Auf den ersten Blick fallen kleine Änderungen am Gehäuse auf. Die Front wurde an den Kanten ein wenig verrundet. Das Schwarz unseres Tesgeräts war schon für das erste Modell verfügbar. Auch das gut ablesbare, monochrome OLED-Display kennt man vom…
Seit einigen Jahren gehört die Sabre32-Serie zu den Referenzli-nien bei hochwertigen Digital-Analog-Convertern. Doch nun wird Platz gemacht für eine neue Generation smarter Chips, die natürlich die Leis-tungen des Vorgängers übertreffen sollen. D…

Firstly I would like to thank Matrix Audio for sending me this sample to review, in exchange for my honest opinion. I always try to write honest reviews, this unit received over 50hrs of burn-in before reviewing, no differences were noted.…
Matrix Audio has been in the audio industry for many years and has been garnering positive feedback regarding their DAC and Headphone amplifiers. If you are familiar with the company, Im sure you know what I mean. However, for those who are…
The M-Stage ReLoaded (see what I did there) So, back into the Matrix again with their redesigned M-Stage-HPA-3U. Mike (remember him?) reviewed an earlier M-Stage model here. I generally agree with his take on it, so it would be worth readin…
I was actually a little apprehensive about the Matrix Quattro II review. Its not that I was worried about the quality of the product. I have reviewed enough Matrix gear by now to feel confident that it would be a solid product. I wasnt worr…
Cand am vazut pentru prima data Matrix Mini-I, mintea m-a dus catre dac-urile Bel Canto, cand am vazut display-ul OLED mi-am amintit cat de mult imi place afisajul de la Primare i32, cand am ascultat noile produse am fost pur si simplu surp…

Is there such a thing as too many value-priced DACs within the high fidelity audio industry? The Matrix Audio Mini-i Pro reviewed here is but one example of many. Personally, I don't think it is as healthy competition pushes engineers to th…
Greetings, this is a comparative review of the recently updated Matrix Mini-I and Mini-I Pro. Also compared will be the Matrix X-Sabre (DAC only duties) and Matrix M-Stage HPA-2 (headphone amp only duties). The X-Sabre and M-Stage are meant…
Disclaimer. We received a sample of the Matrix X-Sabre Pro directly from the US distributor for the purpose of this review. Sabre – Dac Story Boy, has this one been a long time coming. I went back through my emails, and Arthur Powers, the…
X-Sabre Rattling It is a Western clich to consider Chinese products as cheaply made and of poor quality. It is also a high end audio stereotype to see Chinese audio components as low quality and having inferior sound. Meanwhile, an average…
Matrix X-SABRE to przetwornik wyceniany na prawie 4800 zł. Nie czaruje funkcjonalnością, nie ma pełnego pakietu złącz, ani wzmacniacza słuchawkowego. To tylko przetwornik? Sprawdziliśmy jak X-SABRE radzi sobie w zadaniach słuchawko…
DAC Matrix E finalmente disponibile per gli appassionati latteso convertitore Matrix X Sabre, che adotta il modernissimo chip a 32 bit della ESS Technology ES9018 Sabre Reference (quattro moduli per canale) in grado di contrastare efficacem…
DSD is all the rage these days. Despite there not being a whole lot of music available in the format (SACDs aside), DAC makers are jumping on the feature as fast as they can. And I can't blame them - aside from our regular music, we all lov…
