Ear Fidelity 2025 Awards
As the year 2025 is coming to an end, it’s time to round things up, as per usual. This year, we had many new releases that redefined their respective fields in terms of product placement, and we are more than grateful to have been able to review them. Quite a few noteworthy shows as well this year - the final Munich show, CanJam London, and AVS Warsaw. This year, however, we have visited Paris for the first time, for the Paris Audio Video Show. Why does that matter? Because every show is an opportunity to interact with people who make this hobby great, and if I had a single New Year's resolution, I’d promise myself to visit even more.
