In This Issue....
Many New Reviews And Food For Thought
The Future's So Bright We Have To Wear Shades!
Article By Steven R. Rochlin

  Must say this issue is packed with many great articles. Of course you want to hear about all the delicious equipment reviews right..... this..... moment! First up is our review of Cary's new and amazing Audio Electronics Constellation tubed pre, which is a real stunner for the money. Then we have two EL-84 based integrated amplifiers with the Triode Lab EL84TT and visually elegant Eryk S Concept Red King. Our friends at TAS bring you the beautiful Nola Contender speaker and outrageously good Ortofon MC Anna moving-coil cartridge. Hi-Fi+ has the Marten Django L loudspeaker and Electrocompaniet EMP3 Blu-ray/universal disc player. Next up is Hi-Fi World with a great article on streaming music from your computer plus we publish one of their older articles concerning the legendary Garrard 401 turntable! Lastly we have HIFICRITIC with the Bully Sound BSC-60s stereo amp and a revisit of their 100m monoblock plus Paul Messenger chimes in concerning loudspeakers.

Ok, admit i went a bit bonkers in the Lifestyle And Deign section with some very high-priced items. For fountain pen aficionados, the just released Porsche Design P'3135 Solid is relatively reasonably priced. If we then take a look at the mind-blowing MWE Lab Emperor 200 Computer Workstation, with equally mind-numbing price, it makes me wish for a higher office budget. For those of us who grew up around the 70's, you're going to simply grin ear-to-ear at the Green Machine. Imaging reliving your childhood as an adult with a 'toy' equally as grown up!

With all that said, there is a distinct theme in the many think pieces within this month's issue of Enjoy the Music.com's Review Magazine. Each of this pieces is well worth your time! You'll  also notice we have two very well-respected 'visiting' writers chiming in! Instead of stating the obvious, will list the titles of said think pieces below.

My Memo To The Industry

The last one, My Memo To The Industry, was actually released mid-June; with record-setting e-mail and PMs on Facebook, Twitter, various discussion board, etc. Thank you everyone for your great ideas; they have been many and staggering! In fact it looks as though I created a job while working at a job. It is also interesting to note who has chimed in, and who has not to date... and the inner few who have told me some very interesting going-ons within the industry.

Well, that about sums it up for now. Soon the wife and I are off to meet someone very influential within certain industries. Like they say, you never regret getting the very best. And as we all know high-end audio is the very best there is to achieving the ultimate in musical pleasures. Because you deserve the very best! As always, in the end what really matters is that you...

 

Enjoy the Music,
