Twittering Machines – reviews of Thrax Enyo & Ares

Michael Lavorgna of Twittering Machines has added a fine review of the Thrax Enyo integrated amplifier with onboard phono and DAC/Streamer. This now partners their previous review of the all transistor Thrax Ares integrated. Michael found the Enyo to have’ a completely relaxed yet thoroughly gripping presentation’ with ‘bountiful fat and fully formed bass response’, a ‘groove machine’ with correct and ripe timbre.

“The last thing, the very last thing I want to be thinking about when listening to music is dissecting it like a corpse as if the heart of music can only be found in bits and pieces of detached sonic minutiae. The Thrax Enyo as streaming DAC, phono stage, and integrated amp pulverized this kind of sonic taxidermy making the act of listening to music completely captivating, thrilling, and endlessly enjoyable.”

“Thrax has a true high-end, all-in-one statement piece with the Ares. The device is, in every respect, a bona fide heavyweight in the ring. Tonally, it utilizes a precise and focused approach, featuring the high-level workmanship you would expect on a tank.”
