Brian Kahn has been an audiophile since his teenage years. His first components came from the now defunct Vector Research and he has been hooked on listening to good music through a nice stereo ever since. In the early 1990’s Brian was into car audio and competed in that circuit while he was in college and could not setup a proper home stereo. Brian started reviewing audio gear in the mid-1990’s for AudioRevolution.com. He has reviewed audio/video gear for several publications and has been a repeat featured guest on television news to discuss gear and related issues.
