Primacy and Basic, two sides of a social experiment charged with spending your money. Primacy, the side I reviewed last year, has recently been updated. It is called New Primacy.

Meze 12 Classics Gun Metal Review
Sound Which brings us where Lieven ultimately wants me: talking about sound. Let’s start listening impressions screwed into a pair of Comply tips, followed by some words about silicon.

Nuforce HEM4 High Resolution In-ear Headphones Review
Nuforce HEM4 is a high resolution in ear headphones. Each HEM series earphone is such a blast, such a brilliant take on an under-represented audio niche that I’m having a bugger of a time finding much about which to whinge and quibble.
