I'm from Ukraine....there is in war now...but I love music and sound... thank you from help for us yores translations...

[@PursuitPerfectSystem]

Wow we all feel for you and hope the situation sorts itsself out - sorry if that’s the wrong words to use - sooner rather than later

[@pauljordan3828]

Thank you for all your reviews this year Terry , they really have been some of the best on your tube and I’ve looked forward to every one of them and thanks for taking the time to talk to me too , top man !!

[@leonardosullivan963]

Another great video. After researching Subwoofers, l added a pair of Rel T7x’s to my system. I have to say the change to the soundscape and dynamics is a joy and one of the best upgrades. Merry Christmas Terry.

[@taidee]

Terry, I've watched and enjoyed everything you presented, thank you. Your high quality videos and sound makes them watchable not only for technical info you so perfectly present but also as beautiful entertainment.

[@ProjectOverseer]

Festive Greetings, Terry. Your production values are constantly progressing. Image and sound quality is at a professional broadcast standard. Your content goes above and beyond. Not just the equipment you're introducing to us, but also your honesty and learning experience - especially your efforts with turntable technology. I've been involved in audiophile products, and studio kit for many years. I also have and interest in filming technology. All said interests have been part of a paid profession over my lifetime. For me personally the greatest advancements have come from the budget end. Keep up the superb work Terry.

[@quma001]

I enjoy your reviews not only because they are informative and fun to watch, but also because of the high production quality. This channel deserves much more subscribers. Merry Christmas and happy new year from Switzerland. 🍻

[@budgetaudiophilelife-long5461]

THANKS TERRY …🤗 for all your hard work 😓 this year and I hope you get to relax a little 😁💚💚💚

[@carlitosgomez71]

Happy xmas and New year. You've been the first youtube reviewer to get me back into Audio after a 20 year hiatus, for the better or worse 😂 Keep up the hard work and enjoy the music

[@PursuitPerfectSystem]

That is rewarding feedback thank you very much all the best to you and yours

[@clarencehoover6748]

We appreciate your dedication to quality and integrity. Wishing you health, rich experiences and enlightenment. 💜

[@chubbylittlefingers]

Thank you Terry for your hard work in putting out a superb you tube channel. Have a great Christmas and new year 🎄look forward to seeing the new content next year.

[@titntin5178]

Terry, you've done excellent work this year and deserve applause for your dedication and quality bar. It was partially because of your excellent coverage that I took the plunge and we have Elysian 3 speakers for Christmas this year, a decision I'll never regret as they sound fantastic and just what we were looking for! I look forward to watching you in the coming year. Wishing you joy and happiness for you and yours this holliday! 🎵🎶👌

[@PursuitPerfectSystem]

Thanks very much mate appreciate it

[@jeffreythurston1822]

Terry you have an amazing channel. Congratulations on a great year of presentations. I will say that of all the channels I follow I find yours the most well produced and your style of communication is top notch. I know it’s hard work, and it shows, but your videos really are a joy to watch. Thank you for keeping them going and I hope you have a great New year.

[@Brett1334]

Loved the new factory tour videos this year Terry! Would love more next year. Have a good Christmas 🎅

[@clarkson427]

Personally, my best buy to date is the eversolo DMP-A6 , I completely love it. I just need to buy a nice integrated amp moving from my arcam avr20 like MF m6si or hegel 190 to work with my arendal 1723s towers. Well done Terry, and Merry Christmas.

[@Entitaet69]

Within this price range you should consider Rega Elicit Mk5 or Exposure 3510 integrated as well. As I also intend to upgrade from my Rega Elex Mk4 I think about whether I should go for a hybrid .... there are some interesting Italian hybrid amps such as Unison Research Unico Due or Pathos Classic One Mk3 which are about the same price level. Have an audiophile Happy New Year :-)

[@Mario-pn5lp]

Thank you Terry for all your hard work this year, it is much appreciated! Wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy new year!🎉

[@PursuitPerfectSystem]

Thanks very much man, same to you and yours

[@matthewhoult1350]

Thanks for your all your hard work this year Terry there was some great product reviews and the video content is very high well done mate,. Looking forward to more interesting prodcut reviews in 2024 so wishing you and your family a very Merry Christamas and a prosperous New Year.

[@marcus1970]

Terry, some very worthy winners and other for consideration there, seems you've had great year going by the content, subscribers and viewings figures .. Merry Christmas and with some luck I'll bump into you in 2024 🍻

[@davidmojonnier1034]

Thanks for all you do Terry. Rocking Focal Cora 806 and your speaker sound demo really helped. Happy Christmas.

[@gildasguillaume251]

I love your KZbin channel. Sorry for the pressure but the result is great. Please keep going 😊

[@yannickscharloo7154]

Thanks for all the reviews! They are amazing till in the deep details!

[@jasonme3557]

Great stuff Terry. Hope you have a wonderful holiday and looking forward to new stuff in the coming year

[@kamanda6443]

Hey Terry, thanks a lot for all the nice videos you made this year, I had a great time watching them and I did discover a lot of cool staff and brands I didn’t knew about before, Big Up!! As for a review suggestion, I think the Allnic H-5500 phono preamp might be interesting for you as it’s in between the old school warm tube sound and the solid state impactful type of sound, so it apparently work great on every style of music. Have a great Christmas mate, cheers from the Alps!

[@skumnjepf]

Merry Christmas to you and your family. Keep on the good work and thank you!🎉🎉🎉

[@GeoffParsons1469]

Happy Christmas Terry, thank you for your hard work and top notch content..

