In this issue

August isn’t the flashiest month on the gadget calendar, but that’s exactly what makes this issue of Stuff India stand out. This time, we’re tuning in to what you’re feeding your ears. In this edition’ cover feature, we dive headfirst into the realm of home audio, unpacking it with the precision of a perfectly mastered hi-fi track. From streaming setups and amplifiers to speakers, turntables, and everything in between, we've explored it all.
In this month’s review pit, we put the Nothing Headphone (1) through its paces—turns out, it drew more than just curious glances on the daily commute. The MG Cyberster cruised in looking like it just rolled off a sci-fi film set, while the MG M9 proved that electric family cars can pack both fun and futuristic flair. For the home cinema crowd, there’s Lumio Arc 7 and over in the audio corner, there's Sonodyne’s Sama 5000 soundbar.

FIRST PLAY WUCHANG: FALLEN FEATHERS

The titular heroine of Wuchang: Fallen Feathers wakes up in a cave alongside a large Buddha statue, with little more than a sword and a strange feathered affliction on her arm. It's a symptom of a disease that's been ravaging the people of 16th-century China, turning some into terrifying beasts. Wuchang, however, can harness this condition into a power to help her fight.

TECHNICS SC-CX700

The idea of an entire streaming system in a pair of speakers is no longer a novelty — so it's performance that separates the 'great' from the merely 'good'. Well, that and a finish that feels a bit like a carpet...
