the lows, mids, and highs.” –Monster

Vacuum tube audio amplifiers have long been recognized by the audio community as providing significantly better sonics than solid state transistor-based designs. Unfortunately, well designed vacuum tube products are much more expensive to produce than their solid state counterparts. As a result, this superior technology has only been available to a small but fortunate group of audio enthusiasts. Enter Rogue Audio.

Our amplifier designs combine the finest in tube-circuit topology with meticulously engineered circuit layout to achieve superior performance. Unflagging attention to the integrity of the audio signal path and power supplies results in truly superior designs. The most discriminating audiophile will delight in the impeccable fidelity of recordings reproduced through our amplifiers.

The matchless quality of Rogue amplifiers is obvious at first glance. However, Rogue’s quality is not just skin deep. Ultra-high tolerance components, two-ounce copper circuit boards, and silver plated switches are just a few of the many features which separate Rogue products from the competition. Our amplifiers have been designed to be extremely reliable. Electronic components are rated far beyond their intended use, and only the highest quality components are incorporated into our designs. The rugged aluminum chassis are treated to resist scratching and corrosion and the machined aluminum faceplate and knobs are anodized to protect their appearance.

At Rogue Audio, we believe that a truly great performing amplifier should dress the part. And from the heavy aluminum faceplate and knobs to the gold connectors in the rear, Rogue amplifiers speak to the audiophile’s aesthetic sense. Our expressive appearance is the brainchild of world class industrial designers who have created a perfect unity of form and function. The sophisticated styling and elegant lines of our amplifiers are intended to please the upscale tastes of high-end devotees.

High-end amplifiers typically command stratospheric prices. Rogue Audio was founded on the belief that great amplifiers can be designed and manufactured at affordable prices. Rogue products provide outstanding value with performance that rivals the very best amplifiers at any price. Our amplifiers are engineered using a quality-by-design philosophy, and every one of our components is hand assembled and tested by highly skilled technicians and engineers. The confidence we have in our products is evidenced by a generous warranty that is certain to please today’s quality-conscious consumer.

Shelter cartridges and step-up transformer are made by Mr. Ozawa, a former employee of Fidelity Research. For those too young to remember Fidelity, this company thrived during the seventies an eighties, making wonderful tonearms and cartridges that were renowned all over the world. Hence, Yasuo Ozawa has a strong background in cartridge design and in 1986, he left to establish Shelter. Yasuo Ozawa holds the notion that music, in its purest form, is art. Instead of believing that a phono cartridge is a mechanical device for music reproduction, Yasuo feels in his heart that his cartridges are indeed a musical instrument in their own right.

Stanton has been making history in the turntablist world with our industry standard setting cartridges for 59 years. Beginning with the release of the first ever microgroove phono cartridge in 1948 under the Pickering name (yep, that's us too), we have pioneered more stylus and cartridge technology than any other manufacturer to date. After over a half century of focus and tweaking, we bring you the finest line of Stanton cartridge models ever made. Infused with all of Stanton's world famous patents and groundbreaking technology, then designed with our edgy DJ style, you've got to get your hands on these needles to experience this level of quality.
