  2026/02/02

  Thomastik-Infeld's new viola strings, “RONDO GOLD,” are now available.
  “RONDO GOLD” is a high-quality viola string offering rich overtones and a supple response. It combines a deep, warm tone with clear articulation, making it suitable for a wide range of performance situations, from solo to ensemble. This model is recommended for players who prioritize expressiveness. Compared to the standard “RONDO” strings, “RONDO GOLD” features a warmer, more brilliant sound. It responds well across a wide dynamic range, from ppp to fff, naturally drawing out everything from delicate nuances to rich resonance. It is also compatible for use at A = 430 Hz. We encourage you to consider it.

• [Sound & Recording March] MACKIE Battery-Powered Subwoofer "Thump Sub GO" Review Published!

  

  2026/01/31

  A review of MACKIE's battery-powered subwoofer, the "Thump Sub GO," was featured in the March issue of "Sound & Recording Magazine."
  With up to two batteries, it offers approximately 12 hours of continuous playback. By combining it with a battery-powered portable PA speaker, such as the "Thump GO" speaker from the same series, you can create a PA system with deep bass that doesn't require a power supply. The reviewer praised the subwoofer, saying, "It adds even more dynamics, and it's amazing how it delivers power and quality despite its compact size." This subwoofer is recommended for those seeking a more professional sound for outdoor events, DJs, bands, and other performances where securing power is difficult. Be sure to check it out.
