The founder and editor in chief of STEREO GUIDE has been testing for over three decades as a hi-fi expert for print and online magazines such as AUDIO, stereoplay, LowBeats or FAZ Kaufkompass. In addition to cultivated music playback, he likes fast cars - including classic cars - with rich sound. He also reports regularly on this topic, not least on this platform.

With its stylish retro design, the Marshall Monitor II hides many modern functions. The sound in our test? Hard rocking, fast and not really gentle.
The Klipsch The One Plus is aimed at the small, select circle of retro Bluetooth speakers. It is technically at the forefront with a USB socket for PCs.
The JBL Authentics 500 brings retro charm as well as a powerful, dynamic sound. It was a real pleasure to do the sound check.
Electrocompaniet EC-Living Tana SL-2 and Sira L-1 Sub excelled in the review with synergies that went far beyond richer bass reproduction.
Sharp XParty Street Beat (PS-949) is aimed at the party speakers from JBL and Sony. Light organ, good mobility and great app are offset by some weaknesses.
The Bose QuietComfort Ultra headphones ensure absolute silence in noisy environments. In addition to the top ANC, they rely on 3D audio. A review.
For less than 100 euros, the Soundcore Motion 300 offers refinements such as automatic sound adjustment, a great app and rich bass.
With The Three Plus, Klipsch wants to compete with the retro Bluetooth speakers from Marshall. Its wild card is extensive connectivity.
The Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds replaced the QC II after a short build time. The Bluetooth in-ear combines extremely effective ANC with 3D audio.
