This is Stereophile’s 29th Product of the Year issue; the first appeared in 1992. That was the year I finished grad school. It seems like a long time ago.That year, the Loudspeaker of the Year was the $14,000/pair Sonus Faber Extrema. The winning digital source was the legendary Mark Levinson No.30 DAC—also approximately $14,000. JA later bought one, upgraded to 30.5, then to 30.6 status. He still has it.