[@Ricky-cl5bu]

Your right I’ve a pair of the B&W headphones , I use them for everything

[@andyhanson5935]

FOR 2024, would appreciate you keeping CD in the frame and how it still fares against alternative formats. A lot of us still have CD players and large collections that we intend to carry on enjoying, despite current trends and claims that CD is defunct.

[@PursuitPerfectSystem]

Point noted and thank you for the suggestion

[@thetragicyouth]

Great content, Terry - the Top Gear of HiFi! Have a great Christmas!

[@garygalinos1176]

Another great video Terry. Would love to see a review of the PS Audio Air Lens streamer. Best wishes for the Festive season, and keep up the amazing work in 2024.

[@markflower8885]

I don't know how you manage it while managing Everton football club at the same time... Joking aside I love your content and reviews. Merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous New Year Terry. 👍

[@PursuitPerfectSystem]

It’s why I look so tired all the time :) same to you mark and yours

[@4ujase]

Audiolab 9000N Vs Eversolo DMP A8, nice to have a direct comparison :). These two are roughly in the same price category.

[@elbebe1000]

Thank you for the great job this year. Happy holidays from Bridgeport Connecticut USA

[@kentonkirkpatrick5225]

I wish you would do a comprehensive review of the B&W DB1D Subwoofer. Maybe compare it to your favorite REL? Always enjoy your videos. Merry Christmas!

[@agaskew]

[@bobb.9917]

I would like to see battle of the AMT Vs Ribbon tweeter. Audiovector Vs Martin Logan, every year you get better and better so the hard work is appreciated.

[@paulgillard5094]

Brilliant video as always Terry. Love those choice of speakers ! Which in your opinion would match best with the Hegel 590 ?

[@orborbea9844]

This was a joy to watch h , thank you !

[@PursuitPerfectSystem]

Thank you

[@cyberblut]

Oh, the PX8, the biggest disappointment of mine, I have quite a sad story with them. Bought in November 2022 and was happy with all I got until suddenly the bottom part of the headband just glued away. That leather strip is not fixed there properly but loosely glued instead, so, during casual wearing and rubbing over my bald head, it just teared off in 2 months since purchase. Big respect to my local deal, they offered me refund or change. According to them B&W was aware of the situation as I was not alone and fixed the issue in newer stock, but guess it, it went down the same way again (and again). After having 3 pairs (!!) with the same problem I just asked for money back and bought Focal Bathys. And briefly seen your pair in the video I can say it almost at the spot of tearing off like mine.

[@PursuitPerfectSystem]

Yeah that also happened to mine but I just re glued it and it’s been fine. I thought it happened because of where I store them and how I remove them from it - this quite snug hook thing on my desk. It was a simple fix but interesting I thought that was just me. Maybe its. bald thing 😄

[@amb3cog]

I’m curious which one you liked better between the Focal, and the B&W’s? I’ve been looking at the Focal’s myself. And hadn’t even thought of B&W until just now. But they look really nice. ✌️

[@cyberblut]

@@amb3cog from the sonic side of things I really like both. They are quite different in presentation but each has own spirit if I may say :) If to be super precise and select just one, I would keep Bathys. The sound stage is better/wider in those and overall sound is more refined on the whole frequency spectrum compared to PX8. The PX8 have more striking highs and unusable EQ while Bathys are balanced and can be adjusted via their app to follow Harman curve which makes big difference to the music I listen somehow. From the dynamics standing point both are great. Wearing experience, microphone (not for windy days tho), battery, ANC -- all good. One nuance I can highlight is that PX8 have more precise volume adjustment, while Bathys do more "coarse" steps when I'd like to have a step in the middle, but that's not a dealbreaker. I got Bathys for exactly the same price as PX8 due to holiday discounts and I really don't want to take them off. With PX8 it was cool and nice, I listened to them when I'm out & about and put on stand when back home, while the Bathys I wan't to continue listening to :)

[@pulDag]

Hi Terry, as you said, lots of products are not able to win the "best of '23" because you had no chance to test them against similarly priced products. Which sub was against those Rel 31s? Thanks

[@PursuitPerfectSystem]

You know what I never thought of that, point well made :) I think the main difference is I hear a lot of subwoofers and the benefit of them for a lot of systems in my calibration work. I will try and hold that line but point well made

[@pulDag]

@@PursuitPerfectSystem ha, got it. Be well.

[@marioplus321]

thx!

Could you review turntable cartridges mm and Mc thanks merry Christmas

[@LOUDERthanU]

Merry xmas all. I’m looking forward to Dirac live making its way into Auralic products. Might need your help setting up my 2 channel plus sub system Terry🕺🏻

If you can afford Dirac Auralic you might be able to afford me 😎. Thanks all the best

I cant see that you review bang olufsen

[@stevenkoski228]

Hi Terry, your Mark Levinson headphones, are produced by Harmon Kardon. Mark never mfg’d a headphone. HK years ago sued ML for the exclusive rights to his name. Sadly HK won the lawsuit. ML can’t use his name on any products he sells today. I’m 68yrs old, & based on principles, I’d never buy any HK product, especially any bearing the ML name/trademark😡.

[@Crmsnraider]

The politics of things is madness sometimes. …I’d Just found out yesterday Samsung owns Harmon/Kardon group, so that company is way bigger then I already knew and they practically own the South Korean Government along with a few others…*edit* companies that is not other Govt’s

[@sonycarp8271]

Why no sony, 🤔

[@PursuitPerfectSystem]

The video was all shot on a Sony

[@sonycarp8271]

Yeah, I did think the video looked good, however no audio Sony products, 😤

[@PursuitPerfectSystem]

Yeah I don’t have any contacts there to get any and do they sell HiFi products these days?
