PMC has introduced the slim floor-standing Prophecy9 speakers, which can fill quite large rooms. The speakers feature an one-inch dome tweeter and a 55mm soft dome midrange driver — they are installed in an volume with proprietary waveguide technology. In this way, the developers managed to achieve a voluminous and clear vocal sound and an extended range of high frequencies.
A pair of bass woofers (125 mm LTXL mineral cone drivers with cast alloy chassis are used) use Advanced transmission line and LaminairX aerodynamic airflow technology, providing an extended range of low frequencies.

Bang & Olufsen has introduced the third generation of its Beosound A1 portable wireless loudspeaker. The new product has retained the 360-degree sound pattern and aluminum body. The spectacular design, which is offered in three finishes: natural aluminum, honey tone and eucalyptus green, literally attracts the eye.
Burmester, the famous German manufacturer of high-end equipment, begins releasing LPs. The PURE SOUND Master Recordings series opens with the 1964 jazz album Oscar Peterson Trio “We Get Requests”, the record will be released in a limited edition of 33 copies and will be sold for 777 euros.
Soulution has introduced the ultimate vinyl player Soulution 787. The model features linear tracking system with a moving platter and a minimal excursion pivoted tonearm.. Recall that such designs imply the highest tracking accuracy, but have hardly been used until now due to their extreme complexity and high cost (Nakamichi TX-1000 Computing Turntable in 1983-1987 with Absolute Centre Search System offered offered something a little similar - but in that case the tonearm moved, and the platter provided the necessary center shift, corresponding to a specific LP).
The well-known acoustics manufacturer, Monitor Audio, has released three new active subwoofers of the Monitor Audio Vestra series - W10, W12 and W15. All of them are equipped with proprietary speakers with aluminum-magnesium alloy diffusers with a ceramic C-CAM coating with a long-stroke suspension and can develop impressive sound pressure.
For its centennial anniversary, Luxman has released a limited edition of the fully balanced audiophile headphone amplifier Luxman P-100 Centennial.
