Welcome to Stjernholm Reviews – making Hi-Fi great again for music, movies, and the planet.
This channel is for everyone who loves great sound – from passionate audiophiles to curious music lovers and home-cinema fans. Expect honest, in-depth Hi-Fi and loudspeaker reviews, real listening impressions, and unfiltered comparisons of the world’s most inspiring audio gear.
Created by Morten Stjernholm – lifelong music lover, audio engineer, and systems designer – the channel also explores how design, usability, and simplicity shape our connection to music. When gear is intuitive instead of complex, people listen more and enjoy more. That message guides everything we do.

Digital audio BITS are BITS, right?
Thats one question keeps puzzling audiophiles... including me. So I studied and tested and studied and tested in order to make a no BS explainer, exlaning why the same bit-perfect file can sound different depending on how it reaches the DAC?
In this new HiFi Mysteries episode, I go back to first principles, talking about why out can experience this and what can be done to make it better.
If you care about digital audio, streamers, Roon, CD transports, or system architecture, this one sets the record straight.
Let the enlightening begin!
See you in the comments and please share the post in forums so we can spread the knowledge!

We feel that active speakers are the next evolution in speaker design, with its many advantages. Witch of these speakers would you be most interested in seeing reviewed on Stjernholm Reviews?

Remember the review of the Genelec 8381A, the five way, active main monitor? Genelec meant that this is for perfection seeking audiophiles too... and made a house-friendlier version with attractive finishes. Same product, dressed up for your home. See or revisit the big review here: https://youtu.be/hTLQjxYI9jQ?si=c9hdU...

SOUND CHEF – EPISODE 1 IS NOW LIVE
HiFi has become far too complicated, far too noisy and far too disconnected from the actual music experience. So we created something new.
Sound Chef is a simple idea:
A reseller builds a complete system that reflects their sound philosophy.
The Silverback Listening Team sits down, listens, reacts and shares the experience exactly as it unfolds.
Different ears, different music, different impressions — and a very real look at how a system actually performs.
Episode 1 was filmed at Lydspecialisten’s brand new 900 m² showroom in Aalborg.
Three rooms, three Sound Chefs and three completely different system visions.
If you want to hear a system succeed, struggle, surprise and teach, this is the one.
