What we took
home this month.
Elena Marchettispeakers & amplification · 9 years here
"DeVore Fidelity O/93. 93dB sensitive, run by a 7W SET amp. I fell asleep to Astral Weeks at 2am and it's ruined me for anything clinical."
Jalen Oseicameras & film · 4 years here
"Ricoh GR IIIx. 40mm equivalent, pocketable, snap-focus. Took it to Mexico City for a week and shot 2,100 frames. Best $1,100 I've spent in years."
Cordelia Finnheadphones & desktop · 3 years here
"Meze 109 Pro + iFi Zen CAN. Under $1,200 complete. Warm but not hazy, good for long WFH days. I've had mine on since September."
Hernán Arteagarepair bench · 23 years fixing hi-fi
"Nakamichi BX-300 for $385 off the used wall. I refurbished it on a Saturday. Records Type II tape better than my brand-new Teac. Buy vintage, friends."
