"It’s to the Stealth’s credit that it brought the music forward without imposing its own personality." Read the full review from The Audio Beat, here.

"The Stealth's sound has much in common with the Pioneer PLX-1000. But in my system, the Music Hall deck played quieter, cleaner, and with sharper focus than the cheaper Pioneer. It drew more life and energy out of my records. I credit the Stealth's tonearm, and maybe its plinth, because every cartridge I tried seemed to come to life — to light up — sounding quicker and more stable than it did on the Pioneer. I felt more connected to the artists and their recordings when using the Stealth. ... I can think of no record player under $2,000 that I'd rather use, Or recommend." — Herb Reichert, Stereophile, October 2022. Read the full review here.
