The official history of Audiomica Laboratory brand began in 2005, but its founder, Łukasz Mika, had planned this step several years earlier. As someone who always loved music and was fascinated by the equipment used to reproduce it, he eventually decided to explore the topic of cabling and its impact on the sound of his stereo system. What initially seemed like a harmless curiosity completely captivated him. The differences were clear, and observing them brought Łukasz immense joy. However, what intrigued him even more was the question of why this happened - what factors and design aspects made one cable produce phenomenal sound while another lacked that magic?

The H400 replaces the H390 as Hegel's newest high-value proposition for the customer who wants to drive any speaker, connect any source, and stream any way, without compromising on quality. Hegel's goal has been to create an all-in-one solution that doesn't break the bank and still meets our highest aspirations for audio performance and user friendliness. In our maybe not-so-humble opinion, Norwegians believe they have managed just that. With 250 watts of power, a high-end DAC, and a very advanced streaming section, the H400 only needs a good set of speakers to be a complete audiophile system. Oh, and for the first time ever, we have a Hegel Control App.

The cables have been constructed based on high-quality materials, refined details, and the use of proven company processes and technologies. Their conducting base is made of high-purity, oxygen-free tinned copper.

Four decades after its original debut, the Sound Burger is back in our regular lineup!

Audiophiles love beautiful, original, and, unfortunately, very expensive electronic devices. Turntables made with incredible precision, powerful tube amplifiers, huge loudspeakers, thick cables - we associate all this with a sophisticated, engaging sound, but there is no doubt that above a certain level all this fun begins to smell of madness. This is perfectly evident at exhibitions, where one can taste the sound of stereo systems worth millions of dollars. Some visitors get the impression of participating in a sick experiment. The degree of complexity of such extreme systems, as well as their dimensions and prices, have a repulsive effect on music lovers. Besides, let's be honest, when visiting a showroom with such equipment, didn't you ever think to yourself that at such prices you'd better start looking elsewhere? Didn't you come to the conclusion that even if you got such a set for free, you wouldn't have anywhere to put it? Some companies have recognized this problem, but their solution is most often to put the dream of owning a decent stereo completely out of your head. Don't have lots of cash to spend on your hi-fi? Then get some small network speakers or a soundbar and sod off. And that's not exactly the point, is it?

NAD Electronics announced the new and improved Masters M10 V2 BluOS Streaming Amplifier, which continues its "just add speakers" revolution of Hi-Fi. The M10 V2 features 100 watts per channel of amplification and BluOS streaming capabilities and adds the capability to expand with Dolby Digital Surround decoding, an enclosed IR remote control, and updated gain algorithms. "The original M10 caught the industry off-guard and made audiophiles and non-audiophiles reimagine what hi-fi can and should be. The M10 V2 continues where the first left off and adds even more versatility as a two-channel or potentially a wireless home theatre system." - stated Cas Oostvogel, Product Manager for NAD Electronics. 

Cambridge Audio introduced the Evo S speakers, which are now available to buy in limited quantities and exclusively at the manufacturer's website. As announced at the launch of the Cambridge Audio Evo all-in-one music player, the Evo S speakers have been specifically designed to complement the Evo system and its minimal and timeless aesthetic. Evo S was designed in Cambridge Audio's London HQ with the aim of offering a great-looking and great-sounding option for all living spaces and as a matching pair of speakers for owners of the Evo all-in-one player. They complete the "just add speakers" ethos of Evo. From the black silk dome tweeter to the mid-bass driver, from the anodized aluminum baffle to gold electroplated speaker binding posts, every component of Evo S is designed and constructed to perform at the highest quality.

Cambridge Audio has been at the forefront of British audio innovation for over 50 years and Evo represents an evolution in hi-fi - an all-in-one music player that combines timeless design, cutting edge technology, streaming smarts, and incredible audio performance into one streamlined and compact box. Designed in Cambridge Audio's London studio, Evo's minimal and timeless aesthetic will fit into any interior and lifestyle. Lead designer Ged Martin chose premium materials and used industrial design principles to create a product that champions simplicity and will endure for many years. Taking inspiration from the wood trims of the iconic P40, Cambridge Audio's first ever product from 1968, Evo has beautiful walnut wood side panels that complement the sleek, black anodised aluminium cabinet. Evo also comes with a choice of formed black side panels made from Richlite, an innovative new material made primarily from recycled paper. The side panels can be switched out according to each customer's style. Completing Evo's elegant design is a dual-concentric rotary dial and large 6.8in LCD display panel that shows off album artwork in full colour.

Hegel introduced the H95 integrated amplifier, which replaces the H90 in September. The H90 was a big step for the Norwegian company when launched three years ago. Because of the implementation of the SoundEngine2 module it sounded a great deal better than its predecessor, the H80. As good as the H90 was and still is, its streaming and digital capabilities are slowly becoming obsolete. Hegel's team since designed the H190 and H120. Both of which offer both Spotify Connect, a far more stable UPnP connection as well as upcoming updates making them AirPlay2 compatible.
