Cambridge Audio has released an improved version of its famous network integrated amplifier – this month the Cambridge Audio EVO 150 SE will go on sale. The device uses Class D amplification based on NCOREx “Tuned by Cambridge” modules and delivers 2 x 150 watts to 8 ohm speakers. The amplifier is equipped with a built-in digital-to-analog converter based on the advanced ESS Technology Sabre ES9018K2M chip.
The proprietary StreamMagic fourth-generation streaming platform provides built-in Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, Qobuz, Deezer, Amazon Music, Roon Ready certification and UPnP-connection via Ethernet or Wi-Fi and a USB Audio port. Bluetooth aptX HD, AirPlay 2 and Google Cast are not forgotten: as well as a built-in MM phono preamplifier.
The Cambridge Audio EVO 150 SE features a 6.8” colour display that can display album art or metering. The Cambridge Audio EVO 150 SE network integrated amplifier will be available in July 2025 for a suggested retail price of €2,399 / $3,299.

European Audio Team (EAT) has released a new EAT F-Dur turntable, which is in many ways an upgrade of the well-known Forte S model. The new turntable weighs a solid 44 kg and sports aluminum anti-vibration supports with TPE damping.
Moondrop has released the Moondrop Horizon headphones – the new product is equipped (unlike previous planar models) with a dynamic ULT driver with a diameter of 50 mm, an inclined system arrangement and a dual-magnet design.
Moondrop has introduced new isodynamic headphones Moondrop Para 2. The use of a very large isodynamic driver with a diameter of 100 mm with FDT (Full-Drive Technology) and an ultra-thin 1.2 µm membrane etched from pure silver allowed to create a very impressive model.
Music First Audio has introduced the new Music First Audio LP 103 LCR phonostage – a highly flexible model, ideal for working with both moving magnet (MM) and moving coil (MC) cartridges.
For its 30th anniversary, AVID has released a new turntable, the AVID Relveo – the device sports a new conical suspension system for better vibration suppression and a dual-belt drive.
