A surprisingly good product in terms of price-to-performance ratio. I can compare it to gear from Chord or Aqua Acoustics, and this unassuming unit holds its own when it comes to sound quality. Excellent, responsive service from the owner of the European distributor. A great purchase—hoping for more just as successful in the future.

The Matrix Audio NT-1 has exceeded my expectations in every way. It delivers an exceptionally natural, transparent and refined sound with outstanding resolution, yet never sounds analytical or fatiguing. The soundstage is wide, deep and incredibly stable, while instruments and voices are reproduced with remarkable realism. What impressed me most is the effortless musicality combined with absolute precision. Every detail emerges from a wonderfully black background, making the listening experience immersive and engaging. The build quality, software stability and the MA Remote app are equally excellent. The NT-1 has become the perfect digital transport for my system. An outstanding product that I can recommend without hesitation.

I was looking for a highly transparent cable with minimal coloration, and that's what led me to the SQM. It has exceeded my expectations by a wide margin and is truly an outstanding cable. The accuracy of reverberation and the three-dimensional soundstage are exceptional. The sense of realism is so convincing that it almost feels as if you could reach out and touch the sound. I sincerely hope Grimm Audio will expand the SQM lineup to include power cables, speaker cables, and other audio cables in addition to interconnects.

Wunderbarer DAC, mit der richtiger Aufnahme ein Traum. Durchzeichnung und Tiefenstaffelung sehr gut. Und das für diesen Preis. Einfach unglaublich.

The R-8HE is a sensational DAC, featuring an incredibly pitch-black background, a massive soundstage, and a lifelike, visceral sound. Its micro- and macro-dynamics are simply stunning. It brings out the best in every musical genre.

Really GREAT performance: very open, high dynamic and resolution at the same time! You can hear all the details and still get the groove from the rythmic precesion in timing. Fits very well in my oldschool (olive) NAIM system outperforming the NAIM DAC and even the old reference - the NAIM NDS (!)

Mooie upgrade tov he1000se laag is veel voller en meer details maar is wel gedoe met die bescherm kappen en het oppassen dat je de driver niet raakt maar goed dat weet je vantevoren. Maga hifi heeft ook fijne service en snelle verzending

I had already installed SR Purple and Pink fuses in all my components, the DAC was the last link in the chain left to upgrade. After a solid break-in period, there is a noticeable sense of greater calm, ease and fluidity; everithing is more intelligible and musical, in a word, less "digital". If you have a very good and well-balanced hifi system,buying these fuses is an excellent idea. As always the service provided by Jos and Rob is excellent.

t is a pleasure to work with Magnahifi. Talking about Holo Audio SPRING 3 DAC KTE Kitsune: it is far better that what i could imagine. Strong fast fully textured bass. Fully detailed on all sprectrum, without the crispy of delta sigma products. sound is kind of analogue. Wide scene. An amazing product.

The design of the SW-10PRO—both external and internal—is thoughtful and beautiful at first glance. I ordered this switch as an upgrade to my existing unit from a well-known high-end manufacturer, which, however, lacked internal optical isolation—and that seems to be the key to success. I also had in mind that I plan to upgrade my streamer in the future, which will benefit from the fact that the SW-10PRO can be used as a master clock. The following evaluation of the sonic improvement reflects three weeks of burn-in (24/7). The sound of my system has never been better. It’s almost unbelievable that a switch upgrade can bring such clearly audible improvements. As a friend of mine who also owns this switch said: “It’s the kind of device that, once you try it, you can’t take it out of your system.” In my setup, I noticed an improvement in soundstage (especially front-to-back depth), a slight enhancement in dynamics, and an even blacker background. I thought there was no room left for improvement in the digital domain in my system (I already had an audiophile-grade switch before), but I was wrong. This device has the ability to remove the last traces of digital harshness—the sound is natural, smooth, crystal-clear, and more enjoyable for long listening sessions. I haven’t seen a component in a long time that delivers such a clear improvement for a reasonable price. Flawless! I recommend it to anyone looking to take their digital system to the next level.

Eerst gebruikte ik een toslink van een ander merk. Die zat in dezelfde prijsklasse, maar niet in hetzelfde geluidskwaliteit. Er is een beduidend verschil in premium van de Wireworld Nova. Er was meer van alles in goede zin van het woord/geluid. Een echte upgrade! Horen is weten!

