Summary:
The Digital Phase AP-.7 Studio Monitors are exceptionally musical, reproducing instruments and voice with a very high degree of uncolored clarity. Sound stage is rendered naturally with sound source locations fairly identifiable utilizing well recorded media. Frequency response is very linear from 20k+ Hertz down to barely below 40 Hertz, where it takes a steep dive. For some music genre, a subwoofer is not necessary.

These loudspeakers exhibit surprisingly good dynamics, although I am uncertain how they perform with very demanding material. I listen to jazz primarily and to pop music and classical rock secondarily, so I can not comment on their performance with other music genre. Fans of AV theater and heavy rock must listen and judge for themselves.

During the past several years, Digital Phase has developed a few driver and crossover upgrades for its loudspeakers. I have not had these installed in my 14 year old units, but now plan to replace my AP-.7 monitors with a pair of the most recent version AP-.7CC loudspeakers. Those MTM configuration speakers will be mounted vertically to conserve horizontal space in my audio system.

I highly recommend the Digital Phase AP-.7 monitors for their exceptional musicality, very good sound stage, broad frequency response, fine build quality, and performance value. They genuinely are excellent speakers.

Marantz MA-9S2 Reference Series Power Amplifiers Review

Marantz MA-9S2 Power AmplifierThe list above has one tenet that I continue to hold true: high powered amplifiers are necessary to reproduce the full dynamic range of music with most speakers. This became apparent when I changed from the 100 Watt per channel Bella Extreme 100 to the 250 Watt.....

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
