Shockingly great sound for the money. From Canton.

- By Jim Austin

A Plug for Great Sound

What do you get when you combine a world-class engineering team and cutting-edge R&D with unmatched economies of scale? Loudspeakers that deliver insanely high performance for a fraction of what you'd expect to spend. Introducing the Reference K Series from Canton-Germany's number one loudspeaker company. They boast incredibly innovative, advanced materials and technology to deliver value rarely seen among ultra-high performance loudspeakers.

The Canton engineering team was given a mission. Produce the finest full-range loudspeaker the company has ever built. They succeeded spectacularly incorporating a wealth of proprietary technology-from aluminum cones transformed into a ceramic structure and refined with tungsten particles to a new Bass-Guide® bass reflex system that allows the impact of distance from walls or corners to be greatly minimized. Topping it all off, an extraordinary, high gloss, piano finish surface that's applied and polished in a 12- stage process. Gorgeous.

The Canton Reference K series. Delivering unheard of value that demands to be heard. Be sure to experience them at your local Canton dealer.

"Canton's Reference 7K is a great loudspeaker at an affordable price"

John Atkinson, October 2021, Stereophile Class A Recommended Component

So true!

Doing it for themselves—and for us

Women have undeniably become the most dynamic and vital creative force in music today. Without their good energies and ideas, music, which in the digital age has become more background than art, would be much less interesting and inspiring.

Pablo Records via Granz and Kassem

Way back in my ignorant youth I thought that Pablo Records, the label of jazz producer/promoter legend Norman Granz, was where jazz artists went to fade away, where they were put out to pasture.

The Shanling ET3 CD transport

Costing just $899, Shanling's top-loading ET3 CD transport appears to have been designed by people who recognize the multitude of big and small fails (or lost opportunities) of previous CD transports. In use, the ET3 felt like a distillation of what I've always wanted in a transport: strong, solid, compact, cool-looking, and feels good to use. Everyone knows I like pro-audio cool with no froufrou. This Shanling deck looked so damn smart and felt so good to touch that it kept my mind repeating, \"Yep! That's how a CD transport should be built!\"

CH Precision C10

It takes audacity for a company that already builds one of the finest DACs on the planet, which is already expensive, to set out to build one that's so much better that it warrants an extra digit in the model number and a much higher price tag. But then CH Precision has never lacked audacity.
