As summer draws to a close, we're gearing up for what promises to be a busy September at Soundstage Hi-Fi — and we're very excited about what's coming up!
Growing up listening to hip-hop, we're thrilled to be hosting an event that celebrates the underground scene in collaboration with Velocity Press. Join us on Thursday, 18th September, for an evening that combines a book launch and DJ sets from author Ben Pedroche and the talented illustrator Dan Lish — both will also be in conversation with us here at the shop. It starts at 6pm and entry is FREE, so come and experience golden age hip-hop through our incredible TPI system. Bring the Noise!
While we're thinking about hip-hop culture, don't miss our latest blog post: ‘Technics SL-1200s: How Two Turntables Revolutionised Music – From Bronx Block Parties to Jungle’. We take a close look at the gear that shaped a generation of music & fashion.

We're applying the finishing touches to the listening room, ready for Saturday's dCS listening event. Come and join us from 11am—there are a handful of places left! You'll get to experience the new dCS LINA DAC X network music player, which looks and sounds incredible, and an exclusive listen to the Dan D'Agostino Pendulum Integrated Amp powering the Wilson Audio WATT/Puppy loudspeakers. It's guaranteed to be an immersive listening experience.

Which iconic speaker features in Kendrick Lamar's "Not Like Us" music video?
Kendrick Lamar’s ultimate diss track "Not Like Us" has a new video, and the stand-out star is a pair of iconic loudspeakers: the KEF Reference 105 Series II. These beautifully engineered speakers, crafted in 1979, were the top-of-the-line for KEF. They had a unique design sporting a moulded resin mid-range, and a tweeter sitting atop a powerful B-300 12-inch bass driver within a wooden cabinet.
