BLOG #56. RMAF-2018 - The Path of the Least Resistance: Shorting Down a Heavenly Access to the Ground of an Earthly Possession
"... the vast majority of the visitors come to the audio shows now simply because, instead of obsessively working to gain an "Access to Musical Heaven", the current audiophile community gradually replaced that long work with a short circuit to the ground of being too possessed over such a mundane and down-to-earth deed as an anticipation of a next cycle of not conscious – and that’s why - absolutely meaningless "Possession"".

To quote: “The SB-5 is … a stunning vocal specialist… [with] that laser-like focus on vocal delivery…

headfonia.com published a review of StereoPravda SPearphone SB-7
To quote: “What an experience the SPearphone SB-7 has been. The SB-7 certainly is a one of a kind creation by a unique designer, that’s the least one can say…
… Misha’s “No pain, no Gain” philosophy is what it is but if you can handle that you can be sure to get an incredibly good high-end sounding IEM with a sound signature you’ve never heard before. A technical marvel.
Well done StereoPravda”.

BLOG #51. A Quick Reminder on Our Seminal Moment
To commemorate our third anniversary one more time we would like to refresh everybody’s memory here on that seminal interview that I gave to my dear friend Gary Reber, The Editor-In-Chief of Widescreen Review magazine, in 2015.

BLOG #48. Reference-Audio-Analyzer.pro Just Published New Sets of Measurements of StereoPravda SPearphone SB-5/SB-7/SB-7A Family of Earphones
As I mentioned on numerous occasions before, the earphone technology based on “passive” implementation of historically happened nomenclature of the current BA-drivers – which is practically unchanged for more than several decades – and even in its multi-way incarnation, allows to build only: either high resolution products, or wide frequency band products (I am talking mostly about low end extension here). But not both at the same time. The only way to “have your cake and to eat it” is via application of a multi-way “active” configuration of separate BA-driver sections, where each earphone section has got some necessary adjustments on the board and is driven but its own separate amplifier. And the latter is exactly what is happening when our SB-7A are driven by our dedicated differential DAC/Control audio processor/two-way separate Amplifiers-in-one DACCA unit. Read more…

BLOG #46. The Doom of Constant Anticipation – Some Personal Impressions from Munich High End Show-2018
...if that surrogate anticipation buzz for “something new” is not dethroned, and if it is not replaced with some clear-cut pathways to the sonic Nirvana - which were fully established a long time ago but seemed to be forgotten by now - the High End Audio community is all doomed to no more than just to roll endlessly its “Sisyphus stones” up to the steep hills of its members’ personal ambitions.

"...during this total technological capabilities’ side transition time – when “the ball” will be in the hands of the customers’ – and not the manufacturers’ – team, we should put all our expectations for some alleged “new” products on hold.
But after that monumental task is accomplished, the next task to provide some appropriate means to uncork audio enthusiasts’ own personal potential for greatness and to satisfy their genuine “crave” – the means which would exploit all 100% of the available technologies’ potential – this next task will be just a trivial one".

"...The SB-7 is the most reference and technically the most accurate sounding IEM I have reviewed for 2017…

If boutique is to survive and if we want this crazy hobby of ours to continue to amaze then more fascinating and brilliant sounding products like the SB-7 are the key".
