Micromega HD Audio (Made in France) returns to Stereotypes Audio of Portland, Oregon. Many years ago we carried this great line of hifi audio products, and we are proud to once again carry this high quality/high value line. All of the Micromega products feature an elegant slim line design. To add to their value, we sell them at the MAP price (less than list). (more…)

Somehow we let this one slip through the web blog cracks…. we have permanently on our showroom floor, the well reviewed Simaudio Moon 600i Integrated Amplifier. We’ve been putting it through the full paces over the past month or so and are completely smitten! For those that loved the Simaudio Moon i-5 and i-7, you’re gonna LOVE this new Moon 600i! Rated conservatively at 125 watts per channel (into 8ohms) in a dual mono design, this thing can really move music! It integrates many of Simaudio’s new technologies and advancements, but you really just need to hear it. And it has the usual gorgeous Simaudio case work. Can you feel the love yet already? (TAS gushes about it here). Come give it a listen!

Stereotypes Audio of Portland, Oregon has just picked up the Micromega HiFi line from France. We’re still unboxing, breaking them in and putting them through all of the paces, but the early sampling has shown great promise. We had a demo unit that we really liked and are hearing about their great value when it comes to features, power and sound. We plan to have several of their products such as their Pre-Amplifiers, Integrated Amplifiers and Power Amplifiers. Stay tuned for more information as we dig in further. To find out more about their line, check here. Otherwise stop in soon and we’ll be happy to give you an audition! Here’s a review from last year of their AS-400 D/A Integrated Amp.

We recently got the new Marantz M-CR603 Receiver in, and we’re still finding out new things that it can do. It’s even AirPlay compatible with a system update. Think of it as a compact swiss army knife of audio, streaming and networking audio, and it STILL has a CD drive. How rare are physical disc transports getting these days? It will play CDs, CD-Rs, MP3s and WMAs. It’s also able to network via Ethernet using DLNA. It streams Pandora, Rhapsody and Napster, all while driving up to four speakers. Come in to find out all that this overachiever can do! Read the review.

We have so much new stuff in this week, it may take a day to post all of the info about it! But we wanted to let you know you should come check us out this weekend! Here’s what is new: Stereotypes Audio is now a Harbeth Speaker dealer again! We have the Harbeth Compact 7SE3s in Cherry on demo. We also have the new compact Focal XS Book powered speakers, that are very cool looking, sound great, and make a wonderful partner to your desktop computer setup, or TV. We have the new DAC Magic Plus from Cambridge Audio on demo. We also have received word that Rega has officially announced the Rega RP6 turntable! They should be in either end of the year or beginning of January! We plan to have a red floor model, but expect a whole plethora of colors for the RP6! This is a model that will be somewhere between a P5 (discontinued and gone) and P7… but expect sound near on par with the P7. We expect great things from this new table! Come visit us and see all of the wonderful new goodies!!!!

We had a great time at this year’s Rocky Mountain AudioFest Show. This was our first trip to the show in Denver, and apparently it was one of the biggest ones yet. A great time was had by all, good music, great audio, amazing food, and even our hotel had over 15 amazing microbrews on tap. Does it get any better? We really enjoyed hooking up with several of our favorite distributors and brands. (more…)

The new Bird from Focal is here! If you haven’t heard any of the buzz yet on this amazing compact system, prepare to be blown away. The Bird is a concept line of Focal loudspeakers created to satisfy the expectations of music lovers in terms of both innovation and ease of use. Maximum music in the smallest possible size in an affordable package. All with a strong identity.  It’s great for the office as a desktop computer set up, allowing for the main unit with sub to sit below the monitor, or as a small room 2.1 system to hang right on the wall with your flat screen TV, a kitchen, bedroom. Anywhere you want an easy set up, but amazing sound. (more…)

The gorgeous new Simaudio 600i Dual-Mono Integrated Amplifier is now on demo at Stereotypes Audio (Portland, Oregon). This was well reviewed in The Absolute Sound and Soundstage, and we have it in the stunning black/silver combination with it’s companion Simaudio 650D, which is their new CD transport and DAC unit. (it’s bigger sibling has also been heavily praised). This unit is slim, sleek and beautiful. You can find out more on the units here and here. (The older highly awarded Moon i-7 was replaced by the 700i and 600i, with the 600i being the 125watt version). Wow, we have a lot of new gear on demo that you REALLY have to come in and listen to! By the way, Simaudio products have a ‘trade-up’ program. Just ask us about it.

We just got the new Rega Brio-R in, and we’re breaking it in along with the new PSB Imagine Mini speakers. This combo may represent one of the best values for top notch sound for the least price ever! The Brio has gone up slightly in cost, but has gone down in size to the smaller form factor that the Rega DAC has. In fact they make a great pair together. (BTW, the R stands for Remote, which is very nice). (more…)
