V590² was born out of necessity when the AKM factory burned down.

During the High End Show quite a few people tried to choose between both but it was never decisive and they couldn't make a decision. Best would be finding a place which has both and then listen for yourself. The v281 is more colorful, the V550 departs towards a more neutral sound but stops...

Yes, I'd pick any JAR800v3 (non S) over it.

I have posted a few ones here and there. Got limited time right now. Might drop a review here on head-fi sometime to coverall the curiousity. All in all absolutely worth it if you love the original product and seek the perfection of it rather than a transformation into something else. Projects...

It's actually uses two G111 Mk2

Yes, needs a bit more subbass, was rather lean down low. A bit of hardness in the upper mid region but the High End isn't very reliable for the latter. Other than that very promising. Nice tone overall.

Loved the AR5000 on the High End Show in Munich. Very refreshing to see such a well balanced package for a low price.

No DACs for now

It will always be a polarizing look. Many like it the way it is though, the market will decide in the end anyway. Definitely isn't finished though, so finer changes are a given.

Just like the v340, so inbetween v222 and v550 in sound.

Well, the 324 definitely steals the 340's show, so you can figure out the rest.

Pregain knob isn't easy to move or let's say "hard enough".

Nothing to show this year as you can see on Instagram.
