    Aries Cerat put a spell on Wolf von Langa speakers

    Good things come to those who can wait, I firmly believe in this maxima. After painful several months Aries Cerat goodies started coming to Sofia. First was Aperio, the latest integrated amp from Ianus series. Single stage, TriodeFet technology. One tube each channel only, 9,000 hours life, so...

    Save the best for last or how Stavros shot me in the heart - Talos LE phono stage

    Hello, Talos LE phono preamp entered our shop yesterday afternoon. After I missed to blow it up, thank to Stavros bulletproof or more likely idiot proof design of AC components, I lost my mind , my heart and soul . This is most amazing AC component I have listened to in our shop or in fact the...

    Audio Nirvana - First you must enter the Hell, work your way out and then you deserve a place in Audio Paradise - my journey w Talos Ref phono stage

    Audio nirvana - reward for those entering the Hell, only to set up and tune and experiment endlessly to eventually make it I suspected my tango dance with Talos Ref won’t be easy as with other components, but that desperate and difficult, you can easily give up and listen to one of the...

    More black is even more beautiful - Aries Cerat Impera II / Concero Ref 65 with Wolf von Langa Son and Chicago

    Impressed to say at least, by the tests with AC Genus and WVL speakers, I went early to work and started new tests with Impera II preamp and Concero Ref 65, driving WVL Son / Chicago. I had great expectations, but result surpassed them in a fabulous way. The Son sounded like bigger speaker with...

    Black is beautiful - Aries Cerat Genus with Wolf von Langa Son / Chicago

    Black is back, with a vengeance. Earlier attempts to match AC with Wolf von Langa speakers were fruitless. Perfect pair on paper, mediocre in reality. People who know me well, recognize I never give up. So, I patiently waited for Genus ( nick name Genius ) to arrive, I have faith it will make it...

    Glorious integrated revolution - Genus from Aries Cerat

    Well, nothing prepared me for Genus. I knew it is good, I knew it is excellent, I have heard it is killer amp, yet nothing compares to listening. How come this “little” baby sounds this extraordinary !? This really is end game amplifier for many, for most audiophiles on a budget. So real, so...

    Concero Ref 65 monoblocks - golden ratio within Aries Cerat range

    Another AC beauty - Concero 65 arrived in Sofia. As usually it was connected within hours to nice system - Helene, Impera II, YG Anat III Signature speakers. I have experienced AC LE electronics with those speakers. Best sound from YG we got. Again and again every new AC product proves...

    Story of two preamps - Incito S and Impera II

    While waiting for Talos LE to make our demo LE system complete, we received Impera II and Incito S preamps. What a joy: the former joined MSB DIamond IV DAC, Thales Compact II TT, Thoeress phono, Lamm ML 2.0 monos ( twenty years old, smoked 10 set of tubes ), Wolf von Langa Son speakers. Impera...

    Oh my, oh my - Aries Cerat Helene DAC

    I can't stay silent - today we received Helene DAC, "baby" DAC from Aries Cerat. What a baby, what a beauty. From the very fist second the sound was sublime, digital rarely gets better than this - in form of Kassandra DAC only probably. I am not saying this lightly, just compare Helene to all...
