BLOG #102. headfonia.com Just Published a Super Thorough Review of Our (most twisted) StereoPravda SPearphone SB-3.5RU
The most daring of all headfonia.com just published a super thorough review of our (most twisted) StereoPravda SPearphone SB-3.5RU.
To quote: “…The StereoPravda SB-3.5 RU like its brothers will never win a beauty contest or get an award for comfort but the SB-3.5 RU isn’t about that. Misha’s “No pain, no Gain” philosophy is what it is but if you can handle that you can be sure to get a very nice and unique high-end sounding IEM with a sound signature you’ve never heard before. A fine example of a technical masterpiece”.
Happy New Year! All the best in 2022!

BLOG #90. Congratulations to Stephen Ambrose!
Six degrees of separation is the idea that all people on average are six, or fewer, social connections away from each other. Also known as the 6 Handshakes rule.
In this case - between Brian Johnson of AC/DC and me - it's just two.
My most sincere congratulations to Stephen Ambrose of Asius Technologies for helping Brian to overcome his hearing loss!
I collaborated with Stephen on some new developments for the StereoPravda SPearphone project (which ones I can't tell yet as I' m under NDA).
Stephen's endorsement segment in this Brian Johnson's interview – the link is here - starts at 5:10. Read more…
