Krix has introduced a new design focused evolution of two of its most successful Hi-Fi models with the launch of the Evara range, a compact loudspeaker line created for modern living spaces where sound quality needs to coexist with décor, limited space and everyday use. The Evara family debuts with the Equinox Evara bookshelf speaker and the Seismix 1 Evara subwoofer, combining the established acoustic performance of their predecessors with a more contemporary visual identity intended to make it easier to integrate a serious stereo or TV system into apartments, shared homes and lifestyle oriented listening areas.

Perlisten entered the hi-fi market in a way that surprised many - suddenly, yet with clear ambition. Its debut was far from accidental, led by seasoned engineers and managers with decades of experience in transducers, measurement systems, and loudspeaker design. Co-founder and president Dan Roemer brings over 25 years of industry expertise, including work with the NHT research group, MITek Corporation, and projects in the automotive and aerospace sectors. Lars Johansen, with more than 30 years in audio, has contributed to brands like JBL, Harman Kardon, Klipsch, and Jamo, and later served as partner and president of Miller & Kreisel, supplying solutions for recording studios and premium home theatres. Since its formal launch in 2016, Perlisten has aimed to deliver top-tier products, reflected in its pricing. The introduction of the more accessible A-Series marked a shift, opening the brand to a wider audience. Interest continues to grow, yet many enthusiasts remain unaware of the company's origins, the people behind it, and its long-term objectives. This is why I decided to speak with someone who has been with Perlisten from the start and understands every stage of its development - from early concepts and factory selection to launches and subsequent product lines. Erik Wiederholtz, Perlisten's Technical Director, is an acoustics specialist with experience in transducer modelling, dynamic speakers, MEMS digital microphones, hearing aids, headphones, and small speakers. Our conversation, I believe, will shed light on the company's foundations and help readers understand what Perlisten represents.

Founded in 1998, Amphion has been designing and constructing loudspeakers from the very beginning, distinguished by something that many commercially available designs lack - extremely low sensitivity to imperfections in the acoustics of the listening room. Thanks to well-thought-out technical solutions, the brand's sets can fill any space with high-quality sound, or at least that's what Finnish designers, their foreign representatives, satisfied customers, and installers claim. Not to mention the dozens of musicians and sound engineers who trust Amphion's professional monitors to provide them best results in commercial or home studios and appreciate these monitors for their reliability, transparency, and truthfulness.

IsoAcoustics adds to their award-winning line of isolation products with the Aperta Sub, an isolation stand designed for subwoofers weighing up to 80 pounds (36.3 kg). The Aperta Sub allows the listener to discover greater bass definition from their subwoofer with fewer complaints from their neighbors. The manufacturer explains that we are hard-wired to pick up bass rhythms more than other tones, and low bass frequencies allow the listener to feel a deep syncopated connection to their favorite music or movies. The large pulsating driver produces energy and vibrations that travel through solid structures that create issues in the listening space and can often be disturbing to others. Room treatment can be costly and doesn't mitigate structure borne-noises. Enter the Aperta Sub isolation stand that not only reduces these disturbances but also delivers better-sounding audio.

Bluesound, makers of the award-winning hi-res wireless multi-room line of audio players, announced the Pulse Sub+, an all-new subwoofer addition to the brand's high-performance ecosystem.

The new Bluesound model builds on everything the original Pulse Sub offered and takes it to the next level.
