In this episode of the Darko.Audio podcast, Srajan Ebaen and I go deeper than the press release into six new products landing in the head-fi and hi-fi spaces: a high-end modular streamer and CD transport from AURALiC, a Class A headphone amplifier from Aune, a compact 2.1 speaker array from Zu Audio, directional floorstanding loudspeakers from T+A, a single output DDC from LAiV and a Bluetooth/USB DAC with a twist from FiiO.
