PF Brutus Award, 2015
The cutting edge Positive Feedback Brutus Awards are given at the end of each year by Dave Clark and Dr. David W. Robinson. They are awards for the best products that PFO’s editors have heard in their listening rooms during the past year.
Yarlung Records was once again selected as one of this year’s honorees.
Dr. Robinson writes:
“The song continues! Bob Attiyeh and Yarlung Records have continued their Quad DSD series of transfers from Bob’s masterpieces on analog tape (15 ips half-track quarter-inch tape). Working with Jared Sacks, Tom Caulfield, and the other folks at NativeDSD.com, Bob handles the raw transfers from his master tapes via the industry-leading Merging Technologies HAPI ADDA (which he now owns!) to Quad DSD. The inimitable Tom Caulfield, a Grammy winner himself, does the post-production work, and then sends the DSD files along to NativeDSD for publication. You can find Bob Attiyeh’s recordings in Quad DSD for sale HERE.
In fact, Bob’s work has been so stellar over the years, and his devotion to music and music education/opportunity for young musicians, that he will be honored by the Los Angeles and Orange County (LAOC) Audio Society in December. This is a real achievement…congratulations on your great work, Bob!
Yarlung Records repeats as a Brutus Award winner for this year…as it should be!”
Yarlung was profoundly honored to join Jared Sacks’ NativeDSD, several other fabulous labels and a very special Lifetime Achievement Award to the late Bobby Palkovic of Merlin Music Systems, in recognition of his enduring contribution to the High-End Audio Industry.
