"As an APERIO owner since early 2023, I have been consistently delighted with its sound and performance, finding it ideal for the classical music I regularly enjoy. With the original APERIO already setting an incredibly high standard, I was intrigued when I learned that Warwick Acoustics had partnered with GoldenSound to further refine its sonic characteristics. Given my deep appreciation for the original, I was eager to experience firsthand what improvements the new APERIO GoldenSound Signature Edition (GSE) could bring.

I had the opportunity to audition the GSE version in a quiet setting for as long as I needed, and the differences were immediately apparent. The bass now extends deeper with greater texture, providing a more natural foundation for orchestral works. Instrument separation is further refined, allowing each instrument to be placed in space with remarkable clarity, making complex orchestral passages feel more lifelike. The soundstage has expanded, offering a greater sense of depth and realism, while the treble remains detailed yet smoother, preserving the timbre and authenticity of acoustic instruments. The overall effect is one of increased transparency and effortless musicality, making long listening sessions even more immersive. After two years of enjoying my own APERIO, I thought I knew its sound intimately—yet the GSE version elevates the experience to a new level of musical engagement and realism."
