home » what's new Since the beginning of this exciting journey in 1971, out in Vancouver, the one constant that runs through all those years is that the worthwhile year has steadily evolved to achieve ever-increasing levels of enjoyment. 2007 promises to be no exception to that rule.   NEW Monitor Audio i-deck plus. We think this is the best iPod sound system ever, featuring AV connections, AM/FM tuner, full remote and aux input.   NEW From Musical Fidelity, the X-T100 tube hybrid integrated amplifier and X-RAYv8 upsampling 24-bit CD player, both with external Triple X power supply. Also here is the X-DACv8 tubed diigital to analog converter with USB input.   NEW Marantz AVR - SR6001, SR7001 and SR8001 now featuring the revolutionary Audyssey auto calibration. For a review, go to pages 67 & 68 of the April/May 2007 issue of The Perfect Vision.   NEW Watt Puppy, the loudspeaker practically synonymous with Wilson Audio, in continuous production since 1988, has entered into its Series 8 iteration with its own bold proclamation: you can have beauty and accuracy. Or more precisely, you can have the visceral and emotive experience of live music, which is the sum of myriad cues—some measurable, others essential to making the hairs on the back of your neck tingle with auditory pleasure.   NEW Marantz embraces an audiophile quality turntable, the TT16S1, with DC servo belt-drive and low coloration tone arm to answer the need for a high performance source component for the analog record. Features include low-resonance high-density acrylic chassis and platter and floarting motor mount construction.   NEW The ModWright SWL 9.0SE Pre-Amp is the first product ro be designed and manufactured from scratch by Dan Wright whose ModWright operation has for years been a leading source of high-quality modifications.

It is easily the best preamplifier in its price range.   NEW Sound Boosters, developed and perfected by Sound Fusion Inc. is a revolutionary, patented Audiophile Quality Passive Damping Device. Placed under each audio or video component such as DVD/CD players, preamplifiers and amplifiers, Sound Booster dramatically improve component performance by eliminating vibrations on micro and macro levels. Sound Boosters can be placed under audio components with the central cylinder facing up or down to find the optimum position for the ultimate neutrality. Sound Boosters comes in a set of four to support component weight up to 60 lbs.   NEW VIBE BUSTER 8, from Sound Vision, is an audiophile quality, adjustable 3/4" O-ringed solid brass spike, which is threaded into a proprietary base molded from specially formulated nylon. To ensure complete neutrality, an O-ring was added and is placed into a special O-ring chamber in the nylon base. The brass spike, nylon base and the O-ring work in conjunction to ensure complete elimination of vibration in any point of adjustment.   NEW Sound Fusion’s Universal CD Platform SF-79 was developed to be used for all CD players but can be also used with turntables, pre-amplifiers, receivers, etc. The vibrations occurring during the operation of any component placed on this platform will be minimized, dramatically enhancing component performance. When used with a CD player or a turntable, the platform extends and tightens low frequencies, takes out harshness of high frequencies and dramatically increases transparency, dynamic range, imaging and sound stage.   NEW Marantz's new VP11S1 1080P DLP Projector will no doubt set the bar for High Definition DLP projectors. Using the newest technology available from Texas Instruments, the VP-11S1 more than doubles the onscreen pixel count yielding the highest available resolution of all Home Theater devices on the market. The picture is razor sharp, evenly illuminated and focused from edge to edge; the colors are accurate, pure and fully saturated for breathtaking realism.   NEW The Marantz IS201 iPod docking station allows easy and attractive integration of any iPod to your home audio system.
