[전시회] stello 100 series, AXPONA2013에서 호평 (stereophile)

By John Atkinson • Posted: Mar 13, 2013

This modest system in the April Music room actually sounded like music. Solus 2-way speakers (sorry, didn"t note the price) were being driven by the new Stello S100 50Wpc power amplifier ($1200) and Stello HP100 D/A preamplifier/headphone amplifier, all wired with Verastarr cables. The Stello components are nicely finished and use enclosures manufactured in California, though final assembly is in Korea. Only disappointment was that the HP100 uses the Burr-Brown PCM2705 USB audio chip, which is limited to 16-bit data with a sample rate up to 48kHz and operates in the less-than-optimal adaptive mode.
