In today's video I talk about the APOS & Audio-Technica headphone collab, the ATH-R70x Refine, as well as the APOS Gremlin tube amp. Both of these products are amazing in their own ways, and get even better when paired together. If this is the direction APOS is going with future in-house projects, the audio community should be very excited!
