ONEIROS acoustic systems are an example of a combination of engineering excellence and extraordinary approaches to audio. The speaker bodies are made of genuine monocoque 100% carbon fibre composite – exactly the same as that used to produce an F1 car.
The drivers are no less interesting. The bass is provided by 2 x 10” proprietary multi-layer inverted parabolic Twaron graphene nano-composite woofers with 3” voice coil and dual suspension. Excursion reaches 50 mm, and the magnetic system alone weighs 8.2 kg. The midrange frequencies are voiced by a pair of 3” proprietary Dyneema graphene composite domes with single-layer ribbon CCAW underhung voice coil drivers, and the high frequencies are handled by a 1” CVD diamond dome tweeter.
The signal path uses only High End components – capacitors Mundorf MCap SUPREME EVO SilverGold.Oil, inductors Mundorf MCoil CF 70μm copper foil and resistors Mundorf MResist ultra HS 30W. Internal wiring is made of 651 x 0.07 mm OFC copper wire, TPE CL-free insulation.

Woo Audio has unveiled the anniversary version of the Woo Audio WA24 20th Anniversary Edition reference tube headphone amplifier. Each element of the WA24 20th Anniversary Edition has been carefully selected to achieve the highest sound quality. The amplifier is based on four custom-made 3A/109E vacuum triodes with medium gain and direct heating, chosen for their low noise and durability. The single-ended topology of the amplifier provides the highest gain, and the oversized output transformer - the highest power and dynamic range for even the most complex headphones.
The Italian company Gold Note has introduced the Diana line of acoustic systems – modular acoustics that combine excellent sound and configuration flexibility. The Gold Note Diana series is designed for audiophiles looking for versatility – the line includes configurable bookshelf and floorstanding models.
The Japanese company TAD (Technical Audio Devices Laboratories), 9 years after the launch of the ME1 bookshelf speakers, has released an updated version with the ME1TX index. The new model under the name has rethought drivers and a number of improvements.
Pro-Ject has introduced a compact stereo power amplifier Pro-Ject Amp Box RS2. A distinctive feature of the new product is the use of a pair of vacuum tubes and the ability to switch the model to a bridged mode.
