    This deep desire for immediate, unfiltered sound power - we have only experienced this with power amplifiers that twisted our spine during set-up. There must be a trick behind it, a psychoacoustic twist. But that's not true, our measurement results are clear. It confuses our hearing experience...

    • PositiveVery vital sounding
    • Positivefully symmetrical at a top price
    • NegativePlug-in power supply is OK for the price, but seems a bit puny

    The combination of Pro-Ject's X2 B player with Ortofon Quintet Red and Pro-Ject's DS3 B phono stage was a great advertisement for the "True Balanced" concept. The sound gain with balanced cabling is remarkable - highly recommended.
