PS-HX500 turntable and DSD recorder

The reduced appearance signalizes precision and a high level of clarity, making it a visual reflection of the fundamental technical requirements of a DSD recorder.

PS VR Virtual Reality System

The overall balance of black and white is appealing, while the confident use of thermoplastic materials is masterful. All of this comes at a price that is very affordable for the technology. This product brings VR to the masses.

The execution is well suited for an innovative product and application, while the use of colors and materials mark an honest and clearly structured design approach. The design is clear, a logical reflection of the product's superb functionality.
