Bryston A2 Loudspeakers $3810 Per Pair (39.5h, 9.25w, 17d, 62 lbs!) Just in is the latest version of the mighty Bryston A2 speakers. For openers, A2 is made in Canada. Here’s a warning though, the warranty is only 20 years. A2 has been a DYNAMITE speaker since its inception not quite a decade ago. Using DUAL sets of tweets/mids/woofs, A2 is a FORCE to be dealt with. Most speakers use a single mid and tweet. While that’s adequate for most speakers, A2 goes above and beyond.

Hegel H-120 Integrated Amp ($3000, 75×2) (4h, 17.25w, 11.75d, 28 lbs of DYNAMITE!) Hegel’s new integrated will flat out BLOW YOU AWAY for its price point! H-120 is soooo stinkin’ good that I don’t know exactly how to describe it. But try, I will. First of all, I want to make clear that I think the new H-120 achieves a new plateau for its price point. To my ears, H-120 is the least expensive integrated that sends you sailing into the BIG TIME of esoteric audio electronics performance. H-120 will make almost any speaker sound significantly more detailed and refined.

Peachtree Integrated Amplifiers & Power Amp Peachtree is back in Da House! Peachtree has made significant upgrades in its products over the years that float my boat- so I’m back on board. First and foremost is, PT offers tons more power than anybody else for a given buck. There are precious few speakers that won’t benefit from more power! The products are in a small form factor. It’s easy to find a place for them and they don’t run hot. And get this, they’re made in North America now, not the Far East! The warranty is 3 years new, so
