Summertime in SoCal - for as long as I can remember - has always been filled with fun, celebration and music!   For us Head-Fiers, where there is music, there is personal audio gear.  In fact, for years on end, our SoCal Head-Fi Meets - not to mention our regional audio show (T.H.E. Show...

We are very happy to announce the introduction of the new Liquid Crimson amp. This amp is the successor to the popular Liquid Fire amp. It's the product of several design prototypes and sports a small package and a thin design. The amp has that Liquid Cavalli house sound. It's dynamic, clear...

Let's say that I have $4k just burning a hole in my pocket and that I'm considering upgrading to an "end game" amplifier.     Two solid contestants for the title of "Holy Grail of headphone amps" are Ray Samuel's Dark Star and Cavalli's Liquid Gold.  Outside of price, I don't think I've ever...

  Hi everybody!   Nearly one year ago, our Liquid Carbon was officially launched here on Head-Fi.  We created it as a “thank you” to the community, offered it at an outrageously discounted price, and then watched as our server crashed from the rush of orders (that was a bit embarrassing).  ...

  The Liquid Carbon Upgrade Guide & Impressions Tour     As many of you know, Cavalli Audio has recently announced that all Liquid Carbon owners are eligible for an exclusive discount on any one of our premium amps.  At the same time, we are now collecting orders for one final production run...

  Hi everybody!     As some of you may have seen - thanks to @reddog  - there is an all-new CavalliAudio.com up and running today.  For some time now, Alex and I have felt that a web site update has been too long overdue.  And so, for the past week or so, we've been busy working on a new site...

  A few days ago, when we announced our Liquid Carbon Lifetime Warranty, we alluded to yet another surprise, exclusively available to Carbon owners.  I’ll get to that surprise in a minute.  But first, a bit of history…   As Alex and I fleshed out the concept of the Liquid Carbon in late 2014...

Cavalli Audio Liquid Carbon     NOTE:  ALL CAVALLI LIQUID CARBON UNITS HAVE NOW BEEN SOLD!   Introduction & History   Confession time everyone, I've known about the Liquid Carbon for some time now, having been one of the lucky few to have previewed it months ahead of its announcement...

Liquid Gold on the way!  Wow this looks beautiful.  The sound must be Golden...........          

  Now that you’ve got all of your larger Holiday purchases out of the way, you can treat yourself to a little indulgence with some Team Cavalli gear!   Ever since we started wearing our updated Cavalli Audio shirts at CanJam SoCal 2016 earlier this year, we’ve received many requests as to...

I know there are a ton of DIY amps already on offer but thought some of you may be interested in this one too. runeight has released his Bijou and many of us have already seen vixr's fine workmanship 1. 2. in the 'post pics of your build' thread. The official Bijou support thread and group...

On the day that the Liquid Carbon was first conceived as a product, a wide variety of possible features were discussed.  Some of these features made it into the final Liquid Carbon design, others didn’t.   One of these possible features was a lifetime warranty.  However, since we had very...

Don't know if its the upcoming election and all the talk about the ailing US economy, but I am going to buy US product (as best as I can)...... SO...... any suggestion on top end MADE IN USA headphones/earbuds manufacturers that make the product here in the USA??   Any best kept secret...

Gents, I'm starting this thread to have a fresh start with Liquid Lightning comments, quick reviews and impressions from owners, and feedback.   Also, feel free to ask questions about the LL and I'll answer if I can.

Folks, I'm creating this LF thread to discuss the current LF and possible future incarnations of it.   Many of you have written privately saying how highly you regard the LF. Some of you have decided that it's the best headphone amp around and have stopped looking for another amp. Some of...

Folks, I am very pleased to be a new headfi sponsor as of June 1. There is a lot to talk about, but before I say anything further...   I want to thank each and every person who has bought a Liquid Fire and, now, a Liquid Lightning amp. I am grateful for your support and, especially for your...

With the upgrade to the Isabellina Pro  high-resolution playback (24/192k) the prices are very similar, and I seem to be buying mostly audiophile cd's these days,so that's an upgrade I would want.Frankly I would prefer a SS amp,so if you can suggest a solid state amp that is comparable (or...

    Over the past 15 years I have struggled to satisfy my audio needs without much success.  It seems like every time I read a thread title with more than 1 exclamation point, I get as excited as a ravenous wolf whom just witness the sudden spontaneous combustion of some woodland creature...

As one who has been listening to this amp for nearly a year, it is with no small amount of celebration that I post here to let you all know that Alex Cavalli has finally released his first production amp. There were times that I thought the entire endeavor would collapse into itself and that the...

Folks, the new Liquid Glass amplifier will be available for delivery at the end of October.   The Liquid Glass is a hybrid amp at the opposite end of the tube-rolling spectrum from the Liquid Fire. The LF does not facilitate tube rolling (although owners still do it. :) ). The LG, OTOH, is...
