  • DAGOGO Review
    April 2008
    Jack Roberts weighs the caliber of
    the Roksan Caspian M Series Integrated Amplifier

    www.dagogo.com/RoksanCaspianInt.html

    “… the Roksan Caspian M-series1 has that rare ability to sound fast, quick and nimble, yet relaxed at the same time”.

    “The Roksan Caspian M-series1's micro-dynamics are world-class for amplifiers of any price range... It is very capable of being the centerpiece of a very emotionally satisfying high-end system”.

    Vol2/No2 March/April 2008
    www.hificritic.com

    “The Roksan Kandy L.III is easily the most musical of the bunch: it's the most effective communicator by far, by virtue of the information it manages to scavenge and the slick, perfectly ordered yet easy manner in which it presents it ... Throughout the review I never once heard it issue signs of distress or falter when the music became challenging".

    ... If you want your cake completely iced and decorated with candles and ribbons, spend your money on the Kandy”.

    Roksan Radius5
    5 Stars
    Tremendously musical and stunning looks

    "The Roksan mixes high style with top engineering to great effect. Its two-tier base comes in either a transparent acrylic finish or a choice of wood veneers – all of which look striking. The deck proved fiddly to set up and the supplied Roksan Nima tonearm felt disconcertingly wobbly at first. However, patience was rewarded by wonderful sound. Whether enjoying the subtleties of Mozart or the raw power of Megadeath, this turntable gets to the heart of the music like no other. Rivals may deliver more dynamic bass, greater fine detail, or a more expansive, room-filling sound, but the Roksan captured vinyl’s natural musicality best. An excellent choice."

    www.hificritic.com

    ...Upgrade Plinth (UP) makes good sense, but its advantage will depend on the surface on which the turntable is used, as some platforms will comprise the performance of the basic turntable more than others".


    DX2
    Even straight from the box, I was quite shocked to hear the enormous improvement wrought by simply changing the motor drive.
    ... The DX2 is certainly worth its extra cost as a motor drive alone... The extra power, authority and scale it generates is quite shocking, improving resolution and dynamic expression right across the band”.

    I intend to return to this excellent record player soon in order to try out some of the upgrade options. The Xerxes20/Artemiz2 has very little in common with the Radius5/Nima. Rather it's a superb record player capable of some of the best results from vinyl that this reviewer has heard to date”.

    Roksan's return to high-end amplifier arena is an undoubted success - it's a rare combination

    Five Stars: Platinum Precision Preamplifier PR15B
    Five Stars: Platinum Stereo Power Amplifier ST1308


    What Hi-Fi?: “How does this combo sound? In a word, wonderful...

    This amp set is fast insightful and bombastic, delivering the likes of the White Stripes with an enthusiasm that's rare at any price...

    With their ultra-vivid and transparent midrange, sky-high build quality, good connectivity, and one of the most pleasing metal remotes we've seen, these Roksans are masterclass of amp design”
    .


    Verdict: “A wonderfully organic and fluid-sounding amplifier; impressively authoritative without sacrificing speed or timing”.

  • Phono Reference DXP SE
    Group Test winner
    Phono Reference DXP SEHIFICRITIC
    Vol1/No3 May/June 2007
    www.hificritic.com

    "... The DXP SE is even more impressive at mid and treble frequencies, though MC identified a mildly 'bright shiny' quality in high treble. The midband in particular has a vitality and purity that is hard to gainsay. Not only is sound expressive and finely detailed, it is consistent across a broad dynamic envelope, unusually transparent, and conveys the joie de vivre of fine music making to benefit of most music types -- rock, classical and acoustic".

    "... Of the models tested here this is the one that in our judgment comes closest to making vinyl replay truly compelling and engaging experience".

  • HIFICRITICRadius 5/Nima
    HIFICRITIC
    Vol1/No3 May/June 2007
    www.hificritic.com

    ... Radius 5/Nima combo is a formidable performer, in spite of its quite reasonable price. Its best feature is a wonderfully coherent and expressive midband, which combines realistic dynamic bite with an impressively wide dynamic range and low 'grunge' floor".

    The fact that the whole record player is capable of delivering such a very fine sound quality at a surprisingly realistic price indicates that the Radius 5/Nima combo is much more than just a pretty looking turntable -- It's also excellent sonic value for money. And if the Radius 5 is this good, it's clearly time I checked out Roksan's current Xerxes 20 and TMS 2 turntables”.
    Paul Messenger


  • Hi-Fi News Super Systems
    Roksan Caspian System
    June 2007

    Hi-Fi News: "... This was a fine example of the Roksan system's ability to produce a soundstage that was huge, extending well beyond the speakers and displaying great depth in frontal area. The sound never became bloated, and the impressions of size and scale were clearly not achieved by any kind of cheating imbalance".

    Hi-Fi News Verdict: "This near-ultimate Caspian combination proved to be a fine, incredibly analytical yet always musical system which certainly displayed the Roksan hallmark of excellent rhythm and timing. But this was not an exaggerated characteristic, or one bought at expense of something else. Instead, it seemed to be achieved effortlessly".

    The competition: Advance Acoustic MCD-203, Atoll CD 100, Audiolab 8000CD, Micromega CD132SE, Marantz SA7001, Rega Apollo.

    "Listening verdict: It soon became obvious that no matter how good the other players were the Roksan (Kandy CD Mk III) could present the music with more emphasis and dynamic vitality. When the player also manages to maintain a warm, full even generous sound/"timbre"without losing precision, it’s not hard to be impressed. The real strength however lies in the Kandy’s natural authority and resolute weight."

    The Audiophilia Star Component AwardThe Audiophilia Star Component Award
    Audiophilia June 2006
    “For those of you interested in purchasing your first analogue setup, a listen to the Roksan is a must. There are other fine midprice turntables and arms out there, but few with the premier sound of the Radius 5 and Nima. That it looks like a masterpiece, is a cool plus. The combination that Moghaddam has produced will also fare favorably against many more expensive combos. Analog is my preference, so I want each setup I review/listen to dig into the music as far as my prospective dollars will allow. With the Radius 5, both my wallet and soul would be very happy. Very highly recommended.
