Fresh from Munich

Fresh From Munich: What’s Next in High-Fidelity at Definitive

The Munich High End Show is the place where innovation meets obsession. Every May, the world’s most iconic hi-fi brands gather to unveil what’s next—and this year was no exception. At Definitive, we keep a close eye on these debuts because many of the products on display in Munich will soon find a home in our Bellevue showroom. Some aren’t here just yet, but rest assured: they’re on the way.

Here’s what caught our ears—and what you can expect to audition soon.

CH Precision D10: A Transport Without Compromise

The all-new CH Precision D10 SACD/CD Transport made its global debut in Munich, and it’s already redefining what disc playback can be. At the heart of the D10 is the proprietary MORSE mechanism, an in-house transport design weighing over 13 kilograms—suspended, stabilized, and built for absolute silence and precision. With support for SACD, CD, MQA-CD, and full digital output flexibility, this is CH’s most advanced digital source to date.

If you still love spinning discs—and demand reference-grade performance while doing it—the D10 deserves a place in your system. Expect to see (and hear) it soon at Definitive.

Wilson Audio: From Statement to Successor

The WAMM Master Chronosonic made a powerful appearance, reminding listeners why it's still the pinnacle of ultra-high-end loudspeaker design. Monumental in scale, surgical in detail, and emotionally unrelenting, it’s a system that resets the standard.

On the other end of the Wilson spectrum—yet equally compelling—the new Sabrina V quietly stole the spotlight. As the successor to the beloved Sabrina X, the V arrives with a massively upgraded midrange driver, derived from Wilson’s larger siblings. The new cabinet geometry, refined crossover, and trickle-down technology from the Chronosonic line give the Sabrina V the authority and refinement of a much larger speaker—without the footprint.

We’ll announce as soon as the Sabrina V is on the floor for demo soon around the Global launch on July 3rd. Until then, the anticipation is very real.

Bassocontinuo x Dan D’Agostino: Beauty Meets Brutality

At Munich, Bassocontinuo unveiled a special collaboration with Dan D’Agostino’s Relentless 800 mono amplifiers—a pairing that speaks to both brands’ commitment to uncompromising performance and visual impact. The matching isolation rack was designed specifically for the new Relentless, with custom dampening to handle its raw, commanding power.

We’re long-time champions of Dan’s work, and this collab is more than just aesthetics. It’s a reminder that your system’s foundation matters—and the right mechanical support unlocks performance you might not know you’re missing.

Innuos NAZARÉ: Built to Break the Mold

Lastly, Innuos dropped jaws with the unveiling of NAZARÉ, a brand-new reference-class music server and streamer. Designed from the ground up, NAZARÉ is engineered to push digital playback to its sonic limits—built on a newly developed OS, ultra-low-noise linear power supplies, and enhanced connectivity to mesh seamlessly into serious systems.

As always with Innuos, it’s not just about specs. It’s about musical immersion. 

Stay Tuned
