You guys really cover a lot of ground during the course of a year. Great work. I liked the Yamaha A-S3200, Decware Zen and Klipsch and Magnat speakers from your reviews. In fact I ordered the Yamaha A-S1200 because it is more my budget. Should arrive Tuesday. I like that it is all analog and won't have an out dated dac or version of bluetooth to deal with in the future. Also that I can switch the speakers off and use the pre amp out to feed my tube amp giving me flexibility. I also ordered the Decware Zkit1 kit version of the zen and will put that together after the first of the year.

My nominees are the Kanto YU Passives and the Samsung Q950A sound bar. And the winner is….. The Samsung Q950A!! Your advice and reviews made me cancel an order for the Klipsch Cinema 1200 and am I ever glad I did. The Samsung is a relentless monster that’s got me seriously thinking about selling my main AVR system and replacing it with a second Samsung. The convenience and the full 11.1.4 Atmos system are a steal at its price. It only has two faults. The damned display on the top and not having the controls that display oversees on the app. Other than that, I love the thing. Bravo, Samsung.

I, for one, AM surprised by Kristis pick for product of the year!! So nice to hear a reviewer choose a budget minded product, purely on how it sounded! If we are going to encourage a new generation of audiophiles, we must have products that are VERY affordable to get them in to the hobby. I haven't heard them personally, but of the products that I have heard, that you guys compared them to, I can tell that they are something that WOULD appeal to new folks to the hobby! Thank you guys for all thst you do! I have taken your recommendations on some products, and I don't know what I would Do if I hadn't listened to your review of the Crown XLS drivecore amp...it just brought my Maggie's to life! Look forward to you guys with my Sundsy morning coffee. Thank you. God bless you both! Wishes for a prosperous New Year! Peace ✌

There have been a couple “silver linings” in the COVID-19 cloud for me and getting into HiFi audio and finding this channel are 2 of them. Thank you Andrew AND Kristi (honestly I think I look forward to Kristi’s opinions as much as Andrew’s and her importance to this channel shouldn’t be under appreciated) for such thoughtful intelligent and honest reviews. My product of the year is absolutely the Beolab 28’s that I serendipitously got to demo in NYC last week. I wrote a lengthy comment on that video last week but I’ll just say those speakers were like none I’ve seen or heard and they literally moved my wife to tears. I often roll my eyes at audio gear that is cost of a used car but these speakers were such a revelation that my wife and I are actually considering buying them.

My favorite product was Sony's HT-A9. Reason being, while looking for a new house and having to take into account room dimensions/layout with the HT-A9 none of that really matters. Set it up, and it just works. I'm also a diehard Sony fan so that plays a factor no doubt.

Thank you both for your reviews, they have been very helpful. You pushed me over the line earlier this year to get the wood finish Beosound Stage, and I really love it sonically and aesthetically. You kept calling it pleasant to use and listen, and it comes through. It feels like a Swiss army knife: not perfect at any one thing but it makes everything sound exceptional in its own, pleasant way. Now I need to look at Audiolab for my hifi setup...!

@@andrewrobinsonreviews instead of a list of the year, can I make a " recovering audiophile Christmas wish list'? Lol I love how you guys talk about whether products work well with each other, and I'd love to have you maybe add something: Maybe a bit of a checklist of music types. The reason is, that I, like many others, listen to lots of genres that also include metal ( which is notoriously not as well produced and hard to make sound good on higher end stuff) . Maybe metal, rock, electronic,pop, classical,and jazz checklist? And I'd love to hear your reviews of the willsenton r8 in comparison to your decware. Merry Christmas guys!

Thank you both for such a great channel. My personal product of the year is the Klipsch RP-600M. I just got them from a Black Friday sale and love them. It is my mini La Scala for my small room. :)

Mine would be there Cambridge Audio AXR100 - I bought it based on yours (and others) review to replace a dead NAD 3155 and could not be happier. Great job in 2021, good luck in 2022.

I had to rebuild my setup earlier this year but I was very impressed with the sound quality from the Topping E50 DAC. And the screen that shows the current sample rate is the cherry on top.

Excellent show!!! Always love the content you two bring to us! Any chance you'd consider bringing in some stand alone or integrated DAC info? Some of us weirdos have vintage kits that long for good content on tying in the digital age... Happy Holidays ya'll!

I love these guys. They're intelligent, insightful but still have a sense of fun. Andrew has the knowledge and delivery to ensure we're never left wanting. Kristi is the power behind the throne who chooses not to appear on screen but we have to respect her wishes. She collates all the information and provides the links to make it easy for us to seek out any reviewed products. I also love that despite not appearing on camera she provides her own opinion of the review in question. Sometimes Andrew and Kristi do not always agree but that's a good thing, as audio and visual products are very subjective and one persons like is another's dislike. Keep it up guys, your channel is superb, both subjectively and professionally.

This is wonderful addition Team. Happy for the Technics, AXR100 and Transpulls, Klipsh of course notwithstanding them being outside of my reality of things, I had hoped the Monitor Audio 100 will get more nomination but its cool. Great year for me more so because of this channel. I love you guys. I do! Your proficiency, how you take what you do so seriously it shows, top quality. Well done Andrew

Hey guys, really fun video today... My product of the year, my Yamaha Rx-V6A... Gave me goosebumps of delight watching Dunes, Invasion (apple+), 007 No Time to die... Specially Invasion, the soundtrack is amazingly amazing... I should add the Apple TV, for allowing that receiver to express itself. Love the AT-LP120 from Audiotechnica too. Miss my technics... Hope 2022 gives us as nmuch joy ! Keep up the good job and the good spirit!! Your channel, should be nominated too and get the prize! thx to both of you!
