Aesthetix Calypso Preamplifier

June 4, 2012

Big E has posted a review of the Aesthetix Calypso preamplifier ($4999) at H-Fi Unlimited. His conclusions:

“Listening to music via the Aesthetix not only sounds tonally right and rhythmically tight, but rather it’s the way it engages the listener, drawing one in to a staged event or recording venue and artistic emotional intents all rolled in to one, highly rewarding experience. I found it hard to return this unit to The Audio Store, but yet I am hoping to sample the Aesthetix Janus Signature in the near future, should that chance come around. I find the Janus one chassis solution to pre-amp and phono stage needs highly appealing in the up graded Signature form, of which the Calypso and Rhea is also available in. Here’s looking towards a better tomorrow indeed!”
