High-End

When it comes to audiophile-grade hi-fi, few names carry the same weight as Linn. And now, with the launch of the all-new Klimax Solo 500, the Scottish manufacturer has taken everything it knows about world-class amplification and created its finest compact monoblock amp to date.

Since their hey day in the 60s and 70s the turntable has gone through several design iterations from ingenious designs that informed the modern record player of today, to the ‘out there’ creations that belong in art galleries.

Linn’s Majik DSM has been around since 2012, leading the way in high-end, all-in-one systems. Its latest iteration introduces the styling of Linn Klimax and Selekt DSM, but is a whole lot more than just a facelift. Majik DSM/5 doesn’t just raise the bar in its category, it elevates it to a currently unassailable position, both in sound and build quality. It is one serious piece of kit.

OLED technology continues to set the standard for premium TVs, and LG’s latest 2025 G5 series takes it to a new level.

Packed with significant upgrades over last year’s G4, the LG G5 OLED lineup offers improved brightness, faster processing, enhanced gaming performance, and smart features that elevate your home entertainment experience. If you’re looking for one of the best OLED TVs of 2025, the LG G5 is a must-see.

Investing in a high-end hi-fi system can be a serious financial commitment. But do expensive systems truly deliver better sound, or are you just paying for premium materials and marketing? 

What can we say about McIntosh Labs? Perhaps the most distinguishable hifi brand: instantly recognisable illuminated, green logo and contrasting blue, oscillating VDU meters create the McIntosh ‘face’… or smile.

We’ve been really impressed with Marantz MODEL 10 integrated amplifier since receiving it recently and so are excited to now add the 10 Series source products– Link 10n streamer and SACD 10.

Few names in hifi command the adulation, loyalty and universal respect of QUAD (Quality Amplifier Domestic). It’s long and distinguished history is littered with pivotal products and technologies in amplification and electrostatic loudspeakers, and a reputation for outstanding build quality and durability.

Welcome to Peter Tyson’s first Denon product blog. What kept us? Good question; how very remiss of us to miss out this Centurian of AV.

You may be of an age to remember ‘Horizon’, the BBC go-to documentary series exploring all things scientific, futuristic and otherwise mysterious. Apparently, it’s still on BBC2… perhaps we’ll see its namesake – Marantz Horizon - featured soon; it certainly fits the bill.
