I don’t think there’s ever been a time in HFC’s history where we’ve been privileged to feature so much exciting new kit and thankfully there’s no sign of that number abating. In this heady rush to deliver and discover fresh stuff, there are still many quality products that have been on the market for a while worthy of celebrating. So, with this in mind, we’ve broken with tradition in our Group Test this month and pitched three new amplifiers against a trio of modern classics to see whether everyone is playing catch up or if there
really is genuine advancement and innovation at play. Elsewhere you’ll find an appreciation of PJ Harvey, a five-star review of Kendrick Lamar’s new album and a rant about the multiple pitfalls of using a secondary ticketing agency. Don’t say you haven’t been warned!