Bon, car appareil n'est pas rodé, mais perçois une montée en terme de Musicalité. C'est un DAC qui privilégie le plaisir de l'écoute globale à la décomposition chirurgicale des détails. J'en suis loin des 300h minimum de rodage, donc je suis patient.
Jean Michel July 01, 2026
Een fantastische streamer. Ziet goed uit, mooi afgewerkt. Geluidskwaliteit: ruimtelijk, helder (niet schel) en gedetailleerd (niet te analytisch). Makkelijk te bedienen. Wat ik ook fijn vind is dat deze streamer compatible is met HQPlayer NAA (Network Audio Adapter). Al diversen dingen besteld bij Magna HiFi en ook nu weer zeer tevreden. Kom hier zeker terug.

Bij gebrek aan een vriendin die me adviseert over de aanschaf van hifi-componenten, ze is helaas niet perfect, wend ik me regelmatig tot Gemini. De Google AI wees me op het bestaan van de Singxer SU-2; Het argument dat mijn Musical Fidelity X-DAC V8 me zijn ware potentieel zou laten horen mocht ik voor aanschaf van deze machine kiezen, was niet aan dovemansoren gericht. Ik had eerlijk gezegd geen idee dat ik de DAC al vele jaren in zijn mogelijkheden aan het beknotten was door de laptop er direct via USB mee te verbinden. Nooit bedacht dat ik via die route de DAC en uiteindelijk ook mezelf vreselijk tekort deed. Dat apparaat kon weleens een verzetje kon gebruiken en ik natuurlijk ook, vond ik. Zo gezegd, zo gedaan. We zijn nu een paar maanden verder en kan alleen maar concluderen dat ik vele jaren niet naar muziek heb geluisterd, maar naar iets dat de potentie had om muziek te worden. Mijn set en ik zijn dankzij Google en vooral de Singxer op een hele fijne plek aanbeland.

I spent a Friday afternoon at Magna hifi , where I listened to three streamers with a wide variety of music . Rob explained how they functioned as streamers , their ease of use and limitations . He was also helpful answering my questions about the subtle differences in sound that I observed . It was a most enjoyable afternoon. After the weekend I made my order, The Matrix TT 1 ,I am delighted with my choice , a beautiful refined sound , simple to use and it looks great. Ceri

Review of Holo Audio May KTE, Holo Red and Mega HiFi After spending considerable time listening to and using the Holo Audio May KTE DAC and the Holo Red, I can confidently say that these are exceptional products. As time goes by, the sound continues to improve, and in my opinion I still have not reached their full potential. There is no doubt in my mind that these components can be integrated into virtually any audio system, including the highest-end systems available today. I own one of the most respected and ambitious audio systems ever built: Wilson Audio Alexandria 2 loudspeakers, Krell MRA monoblock amplifiers, a Krell Evolution Two preamplifier, original Krell CAST connections and Transparent Opus cables. The Holo Red is connected to the Holo Audio May KTE DAC, and the synergy between them is truly outstanding. The level of performance is remarkable. I was genuinely surprised that products at this price point are capable of delivering such extraordinary results. I had read many positive reviews before purchasing them, but until they are actually integrated into your own system, it is difficult to fully understand how impressive they really are. My Alexandria 2 system is so revealing and so highly resolving that any recording or component that is not truly high quality gets exposed immediately. This system does not hide imperfections; it reveals every weakness throughout the entire recording chain. That is exactly why these Holo Audio products impressed me so much. They manage to achieve an extremely respectable level of performance in a system that is exceptionally demanding. I also own a second system based on Wilson Audio Sophia loudspeakers, paired with an Audio Research power amplifier and preamplifier. In this setup, the Holo Audio Red is connected directly to the Digital-to-Analog Converter built into the Audio Research preamplifier. Naturally, this configuration does not fully exploit all of the Holo Red's capabilities because it is limited by the DAC built into the Audio Research preamplifier. Nevertheless, the performance it delivers within those limitations is extremely impressive. When playing 192 kHz recordings, the sound is simply outstanding. I am genuinely very happy with this decision. Anyone considering these products should stop hesitating. In my opinion, they compete with products that cost tens and even hundreds of thousands of dollars, while offering tremendous value for money and reaching a performance level that belongs among the industry's elite. I highly recommend them. Regarding Mega HiFi and both Jos and Rob, my entire experience with them has been exceptional. This is a highly professional, reliable and accurate company. Throughout the entire process, I received constant updates regarding the status and location of every item I purchased. Everything they promised was delivered exactly as described. Their communication was continuous, transparent and reassuring, which gave me confidence that I was dealing with a very serious and trustworthy business. I truly enjoyed purchasing from them and I highly recommend them. Thank you for the outstanding service, professionalism and overall experience. David Forman

Ik had een teleurstellende ervaring met het ruisniveau van mijn vorige voorversterker met ingebouwde DAC en de verbonden monoblokken via XLR. Na een intensieve zoektocht naar een aparte DAC en voorversterker die recht doen aan mijn Michi M8 monoblokken en B&W 801 D4's, heb ik de stap gezet naar de Holo Audio May KTE en voorversterker Holo Serene KTE. Rob en Jos hebben alles gedaan om neutrale informatie te geven — via gesprekken én een luistersessie waarbij op verzoek een vergelijk met andere apparaten in het hoogste segment is gemaakt. Dat gaf mij het vertrouwen om een goed onderbouwde keuze te maken. Besteld via Magna HiFi: uitstekende service, proactief contact, deskundig advies en een vlotte levering. Het geluid van de May KTE en de Serene KTE is opvallend naturel — geen digitale hardheid, geen versmering, gewoon muziek. De neutraliteit en textuur waarmee tonen worden weergegeven is bijzonder. Vooral de gelaagdheid van de lage tonen valt op: gecontroleerd, diep en prachtig gearticuleerd. Het totale geluidsbeeld is nooit vermoeiend, zelfs niet bij minder goed opgenomen materiaal. Belangrijke kanttekening: de Holo May KTE en waarschijnlijk ook de Serene heeft een aanzienlijke inspeeltijd nodig. Ik heb beide apparaten meer dan 250 uur continu van muziek voorzien. Direct uit de doos al goed, maar na die 250 uur werd het geluid hoorbaar losser en ruimtelijker. Neem die tijd — het loont ruimschoots.

Two days ago, I almost wanted to return it because it sounded good, but not particularly exceptional. Fortunately, I discovered that I had been using the wrong DAC setting in GentooPlayer. Thanks to Rob’s help, I was able to reinstall it successfully. And how does it sound now? Well, the notes sound like they are coming straight from heaven! For the moment, I won’t touch anything else. I’ll just sit back and enjoy the music. Thanks again for your kind, professional, and invaluable help.

Great product. Great performance. Excellent service. Highly recommended.

I'm very happy with the new DAC. I replaced the Musician Pegasus. It was also good, but it had a softer, warmer sound compared to the Holo. I use it with a Flux M-field headphone amplifier and Hifiman 1000 stealth headphones. The Holo has better dynamics, resolution, and I think it's closer to a live performance. It has a more neutral sound compared to the Pegasus. I am very satisfied with it

De microfoon werkt uitstekend en is nauwkeurig genoeg voor kleine manuele aanpassingen voor room correction.

As the owner of a Holo Audio Spring 3 KTE DAC, choosing the Holo Audio Red felt almost like an obvious choice. It was designed from the ground up by the brand as the natural partner for their DACs, and this is confirmed from the very first notes. The pairing is simply magical. After a necessary short break-in period and a few hours of listening for everything to fully settle in, the verdict is definitive. Connected via I2S (HDMI) into the Spring 3, the Red does a phenomenal job of cleaning up and reclocking the signal. The background becomes pitch-black, the soundstage opens up in a truly three-dimensional way, and every micro-detail stands out with disconcerting fluidity, without a hint of digital glare. There is a clear gain in texture and body, pushing the "analog" character so dear to the Spring 3's R2R circuit to its absolute peak. On the integration side, it’s a flawless performance. Configured as a Roon Ready bridge, it is rock-solid stable. The network stream is processed with total transparency, proving that these two devices were truly developed to go hand in hand. For the price, the build quality and pure performance are downright mind-blowing. If you own a Spring 3 KTE, look no further: the Red is its rightful companion. An absolute must-have!
